Hm, I’m gonna say yes, this accident could be the culprit. Surprised this wasn’t a total loss (I guess it was a $140k car...)

But have you ever had to LITERALLY climb into your car?

You have no idea how relieved I am that your wardrobe choice was a costume (no matter how poorly executed it was)

Yeah looks much better if the pillars are not also contrasting

My view is biased, because I have a reverse commute (Palo Alto -> SJ in the AM). Any other direction and agreed, the only time you’re going 80 is 2 AM

CUV/SUVs with a different color roof than the body. I think this all started when certain manufacturers (ahem, BMW) started putting out black roofs to emulate the raw carbon look (even though the roofs weren’t actually carbon). Then a decade later it trickled down to the general masses in an attempt to make their cars…

Depends on where you live. You would be relegated to the slow lane in LA, where everybody drives 90 (the one hour a year there’s no traffic). On 101/280 in the bay area, where I live, most people drive 80 in the fast lane, which means you don’t have much juice left if you want to get around someone.

Why in God’s green Earth is ‘white contrast roof’ an option (Volvo what have you done?!)

OR, David was forced into this trade in exchange for the landlord allowing him to park his non-running Jeeps all over the front yard.

Exactly, but forget about the ‘secret’ part. GM is obviously going to require some sort of buy-in to be part of their network (re specifically showing Exxon/Shell and Dunkin Donuts)

Wait, how is nobody asking what the note was all about? “You parked incorrectly”? What does that mean? Did someone leave it there hoping it would explain the damages? Did someone park the Tesla incorrectly at MB? Is it a clue to a murder mystery?

If you want to be specific the article ACTUALLY says “they doubt they’ll ever get either company to pay for the full amount they believe they are owed.” The owners wrote up an invoice for 5x the actual damages. They’ll still get paid the $20k in actual damages.

The broken down Amazon boxes are what really transitions the table to a bench

Hey at least you have higher standards than David Tracy

Check the last sentence of the article (under the picture)

That thing looks absolutely massive (alternatively, it makes a small Jason look even smaller)

This was running through my head the entire time I was watching that video

Fun, sporty manual that’s practical in the snow for under $40k? WRX Limited. You could even go upto a WRX STI for that budget.

They’re only dating it based on the date stolen and registration. It could have been stolen, garaged, then driven last month and crashed. Maybe the thief was waiting for the statue of limitations to expire? Sounds like a case for Jalopnik Detectives

Rezvani and his lead designer are both of Iranian descent (not sure if they’re first gen immigrants), so it’s not surprising they would miss a minor detail like this. I’d be willing to bet over half of Americans don’t even know this.
