You get what you pay for. Coincidentally, Jalopnik, like most of the internet, is free.

Not really, there have always been tiers to it. This isn’t the New York Times, but even in the heyday of print media there were plenty of more casual papers and zines with lower editorial standards.

I think Nick Mason still drives his as he’s owned it forever.  The joy from Brian at being in its presence and in the passenger seat while Nick “just” drives it is priceless too.

Wow, that is an absolute dumpster fire of a headline.

Good point about the truck size having a mandated connection to building height.

Lol the fire trucks are the problem. You know a city school bus is 35-40 feet too right?

They usually have ambulances at fire stations that will respond to medical events, not the large fire truck.

I have a number of firefighters in my family, and my father specifically was involved in purchasing trucks for the volunteer department he was captain for.

It is interesting that in older European cities the size of all vehicles is ultimately limited so in general everything is smaller scale vs US where we’re just bigger in every way even in our old cities.

Really? Picking on fire trucks?? What’s next? The ice cream truck music is too loud and killing kids!!!

Sorry, it must have slipped my mind while also plugging the Baconator and the 2 for $3 breakfast. I didn’t eat until 2 today, so I was writing while hungry.

Can’t help noticing that the article plugs what is apparently a rival McDonald’s product, but avoids mentioning whatever brand this store is.
