This Jeep pushes all the right buttons. If FCA built several dozen just for the Toledo market, they’d sell each and every one of them at well over list price.

While I applaud FCA for investing large amounts of $$$ in the Toledo plant, I have reservations about essentially placing all of our eggs in one basket. With the Cherokee being sent to Illinois, the Toledo plant essentially becomes a one platform facility. When gas prices start to go up again, and it will eventually,…

Not saying a 2 series BMW isn’t a great car, but I’m not so sure about the “luxury” part. Getting into and out of a fairly low sports coupe every day would really be a grind for many, especially if it has heavily bolstered seats. A luxury car is a good ride, decent handling and a fair amount of interior/exterior toys.…

It sure is pretty though. Just what every self important CEO needs to be driving when summering in the Hamptons.

It probably doesn’t help that I’m drunk, or maybe it does,

It could have been worse, the bear could have begun eating the car. “Bear, stop eating my car, bear! Why are you eating my car! Stop bear!”

You have no idea how many equity loan appraisals I used to do in the early 00's before the shit hit the fan in ‘07 - ‘08. Typically they were exterior only, with no interior walk-through at all. These types of appraisals are pretty much non existant now, as the amount of equity people have in their homes has…

Fair point, but the more important question, regarding Volvo’s ownership, is where are parts sourced from (local or China), and who & where was the majority of engineering developed? I don’t believe any of these cars are actually built in China, at least none that are for Euro/USA consumption.

Will autonomous cars be able to take voice commands? I see self driving cars on the highway, or navigating a pre-determined course, but what I would be interested in is the ability of telling the car where to go in real time. I spend a good deal of my time in my car, navigating either city streets or rural roadways.…

I’ve never owned a car nice enough to steal. And I’ve parked my car in some pretty dicey neighborhoods in the past 15+/- years I’ve been working as an appraiser. I’ve stealed myself several times to the possibility of coming out of a bank owned POS house only to find an empty space where my car used to be. I’d be more…

I saw this a few months ago on Youtube, and watched the whole damn thing. How is it a old English gent can patiently assemble an out of date lawn mower, and just make it entrancing to watch?

Post More Stuff Jalopnik Editors! Anything to beat down that self congratulatory GAWKER post. Please, in the name of all that is holy. A Chevette doing a weak ass burn-out, some douche-bro talking shit about tuned Hondas. Just anything. Please?

I always liked the ventilated A-Pillars. Those looked awesome. Someone should have stole that design element and put it into production.

And, bookmarked for later use in conversations with my brother in-law regarding the Donald. Awesome gif.

I’m with you on this. I’m of a certain age where I have wonderful memories of late 70's early 80's motor vehicles, and there is no comparison between those and modern cars. The reason Chevy doesn’t make a $30k stripper model of the Suburban is because of the vast used car market for these things. Today, you can buy a…

I would suggest Jalopnik actually buy a “NPOCP” winner and see if it actually works as a family car. For instance, today’s car was an $1,800 mid 80's Maxima, as I don’t think the Gawker Media Empire can afford too expensive of a car. Would this car work for a family on a tight budget? Can it fit what the modern family…

No School like Old School. Plymouth knew how to do it back in the early 70's, on my parents Fury III. Those indicator lights were so far away on that hood, planes would make an approach, thinking they were the nearby airport run-way lights.

As the OP asked “when did VW make the best GTI”, I was referencing when the cars were made, not that someone couldn’t purchase one now and have it shipped to the states. Although even that is fairly rare, as it is still pretty costly in relation to the value of mid 80's hatchback.

Keep your unobtainable to the U.S. cars out of this conversation!

See, now you’re making me miss the ‘86 Golf my family had when I was a teenager/college student. Man that was a great little car. Tough as nails too, as I wrecked it three times. The final, and fatal one, was into a fire hydrant on the drivers side. Those little fuckers are heavy! Bent the frame rail and put a nice…
