I’m sorry. I’ve watched the video 467 times now and I don’t see what the problem is.

One thing to mention:
So, you mean to say, in 15 years, one with an original top will be a “Holy Grail”?
At least the front didn’t fall off.
It’s the best-looking Lamborghini in years. Maybe since the Diablo. Would I like to see it advance car design? Sure, but with modern car technology that would require that it either be an EV (which people would howl even louder about) or that it fly (which would make it like every other flying car in that it would…
5th: I know it makes Dave Ramsey cry, but I like leasing and that’s that. My pickup is paid off and well maintained and should last forever. But the mama-mobile is going to be a little bit of a splurge. I want her and the kids in something new, safe, reliable, and under warranty. Other guys golf, gamble, and buy…
Whoa, whoa, whoa there. These contributors have other qualifications, too! They also have to know that CUVs are Satan’s carriage and every one of them has to be lambasted as worse than the heat death of the universe or pineapple on pizza or something.
#humblebrag....
Exactly...folks who were following the GM plan (start in a Chevy, die in a Caddy) were in the Olds demographic at the time. Combine that with enough of a “buy American” crowd and enough folks who still hated the Japanese and you land...in an Olds dealer buying a Cutlass.
There used to be a saying in business: “No-one ever got fired for buying IBM.” IBM wasn’t the best or the cheapest, but it was the standard. Once you decide to deviate from the standard, any problem that crops up is your fault, because you decided not to just buy IBM.
The Cutlass I sort of get. It’s the quintessential American land barge. It was comfortable and sold at a price middle class Americans could afford. The Cutlass Ciera- what a miserable little car. Story time:
Well the ‘78 was new so it makes a bit of sense to include the year, but the 70s was the decade where automakers started to understand that making model changes every year was actually adding a lot of spending to the bottom line. Continuing to say the year made it feel like something new to those used to that…
That being said, did the police officer identify himself as such? Give proper commands? That part of the story is a little unclear as of right now. Hopefully there’s footage somewhere.
I don’t find the story hard to believe because I don’t think a guy that stole a new Charger wouldn’t do that, I find it hard to believe simply because I don’t trust the police.
For once I’m not that skeptical of the story…at least the part where the passenger exited the car with a handgun and pointed it at the driver of the Charger. That seems upsettingly believable.
The skepticism is highly warranted, but I could see this happening since the unmarked cop car also appeared to be a Dodge Charger. ALL of the cars at these illegal “sideshow” events are Chargers or Challengers. Racing and hooning Chargers in Detroit is so common it’s reached meme status.
Boy, ford really is serious about competing with the wrangler. I didn’t think they would be able to match the experience completely like this, but they’ve nailed it.
Respondents theorize the honeycomb texture could be related to problems with lamination that wouldn’t have been visible upon application, but later revealed themselves in time.
Wow, they’re really angling for the Wrangler crowd after all!
Never buy a car in its first model year!
