But in the eye of labor laws, 40 hours per week is full time. If you work less than that in a week, you’re part time. It’s black and white. That’s why companies cap hours at 38 or 39 hours.

I KNEW IT! VALIDATION!!

My apparently cheap, junk GTI is doing just fine, thank you very much.

Interesting, I didn’t know that.

Nah, it was the V6. They were held back by that awful four-speed auto.

My mom had a purple one, with a gray interior and a black top. Sure it was slow, but I always thought it was kind of cool, and she loved it.

As if asking about CEO compensation would actually change that number.

The action went right over the camera guy’s head too.

It’s not quite as tight as you think.

No point in telling Jalopnik to get off that particular high horse. Every time they bring it up, the conveniently skip the part where no one has parts available so we can’t replace the airbags even if we wanted to. They then ignore us when we point it out, time and again.

If I’ve been thinking about experimenting with Japanese whisky for the first time, what should I get, now that there’s a bit of a shortage? I like all kinds of whisky, but my go-to has always been Lagavulin 16.

And which one gets the Jalopnik bump?

I was in the same boat as you, but I needed a major suspension overhaul, and transmission problems were looming over the horizon (gotta love those lifetime fluids that can’t be changed, right?).

Good god that was a fun read. Thanks for sharing!

I can live with the colors. The missing grille trim and dumb aftermarket lights, though? That’s a paddlin’.

All I can see is that it’s crooked.

VW, why you make Cap sad?

Yeah I’m not sold on the new Vantage, if I’m honest.

Putting backups behind a paywall is a very Nintendo thing to do.

You listening, Lexus? Here’s a giant grille that looks amazing!
