Im  a lib dem.  Biracial kids, I have a 2020 Silverado because I actually need it for work and whatnot.  Also to be honest most crew cab trucks are just dad minivans.  Plenty of cab space and a big bed is pretty hard to give up once you have it.

You joke but whenever I talk politics on this family of sites that’s the IMMEDIATE reaction.

If you missed the last couple decades, journalism and print media are dead, blogging and opinions (well, opinion, singular. Only the ones approved by the residents of NYC and LA) are in! Facts are dumb, and if your needs are different than the residents of those 2 cities, you’re racist and hate science (that doesn’t…

And yet you seemed to fit very comfortably in a 2-D pane of glass with a couple other people, Zod. Get over it.

A negative GM article on Jalopnik. And it craps on a ”big and stupid” truck, too.

The thing with the Fiero was, by the time they finally got it right nobody wanted one anymore.  Yet another classic example of a good idea ruined by poor execution.

Every GM Jalopnik article ever

I touched it, and both rocker panels immediately disintegrated.

I’m now banned from Vietnam. 

Wow, Game of Thrones and Let it Go!

Beleive it or not a lot of people really liked these cars when they were new. They could be had with an inline six whose starter had more power, or a slightly more potent V8 inhaling through a drinking straw.

When they first showed the cube, I had the same thought.  “Oh, so all the Romulan refugees are renovating a Borg cube like a fixer-upper apartment complex.” 

I am an idiot who worded his response poorly. I meant to say that Thunberg was the one that I respected. I just worded it badly.

I do believe that she was spewing hate, and I worded my response poorly. I was trying to say that I respect Thunberg, and that I hate people who use personal insults against people they don’t agree with. I’m not Thunberg’s biggest fan, but I’m not going to insult her, especially about something she has no control…

Nothing will kill the SUV in the US, people love them too much. 

Counter counterpoint: this is stage 4. No mention of range, and a completely irrational "manly man truck does man things" commercial with a deep voiced narrator is coming. The brand name, ridiculous specs, and bro truck image will sell this vehicle. It's definitely stage 4. 

Two cars in different segments with different purposes that will cost different amounts will sell in different numbers? Do tell.

But still will look better than a Cybertruck. Bet me.

Counterpoint - we’re still very much in “Stage 3". GM just throws out a couple big numbers to get the blogs all hard, and we get articles like this. People still care very much for EV-centric stats like range and battery size.

Ehhhh the contracts with Ford alone will keep Rivian alive one way or another. They’ve already been confirmed to produce the first EV Lincoln platform. They’ve been working with Ford on the F150 electric....They’re pretty solid.

I would argue that the Type 3, though less modern, was still a better car than the Excel... certainly alot less disappointing :)
