The Youtuber is an idiot, but also, these were never seriously intended for baja style off-roading. They’re meant for being parked in the front row by the valets so everyone can admire how much debt you’re in in your quest to look wealthy. This might have more horsepower, but I do not think this would outperform a…

“people want some autonomy, but still want overall control over their vehicles,”

Full size spares on trucks are normal tires with normal speed ratings, not space savers with low limits.

Rory, this is obviously a heartfelt piece and I appreciate that. As with almost everything you publish here, it’s very well done.

I think we should all chip in and buy this property for David Tracy to store his Jeep collection and start a museum.

Since no one died, some leniency to the trucker should be in order.

I’ve worked behind many a counter in my time, and I wouldn’t have handed it over if there was no proof she paid for it, either...you know, out of the repellant self-interest of not wanting to lose my job. This guy may be a straight-up racist prick, to be sure. But the key question that isn’t answered here is- did she…

He sold it to his insurance company.

As far as spirited driving goes I’m totally in the personal responsibility camp. Not only should a licensed driver know better but that kind of driving would be against traffic laws.

I a lot of the design made it through to the eventual Charger... I mean, look at it, lots of similarities with mostly the front and back changed.

A 2+2 crossover with suicide doors and 175mi range is going to go over like a lead balloon. What the hell are Mazda thinking? This is like something from the Crap Era, when EVs were weird and impractical. Mazda knows how to make a decent car that Americans will buy, so why did they make this instead?

If you really have to be told not to put an industrial strength adhesive in your hair you shouldn’t be left alone with a glass of water.

I really don’t get why dealers (and manufactures) still use the misleading lease payment thing. When I sold cars, almost every single time someone came in looking for the advertised $499/month payment and were presented with the real numbers being $100-200 more, they got mad and left. We almost never converted those…

Every slide show, I resize the window to half of my screen and refresh.  Then it’s just a scroll.  It’s not something we should have to do, but at least (for now) it helps the user experience.

“Captiva” is apparently Chevrolet for “leftovers”.

Agree with $0 down on the lease when possible. GAP insurance doesn’t get your down payment back.

I mean if I was retired owned a 2 post lift, the entire contents of a Snap On truck, 50 years of mechanical knowledge (and not the shitty Scotty Kilmer kind) and truly hated the sight of my spouse or family then yeah I could totally see this in my garage.

and not to belittle the seriousness of this, someone could have been killed. However the crowd changes from a group of protesters into a gang of rioters when they imprison civilian vehicles. I’m all for protesting the wrong actions going an, but I am 100% against surrounding cars and threatening other civilians trying…

You get a call five minutes after reading The Morning Shift. It’s someone with a British accent you can’t understand because they’re also crying, and they tell you that you are now in charge of Jaguar Land Rover. What should you do?

“You mean there are TWELVE different colors for my button lights? And they’re only $2.99 each? Why yes, I do need all of them.”
