I don’t get the contemporary hate for the SC. Sure, it was terrible value new, but now, they’re a cheap, V8, RWD convertible Toyota. That sounds better than a Solara to me.

I have 2 things to say about this.

‘plane owners are among the moneyed crowd”
Complete and utter bullshit. We’ve had to fight that idiotic myth since the 1903s.
Visit a local public GA airport, talk to pilots and owners then get back to us.
Once last point, where the hell do you think newly minted commercial pilots moving the airlines come from?
If you say…

Why do these assholes all look like thumbs?

I rode with a guy that did that.   He and I got a free upgrade to something like Business First on an international flight.  He sat down, made sure his seat belt was properly buckled and poured six shots of Jack down his throat.  He passed out before take off and woke up when we landed.

The police should set up a combination DUI checkpoint/mental health screening checkpoint there; there’s no way those people aren’t drunk, high, or severely addled.

Good. Fuck people that can’t control their tempers.

I love trucks and even I don’t get these.

I don’t mean to be rude, but I think you are part of an extremely small group of people that does it that way.

I’m an aggressive, but courteous driver. I think it’s important to respect others on the road and let them know what your intentions are. Situational awareness is paramount. That said, these are the four things that bug me more than anything. In order of annoyance, here’s my list. All of these things are just…

Looked good. Rwd. V8. That was enough back then

Pointless death as a result of one of the more pointless trends of my lifetime.

The first logical comment in this thread. While my instincts immediately led me down this path, I'm realizing the cancel culture is way overboard here. You all need to lighten up, Francis. 

I don’t know, sounds to me like this guy was messing around with his co-pilot, the rather absurd and over the top statements seem pretty clearly sarcasm. 

The best part is they drive like a massive douche and then they always, ALWAYS, wind up parked at the same light as everyone they passed.

Man what the fuck are you talking about. The idea of traffic stops are regressive. Their cousin, the high speed pursuit, is looked at with horror in other countries as a uniquely American Wild West ass way to nab speeders/ other crime committers. The idea we just have thousands of police lurking on the side of the…

You say this is the most idiotic thing you’ve ever seen on Jalopnik, then give an example of exactly the kind of bullshit traffic stop interaction that the article talks about. It seems like there is a huge continuum between “This article is exactly right” and “This is one of most idiotic articles ever posted on…

Agreed, the problem isn’t that cops pull people over. It’s that being pulled over seems arbitrary and divorced from actual danger to the public. I know I’ve shit myself blowing past a hidden cop going 80mph in a 65 mph (to my desince that was in the middle of the got-dang Mojave desert and I could safely be running…
