So do butch lesbians. That demographic group is responsible for making FJ among the contemporary cars with highest resale value (on percentage basis).

Fun to remember how Toyota failed to see the potential for problems with Scion’s naming convention.

No. The problem was actually quite different. Toyota was WRONG, not indifferent.

“Fisker produced the Karma in Finland before it was shipped overseas. So, maybe it’s not a total shelling of U.S. taxpayers after all.”

I don’t get Jalopnik humor.

Does anyone and Kinja really think “Lose his shit” is okay for a headline?

Why mandate anything? If the “mandate” is for 35 mpg, and the largest vehicle that can achieve that seats just 5 passengers, but the Ramirez family has four children and lots of sports equipment...and they all cannot fit in a mandate-compliant Honda Accord. Does having two compliant cars instead make more sense than…

“...and also up the automaker’s electric vehicle output in the state, agreeing to offer three new electric cars in California and sell 5,000 annually.”

I challenge anyone to provide more honest description of why cheerleaders are on the payroll. Mr. Elite here was just a little to public.

American manufacturers don’t want to build marginally profitable (or money losing!) small cars either. But CAFE standards essentially mandate them. Think, for just a moment, how ridiculous that is. It would be as if Government required Apple to make dumb phones with actual dials...not because anybody wants them, but…

Jezebel has jumped the shark so profoundly. It is my hope that brains are soon reunited with their respective craniums.

Thanks to Amazon hosting vintage Top Gear episodes, I re-watched series 7-10, which I consider peak TG. Almost all episodes were lightning in a bottle...containing an exuberance and joy that, over time, has become more mature and in many ways, predictable.

“low-volume assembly plant at Multimatic in Ontario”

I love how a car I have personally driven for hundreds of thousands of miles begins to feel like a good pair jeans. The seat is worn-in just so......perfectly conformed my personal butt. It becomes more than just comfortable...it kinds becomes part of you.....

Foresters are successfully marketed to coastal lesbians. Not sure they are exactly enthusiasts.

These are all vehicles purchased by non-enthusiasts. As such, it is mostly irrelevent to Jalopnik readers

Hmmm. This is another piece that leaves me wondering what Jalopnik wants to be.

Pretty sure your headline writer/editor could rework that to make it a bit more compelling. That head does not incline me to want read the piece. At all.

Uber is NOT a taxi service. It is just an App. Apps need permits? Balderdash!
