The union has stated that they’re getting involved in Barry’s termination. He posted that the stick to sports memo was against the union CBA on Monday before going ham on non-sports posts. Also, after re-reading this I realized that I spent way too much time yesterday reading up on drama related to a company I don’t…

buddy, I’ve been asking that for over a year

It’s just a bit hypocritical because the car probably is better than it would be without BMW‘s participation.

There’s nothing uncool about an LC500

I’d imagine there won’t be many people not using adblock at this point. 

This is an obligatory post, since I’m an infrequent Jalopnik contributor, and I’m not a full time writer: G/O Media is killing Jalopnik.

Cars are an emotional purchase for the majority of people. Brand, prestige, etc. all drive the buying decision more then common sense.

This is cool and all but I NEED that Katana-style steering wheel

I feel like it’s strange that so many people are defending the cashier here. Sure the guy didn’t miss his flight and wasn’t inconvenienced that much, but even if the cashier was dealing with something important, they could have not texted for the 30 seconds it takes to complete the transaction and given the customer…

‘B’ is for Buy N Large, your very best friend <3

You could have wired up the battery charger to the shore power outlet. It would be a much cleaner setup instead of breaking out the battery charger all the time.

That’s a cool project but a rattle can paint job? Bro. It’s 30$ for an HPLV sprayer with a regulator at Harbor Freight. Spend a few bucks and do the paint right. I have a 20 foot Geo Pro trailer and it has a solar panel and 2 batteries and it’s great. It’s nice to have the option for shore power though, I probably…

That’s some serious shade.
