Posted some more in a reply to myself!

In case anyone cares for pictures:

Thanks! Well, I had big plans to actually learn to weld and found the rocker panels and floorboards on a German website but life got in the way and the budget would need to be close to $4k to fix everything wrong with it and that’s if I did the work myself. I was still in college at the time and didn’t have my own…

A friend of mine bought a VW Diesel Golf. Turns out the sellers lied about the emissions or something big time. Super sketchy scenario. Whatevs. Sellers took it back.

Lovely how Tesla can’t seem to take criticism even in the slightest. Shows about how fragile the company & its cars really are once you take the mystique away from its products.

This makes me irrationally angry.

Is this where I can share hundreds of painful stories of tire-kicking, blood-sucking, bottom-feeder, mooching customers that wasted more time of my life than I want to admit to? Those dealership horror stories go both ways.

COTD, imo

The good thing with an Alfa is that you won’t have to endure it for 290K miles.

So Tesla’s response is to talk about how all cars can start on fire and that gasoline cars start more on-fire than electric cars...

I think it’s more how pleased you seem with yourself about getting around some neighbors who have complained numerous times about your actions to no avail. And if not that, how you wrecked someone else’s property without first considering them.

Highly unlikely, the Saudis crewed themselves when they tried to destroy frackin, now they are stuck with low prices or low prices plus loss market share. Gas prices will unlikely go up very high anytime soon.

Good lord that shit is ugly.

In winter, when my hoses will freeze, my buckets will freeze, my power washer will freeze, and my butt will freeze, I will use a car wash to keep my car clean. Stating that I don’t care about my car because I use a car wash is a hideously stupid conclusion to draw.

You also have to consider that the inspector’s phrasing was specifically chosen so as not to induce a widespread panic amongst Fiesta owners. I think he’s really trying to emphasize the fact that this was not a manufacturing error but a modding error.

+3 for the obvious but wonderful “Cantaloupe-Gate”

Exactly what the hell is the insurance rate on Mustangs for male drivers of a certain age? The companies must have an entire claims department just processing Cars and Coffee accidents.

I’m finding that a lot of people on jalopnik don’t know the difference between a lane change and a zipper merge.

Good. Seriously fuck this guy and everybody like him. They actually slow traffic down because everybody needs to brake to let them in.

Why would I want actual information about an upcoming vehicle I might be interested in when I can have all of this snark!
