(*Loudly clears throat*) Oh? There’s a semiconductor shortage? I was told by the 45th President of the United States, the “dealmaker” himself Donald Trump that “Trade wars are good, and easy to win.” Are you saying that Honest Donald lied to us? Perhaps China is hoarding semiconductors for themselves because of the…

It’s a reverse Wimpy: I will gladly pay you today for an FSD on Tuesday. 

I think the heartburn around the kidney grilles really comes from the grille size. The new grille is crazy big for what it currently provides in terms of cooling capacity. But that’s what I love about BMW and why I purchased one (and, later, stocks in the company). They take design moonshots in so many places. The…

I like that they admit the Model 3's interior is shit to use specifically because you weren’t meant to actually drive the car. Considering how far away Level 5 autonomy is, that goes beyond “putting the cart before the horse.” The horse hasn’t even been born yet.

What percentage of the unsuccessful campaigns have you received?

They are getting a bunch of baloney, though.

Ultimately, it’s another depressing development in an already depressing saga, and it’s hard to find a positive takeaway.

30+ years ago I got to intern for the Department of natural resources department of solid waste for a summer. One of my jobs and my favorite part of my job was telling new fancy big house owners that build a new big house next to a farm that was crying that the farm was spreading human waste to get over them selves.…

Low-rider #1 drives over a speed-bump. The gas filler under the license plate spills out a pint of high-test on the pavement, as they do. As low-rider #2 drives by, the driver’s “pot”* cigarette burns down and burns his fingers; crying out “chingado reefer, man! Shit!” he flicks his “roach”** out the window. Just at…

While I generally find the “all gentrification is evil” narrative pretty limited, to me this is just called: Do Your Research. Figure out what happens in a neighborhood, decide whether or not you’d be happy to live there, and then sign your lease accordingly. Don’t show up and mess with the lives of the people who…

Battery company that poorly assembles cars fails to understand actual allure of driving

So it drew a dick, then got stuck in the mouth of the Suez and there aren’t enough seamen with enough thrust to push it out. And the longer it’s in there, the more screwed we are...

I really really like these STOCK. They had great looking factory alloys and were simple and understated in the looks department. With that said, let’s go down the list:

Those seats look like ass.

ND. This specimen isn’t that original or desirable. High miles, shitty respray, automatic, mixture of sun bleached console and cheesy seat reskin and of course the colorful engine bay. The seller is a clown.

My friend had one of those, he sold it just last year. He let me take it on 600 mile round trip that I had to take. I found it a bit strange and confusing. The thing about it is that it really doesn’t feel like a motorbike the way I’d always known. It’s like a car that can tip over. Comfort is completely another level…

That is a mighty fine engine. Mighty, mighty fine.

I voted NP b/c I guess it’s a fair price. But personally, I couldn’t be more uninterested in ever owning something like this.

Or...hear me out! 195hp, FWD, raised up a little add some extra doors and because Nissan is fancy like that throw in an awesome CVT!!! 

Jeep Compass, hands down.
