I-95 is the dividing line for sheetz vs. Wawa in the mid atlantic. there are a few west of it in MD, but by and large, most Wawa’s are along the corridor. when you get west of fredrick, MD or york, pa, there are no wawa’s to be found

i live in maryland. on this side of 95, all we have is wawa. we love it. it’s a staple of “i don’t want to cook tonight what can we get”

it’s wholly possible that they had 1-2 million reservations, and people started cancelling them as soon as they saw what a donkey of a car it is. then musk turning into a raging nazi took care of whatever other reservations were left and not delivered on.

a quick search shows you can find a forester that’s 11 years younger with fewer miles for about a grand more.  and get it with a stick.  this is priced like we’re still in a chip shortage. ND all day long.

we had a 626. I had a protégé née 323.  the 929 was opulence defined and something I was always jealous of

remember when russia first invaded ukraine and they realized that a failure to do basic maintenance resulted in the tires of all their vehicles to be completely rotted out and thus unable to traverse anything other than a paved road and the highways into Kyiv became a killing field?

my 2003 BMW M3 convertible had this feature and from years of driving it it wasn’t unreliable and never broke.  you’re defending the indefensible.

just like they delivered on their promised $25K and $30K price points, right?  suckers are born every minute and they all drive cyberstucks

my 150K honda odyssey was a great example of how they lost that reliability.  a 2012, the engine was going to have to be rebuilt because the eco mode caused excessive damage to the cylinders and they started misfiring.  which is a shame because the rest of the car was still reliable.

owner ruined it by putting altezza lights on it tho

you literally can’t take it into a car wash because they have unprotected wiring that runs through places where water can accumulate 

the LED lights for passengers are so well built in my Wagoneer that I can’t even tell when the kids turn them on anymore. they’ll never know what it was like to bomb down the M6 at night hoping to read a copy of Beano by the streetlights as they whizzed by 

my 2012 honda odyssey minivan that I thought would go 500K+ miles had this fault built into it that honda knew about and never recalled. the eco mode causes those V6's to need a rebuild around 150k miles. my brother had to do it on his. so when my car threw a CEL and I found a misfire on cylinder 3, and had a garage…

lmao jalopnik has gone from a writer being thrown in jail in rural virginia for not slowing down fast enough to copaganda

compared to some of the tiny japanese apts I’ve seen on youtube, this place is a gd palace

i wish i knew what happened to the gold one that was forever sitting, unloved, in a back bay of Eurosport in Virginia Beach, VA back in the early 2000's.

you mean a convertible with a stick?

apparently there were just 100 of these toyota classics built?! they cost $75K brand new (about $150K in today’s dollars!), and were even available with a column mounted manual transmission (sadly this is automatic).

worst air travel experience I had happened on the ground. Flying back to Atlanta from Delhi, India in January 2005 on Lufthansa. Had a layover in Frankfurt. For those who have never made such a flight, it’s about 9 hours for the first leg and 10 hours for the next, with what I recall to be a 6 hour layover. So over a…

it took some committing to it to become comfortable with it.  I usually keep the adjustable gap distance at the minimum setting when we get in more traffic, and frequently will override with my own foot to ensure the gap doesn’t accordion too much.  but nowadays I even throw it on for a mile stretch in the morning on…
