If I can’t find a tool, it’s usually because it’s under my butt. I’m sitting on it.

You are absolutely 100% correct, but good fucking luck with that.

Is that sarcastic? (It’s OK if it is, this is the internet.) Either way I’m still here for now (like it or not) but only because I’ve figured out how to work around most of the bullshit. I know which writers’ articles I consider worth reading, and which I don’t. I know how to block most of the ads, including the ones…

Kristen is now the Deputy Editor at The Drive. I dunno if she’s still at Insider, totally possible I just haven’t checked.

Yeah that’s fucked. What did they expect, leaving comments open on a sponsored post?

Wow, you really went through and just straight-up deleted most of the comments, huh? I note that the ones you left aren’t exactly positive… best you could find was a small handful of neutral ones I guess? Well, fuck you Jalopnik. Fuck you very much. Next time just don’t leave comments active on your stupid fucking…

It’s not great for Ford’s credibility either. If the car is good, the reviews will be good. If you have to pay for good reviews, maybe the car isn’t so good.

Surprised that comments are enabled on this. Guessing it’s probably a Kinja fail more than an intentional choice. Either way, there’s absolutely no reason to give any credence whatsoever to anything written here, and I won’t be reading the article.

All these people saying “Why do you need a long bed? You obviously don’t carry long objects very often,” are missing the point. The entire point of a pickup is to have a large, open cargo area for carrying things that don’t fit in normal cars. The smaller the bed, the worse the truck is as a truck. It becomes a…

Look at this thing trying to carry a kayak. That’s a short kayak, the tailgate is down, there’s a bed extender, and the kayak still needs a flag on the end because it’s sticking out too far. It also looks as though three straps were required to secure it well enough for this photo shoot. On my car, if I want to carry…

Yup. Two big things have broken in the last few days. I’m getting the same big white space at the top of the page, and having the same problem finding replies to my comments. It’s barely worth dealing with anymore. This place just gets gradually worse and worse over time.

Sounds like it’s time for you to invest in a hoist so’s you can work on this beast. That engine is certainly going to have to come out sooner or later, no?

Those multi-story racks in the lede photo really ought to be paternosters where patrons can hold down a button to make the motorcycles go up and down and round and round, so that they can get up close and personal with each one.

Yup. Those amber DRLs are the piece de resistance on an already interesting-looking-in-a-good-way SUV. It’s gonna age really well. I feel like if I were looking at a top-line Telluride, I’d feel really conflicted about “settling” for white DRLs.

I also see a lot more Tellurides on the road than Palisades. I’ll be honest, I think it’s the looks. The Telluride is just a much more distinctive-looking car.

And if you believe that, I have a bridge to sell you.

Agreed. I want to love them, but other than the Miata what do they have right now that’s really compelling? I mean, they have a nice shade of red (too bad everybody buys monochromes now) and their cars are rather pretty in a clean, minimalist way with their soft lines and smiling faces (too bad everybody buys baroque…

Hahaha, good one Mazda. The roof shape evokes every other crossover on the market, except usually they manage to fit real doors in the back. I mean, I guess I can see the resemblance, but it resembles lots of other things too. Neither the R130 nor this stupid thing have particularly interesting roof shapes, although…

OK, so why would the Asian market want to pay more for an electric CUV with less range and less practicality than the competition?

Me. It’s like the people coding this site are trying to destroy it.
