Whenever I watch these videos my inner accountant comes out: “How do they pay for these things? How many millions of dollars worth of machinery is sitting in that mud pit? How much does it cost to run these things for a weekend?”

Just this morning on my jog I thought: “Damn, I see so many of these stupid-ass Nissan Rogues on the road.” Now I know why.

A Wrangler competitor it is not. But.... it is an interesting, if not a bit disjointed, design study. It’s kinda like a RAV4 wearing a “Bitchin’ Off Roader” costume to a Halloween party; an extremely over the top, doesn’t actually exist in real life, “Bitchin’ Off Roader” costume.

Neutral: Poor man’s Land Rover; all SUVs and trucks. It worked for Isuzu.

Talk to me about this wheatgrass ice cream

Not surprised by the Discovery Sport. I drove a base one as a loaner and it was terrible. I don’t see many on the road here in AZ. Are they selling any?

that maneuver at 1:41 from the lead gif

yes, but the side mirrors would only cause $100 in damage, whereas this.....

I honestly believe that if you were to ask 100 Jalops where on that Jeep the absolute worst place would be to tie a recovery strap, this chosen location would be the number one response.

Another Rap-Battle Headline (second one of the day) brought to you by Mr. Orlove.

supposedly that is there to comply with bumper height regulations

Driving double the speed limit in the city is not a good way to relieve stress.

Something I absolutely love about my LR4 is it’s cavernous cargo area. The Seats all fold completely flat and it will hold more cargo than my old Tacoma. The height is a huge benefit in the LR4.

In other words: it should be a wagon

And each one has a story about the load that was held hostage when its owner attempted to open the tailgate and the handle broke off in his/her hand.

Confirmed - had to fill both tanks.

My 2 year old likes to throw driveway pebbles at my car. The other day I drove for a few miles with the screeching sound of a pebble wedged somewhere in the front rotor. That was loud.

Car wood was a real problem for me in HS
