Really — someone would want to buy a Fiat convertible after watching Charlie Sheen drive one? How brain-dead have we become?

I’m an old geezer — and a dedicated pizza eater for decades — and the conclusion derived from this study makes no sense to me. If anything, I would guess that a guy would eat LESS pizza when he’s out with a woman, showing her he’s not a fat-gutted pig.

Really — we haven’t mastered seat-belt technology after all these years? Really?

At least this Fiat isn’t as ugly as the 500. Given the company’s infamous and continuing reputation for building unreliable products, however, you’d have to be masochist to want to buy this car instead of a Miata...

First Ford ripped off Aston Martin, and now Lincoln rips off Bentley. It seems to me that both Ford and Lincoln could use a design director more dedicated to originality.

Wow — close to a million bucks sure buys you a ton of ugliness! I don’t think either the xenomorph or the Predator would ever be seen behind the wheel of this pig, regardless of how fast it is...

Has anyone nominated a Hummer, the mightiest of all Douchemobiles?

Way off base. CR was dreadful, and the dour Craig the worst Bond ever.

Jeepers, but that’s an ugly car! It’s not bad from the side, but only its mother could love its front and back...

You passed a Tesla S? That’s rather newsworthy in itself, no?

I’ll have to nominate the Lincolns, followed by the Fiats and Alfas.

And speaking of gloriously stupid op-eds, what does David Brooks have to say about tipping?

I nominate any of the new Fiats, from the dumpy lump that some people can afford to the sporty convertible that most people can’t...

Agreed — I thought the results would be along the order of 25% or more... This is not to condone what VW did, but still these shortcomings should not be that apparent to most owners of the affected cars...

Fourth best Bond film? It is generally still considered THE best Bond film to this day. And one could have watched and enjoyed the film in less time than it took to drudge through this lengthy article...

This reminds me of Shell’s Platformate “mileage enhancer” back in the sixties. Apparently, all brands of gas had the same ingredient, but only Shell gave it a name, so people believed Shell had something extra. I didn’t realize that people thought the technology behind EcoBoost was a Ford exclusive, however.

Anyone salivating over the JBL Pulse BT speaker with LEDs should beware — the speaker doesn’t sound very good — no bass. You’re better off ponying up another $80 and getting a Bose Mini.

I don’t believe the engine would stall unless it ran out of gas. Thus it is conceivable that the car and its A/C ran for an hour, but it’s hard to imagine car owners in NJ leaving their car running and unattended for that amount of time with the keys in the ignition.

If this Jared business doesn’t bring Subway down, their over-expansion might. Apparently they sold too many locations to franchisees, profits are minimal at many locations, and some franchisees who have tried to sell their locations are not recouping their original investments.

This is an idiotic article. I’ve worn these BT phones, and they sound great and they’re convenient. They cut the cord to the playback device, which is genuinely useful. If you want to trash stupid-looking headphones, go after the clods wearing those huge Dr. Dre cans.
