Jalops here: “everything is grey, white, black, we need colors!”... Color shows up, jalops here: “OMG you won’t catch me in that, barf...”

“Your cars will stay with us therefore they can’t be used in any more public nuisance or sideshows. Until the DA has adjudicated your case. Then, we will determine whether your car is a public nuisance and if it will be destroyed or not.”
Once again, I am struck by something.
For me, it’s the 2024 Infiniti QX80 (MSRP: $74,150 - $88,450). I’ve driven one as a rental car and couldn’t believe the price they charge for this land barge. It’s old, slow, inefficient, large (but not roomy), cumbersome to drive, and, at least to my eyes, not even great to look at.
I’m surprised this was so far down the list, and there’s only one mention. I hate Atlanta. But it is cheaper than flying into Birmingham...
I look forward to the niche fetish porn parody “Top Parts.”
And the shitty parking job.
No doubt. He is a true enthusiast AND he is incredibly annoying.
LOL ol Shmee, I dig his stuff, though yes he can be a bit grating. But you have to give it to him, he is almost certainly the hardest working dude in car YouTube. Drops videos every single day, or damn near, has almost no team I think maybe 2 or 3 people behind the scenes, and does a lot of, maybe all his own editing.…
See I like Tavarish, because well he is just a normal dude. Started, and still does a lot of the mechanical work himself. Yes his video’s are long and drawn out, well so is working on a car. And while yes it’s all super cars for now, that’s YouTubes fault not his, Matt Farah has talked about it on the Smoking tire…
Ugh. Picking a car from the Malaise Era is like choosing to die from syphilis or dysentery. That said I’d go with my first car, a ‘75 Monte Carlo that Mom got new and was driven by my brother and sister before I got it as a rusty, two-toned (Dad was a rattle can Picasso) rotted quarter panel beast. But I still loved…
I guess I’m just bitter about it. A lot of glitz and glamour is placed on the tech industry. After being in it for 2 decades its anything but that. Take away the free or discounted food and whatever touchy-feely stuff and its just another drag of a job. Except its worse. I had NINE different jobs in that time period.…
I never stop on the highway for any reason unless my car were to become disabled. I tell my wife—who drives with my 8 year old son—if you get a flat, keep driving until you get off the highway. Ruin the tire, the wheel, whatever. Never trust anyone else if the consequences would be dying.
I spent 22 years in the tech industry and no- people do not in fact learn anything. When I was younger I worked at two startups and within a few weeks it was clear to me that the founders had not really worked out the whole moneymaking part of the business at all. Needless to say both of them failed. And its still…
I like it for the same reasons, and will raise you several more.
1. Lisa has her own money and doesn’t have to put up with his crap. It is visibly good for him.
2. He very clearly shows the ridiculousness of UK farming laws, small councils, and the vagaries of nature affecting food supply.
3. Charming Charlie. No…
To me, May, Clarkson and Hammond are sort of like the Three Stooges.
