David and Jason are the only two remaining writers that made this site worth visiting. Their departure = I will no longer come here. Ever. Goodbye Jalopnik, it was a good run.

Whatever they wanted, G/O should have given to them. I don’t see Jalopnik surviving with the leftovers. 

We run 3 Ford Transit 350s for my business, constantly loaded down with tools and materials. Used as a working fleet vehicle they get MAYBE 6 mpg average.

If you ever go diving in Lake Mead there are parts of that lake littered with sunken cars. Hell, we even found a school bus once.

“waaaahh I can’t understand things so I whine about them”

I have been pulled over by these chucklefucks on I-22. He was in the process of handing me a ticket until he noticed I have a dash camera for both forward and rear recording. Told me to have a nice day and “slow down” (which is hilarious, because I was already going 5 under the speed limit due to traffic conditions).

I’ll go with the low hanging fruit, subscription services for features already on the car.

Seems par for the course for every predatory “buy here pay here” lot to have ever existed, including pre-covid.

For now

Or they will go Toyota’s route and charge for things like remote start (using your key fob, no data needed).

Having been an owner of two current gen Mopars (one of which being my current 5.7L RAM)....yes....totally a fucking Mopar thing. They come from the factory screwed on with the strength of a silverback Gorilla.

Ding ding ding. Emissions equipment on newer diesels is a huge pain in the ass. 

Let me introduce you to the Ford Ecosport. 

That’s not the argument dumbass. 

This is like, the first time I’ve agreed with Mr. Brownell. This is 100% a defensible position. There are plenty of families out there where 1 car is solely a commuter car and the other is the family hauler/road tripper. Hell, the two daily driven vehicles in my household fit that description perfectly.

There are…

No reasonable person would have an issue with understand the phrase as she said it. She pause because she was thinking. This is stupid and ticky-tack.

Except that’s what happened. She clearly said “word” before the buzzer sounded. 

I don’t get it, she got it before the buzzer. Yea, I’d be annoyed too. 

If given a choice I prefer the tack on style. Why? Because I can easily remove it. 

That’s all fine and dandy until you’re holding $10k in unpaid auto loan debt for a car you don’t even have. Traditional GAP insurance policies aren’t the greatest but most regular car insurance policies have an option to ensure loan payoff for minimal increase in premium. Worth looking at while you drive a car that’s…

It matters if:

1. The car is totaled and you don’t have GAP insurance. (You really should get GAP insurance...).

2. You want to trade it in. (You make poor money decisions if you do this).
