A “quality chief” at GM is an oxymoron.

I heard a story once about the Olympic marathoner, Frank Shorter, and a co-runner out on a training run in Florida. Some redneck threw something at them and yelled obscenities, then the runners and the driver all came to a stoplight. Frank and his buddy jumped up on the trunk and stomped their way over the roof, then

Making cars is hard. Making really good cars is even harder. Buying a car from a startup is risky.

Eliminating conductors might be the best way to get MBTA to run on time...

11) Put the bike in neutral at stoplights and let go of the clutch lever. Holding the clutch in because you have trouble finding neutral is a total newbie move.

I’ve been going to Florida every year for 20 years to go fishing and I could write a book on the crazy, fucked up shit I’ve seen. The concentration of losers is staggering.

When ordering, there are no substitutions and it will be ready to pick up in 15 minutes.

You have issues.

This reminds me of the health-related headlines you see all the time like “Study shows children that drink 10 Cokes a day gain weight”, etc.

Yes, the bad effects are the beauty part of the Sharknados.

Off topic a bit but I’m a fly fisherman and I go nuts every time I see TV commercial with some actor pretending to cast a fly rod. Sometimes they don’t even bother to find a fly rod, they just substitute a spinning rod with a bobber on it!

So if they’re recalling every one ever made, that’s 100 cars or so.

I have to admit to leaving a “You park like an asshole” sticker on a car or two over the years.

I’m with you. They have no value proposition and their marketing is doomed- trying to convince young people that their product is relevant, when it is not.

I expect them to go away in a few years, along with Oldsmobile, Pontiac, Mercury and the like.

I wondered where my wife went.

I think it’s clear what’s going on here.

On the seller side, one of the categories has to be the guy that writes an ad that says “102,000 miles but this is my daily driver and it’s going up every day.” I suppose they think this creates urgency. Instead, because the ad is likely a month or two old, it says that the actual miles are an more than the 102,000.

Too much shit going on (angles) on the grill and rear end- kind of like any Acura.

The one I don’t get is OMG. When you speak this text acronyms it doesn’t reduce any syllables. What’s the point?

Did they engineer in unreliability to set it apart from a Miata and make it more Fiat-like?
