“If you can’t see my mirrors...”

The entire market had lowered the bar. If you wanted a RWD performance sedan that wasn’t a Cadillac or German/Japanese luxury car, what choice did you have?

If anything the pictures make me believe that the guy had modifications done professionally and correctly. When I see ads for souped up Camaros, Mustangs, Corvettes, etc sitting on gravel driveways outside a run down looking house, I usually assume they want to get rid of it because they can’t afford to fix what they…

According to Google, millennial are 20-37 years old. I’m 30, so I guess I’m nearly peak millennial. These cars are popular/nostalgic with us because they existed and were popular when we were most impressionable.

This is the only way for longer vehicles to get in to spots in some parking lots.

No, but it looks different, and more importantly, newer and more expensive.

I saw snow yesterday.  Snow!  In January!  Can you believe it?  I couldn’t.

I’m still thinking that someone added up the cost of anything fuel economy or emissions related and said they’re all unnecessary and costly. Catalytic converters, EGR systems, urea systems for diesels. I wouldn’t be surprised if they added in the difference in cost of fuel injection vs a carb, and cost of carbon fiber…

I like the way you completely contradicted yourself there.

Jalopnik always seems to forget that they’re not the target audience for marketing gimmicks like this. Features like this aren’t for you, they’re for the borderline enthusiasts who want to impress their passengers that they want to pull in from Subaru, VW, etc.

Oh so you read about how much fun David had replacing the clutch in his!

I can’t say I disagree entirely with anything you said. The most recent TGT episode was painful to watch at times. I felt they had everything going really well during seasons 2 and 3, so that was a bit of a disappointment.

It’s weird.  There always used to be an article about each new Top Gear and Grand tour episode.  I saw absolutely nothing about the Grand Tour episode that came out a few weeks back.

Go inside and wait for the person in front of you in line to have a conversation with the cashier before having them find the most obscure pack of cigarettes and an assortment of lotto tickets before taking 5 minutes to find the 3 pennies they need to make exact change?

1st Gear: Our neighborhood’s facebook page has had people reporting their credit card data being stolen at all 4 of the gas stations in our part of town. I had two separate cards compromised at gas stations in 2019 (neither in my home town).  I don’t know what the right move is here, but as a consumer it seems obvious…

I have nothing against this car. I’ve always liked the hot Civics and wanted one badly when I was driving around in my regular Civic EX back in high school and college.

Why does it say “elf 3” on that Highlander?

I guess as long as they can keep Fusion production numbers in the mid-upper 5 digit range, it’s worth it to keep around until it needs major investment for government compliance.

This is great advice. When I bought my current truck, I thought I was going to break the key off trying to unlock the tailgate a few times. Popped the service cover off, cleaned it up a bit inside, sprayed some POR-15 along the bottom hem (and left it to dry before the next step), lubricated the mechanism and lock…

The current TITAN has really been around since 2010?  I thought it was like 2014 or something.
