Dude. You said something that was 100% wrong, and when you got called on it you can’t even admit it.

What are you talking about? 18GW of new natural gas power generation is coming online in the next 2 years alone: http://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=26312

I see you’ve never driven an electric car in the city.

Another Trustafarian slapped in the face by reality

$28k? The seller is off by a decimal place. Super CP. For $28k you could get a much better camper.

Impala SS, all the way. Great for a preacher doing a Darth Vader impression

This is why:

It’s a joke, relax.

Troll level: gold

Evidently their approach to rust prevention was a lot different on their commercial vans than their luxury cars...

Nobody in L.A. is actually from L.A. though (except my ex) , or even from California. Most folks came from somewhere else.

Seriously. You could hear Protégés and early Sprinters rusting in parking lots all across the salt belt

Price out full coverage insurance before you buy that WRX or SS...

According to the story, no bonds were issued by the state, so the damage to Nevada taxpayers should be minimal if/when the project fails.

That poor car. I had a $500 ‘91 civic wagon, it lasted to 336,000 miles before the engine let go, with relatively little maintenance and few repairs. Also, is jalopnik now glorifying people who drive dangerously on public roads - in the rain through school zones, no less?

I asked because I specifically buy properties that are zoned to do what I wanted to do with it (commercial) or specifically *aren’t* covered by HOA rules, local zoning 0r other covenants and /or deed restrictions (residential). In both cases, my neighbors know (or should know) the rules. I play by the rules with my…

My ‘93 civic si has the same footprint as my ‘13 Fit Sport. Performance is about the same. Footprint is exactly the same. Except I can put 4 six foot tall guys in my Fit comfortably, with enough headroom and legroom. My Fit has ABS, stability control, traction control, no timing belt or distributor to service, 8…

The a pillar windows are more of a one-box vehicle shape minivan styling necessity (with the huge, steeply raked windshield like a GM dustbuster van) than a comment on their thickness.

A Chevy Aveo rental, to drive to Key West from Miami. 19k on it, and it was falling apart. No power, bad mileage, the finishes on the door panel, steering wheel and other interior surfaces had already worn through, but at least it was noisy and handled poorly too! The worst highway car, ever. Weak to nonexistent A/C…

The point - you missed it. These were regular customers, their first visit wasn’t for a blown head gasket. The reliable cars were the ones I saw year in and year out for routine maintenance and annual inspection/emissions, brakes, etc. and experienced few problems otherwise. These Jeeps, VWs and other unreliable cars…
