I mean, the detail that if the aftermarket part or non-manufacturer backed service causes the problem it negates the warranty if the issue is related to that repair is right in the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. In other words if you put on an aftermarket oil filter found to be defective and you have an oil related…

Feels like a new low tbh.  We went from Torch explaining differences between turn signal shapes in old VWs to an explanation for a commonly-known function of turn signals in modern vehicles.

Yeah, holy crap. Is this the level of automotive expertise and insight we should come to expect here? To me, this issue is so fucking...basic? What next, a story on wipers that move at different speeds? YOU’RE USING YOUR WIPERS WRONG PEOPLE!

Seriously? You didn’t know that many cars have this lane change tap function? Shame! As for the self-cancelling signals on a motorcycle, my 1986 Honda VFR had that yet none of my newer bikes (2001,2007, 2012 Hondas, Ducatis and BMWs) did.

Street outlaws is not real. It is filmed on closed roads, with safety crews, essentially a drag strip.

Go Fund Me has essentially devolved into privatize the profits, socialize the losses for the common folk.

That’s my question as well. This guy was working in a dangerous occupation with a legitimate risk of death or disability, and was being paid to do so by a very large media conglomerate. There should be absolutely no need for any type of additional funding beyond the preventative measures he should have taken (life…

Do you think this might encourage Discovery to stop exploiting these low-cost, low effort, “reality” TV shows for content? Also, why does this guy’s family need a go-fund-me? Does Discovery not have any responsibility here? Why does the public need to pitch in for something like this?

This entire comment is very stupid and reflects your basic lack of empathy and any understanding at all about economic realities in this country. But this gem made me laugh the most: “I won’t say I don’t feel sorry for UPS drivers...” and then you spend an entire paragraph explaining exactly how not sorry you feel for…

When people say Ohio, they really mean I-90/I-80/the turnpike west of Cleveland. It’s glacial till with nothing but corn, soybeans, and wheat. I grew up there, but now live in Columbus. You’re absolutely correct about anywhere in Ohio that didn’t get graded by glaciers, especially southeast around the Hocking Hills.

I’ve never driven through Nebraska, but I have driven to Nebraska. I-80 across Iowa is mind numbing enough. The occasional stench of pig farms is the only thing keeping you awake.

Nebraska. Just Nebraska.

I work with extremely rich boomer car guys every single day, and I firmly believe that a good 50-60% of them would fail to see the issue with this. I know the shop was emailing this guy constantly to try and get payment from him, they probably called him multiple times, but he didn’t recognize the number so he just…

I’m just going to leave this here:

If a bunch of virtue signaling politicians were destroying your livelihood you might be upset too. This will kneecap some of the most productive agriculture in the world in the middle of a?global food crisis to achieve a claimed reduction in emissions that will be immediately canceled by a single power plant in China.…

You all want to have people starving to death? This insane war on farming is absolutely mind blowing. You need to figure out a better alternative before you just shut down farming.

Incorrect. I personally have been killed many times after flashing my lights at other motorists.

At the schoolyard, the scuttlebutt was that Jalopnik wanted to make one page, but the Bean Counters (or Management) stepped in and forced them to make it a 22 page slideshow, instead.

Red cars have higher insurance premiums.

The Cybertruck, just in general. Will it be made? Was it ever GOING to be made?? How many windshield wipers will it have??! We may never know.
