People bitch about the plastic fender extension. Subaru “don’t worry it looks fine”. Then shows black car to completely hide the terrible plastic junk attached to the car.

Pittsburgh: “What are yinz jags bitchin’ about?”

Thanks for this. Cripes, the internet is full of assholes.

How can anyone hate on the holy grail of Jalopnik wrenchers?

It was a cold, dark winter night. It was the first time I’d driven by myself, and I just turned 16. Snow just began falling and it was slick out while I drove home from school in my ‘05 Jetta after sports ball practice.

That was dam close. 

Good pics and vids, Rory. Looks like fun, nice Lexus.

Could you please, please, please turn off the auto-play for embedded videos? If I don’t pause it quickly enough at the end of the video, it automatically brings me away from the article and to the page for whatever the next video that is queued up, which is very frustrating.

This post paints a really bad picture without full understanding of how IT infrastructure works. When the good folks down in IT see an activity spike and files start becoming encrypted, they shut everything off in order to isolate the threat. It’s kind of like closing fire doors. Unfortunately this sometimes means…

If he wins a record 8th championship, I think there’s a good chance Lewis retires on top. Maybe he comes back in a few years to scratch that racing itch, like Schumi did.

Yes!

Have one more car than you actually need if you are going to DIY everything.

The Sport is the base trim, so I have no idea what Westbrook is talking about. 

Stay home. Stop procrastinating & fix your collection of shitheaps.

Yeah, because your property value is going to tank because some doctor is sleeping in an RV for a couple months during a global health pandemic.

EMINENT BROMAIN!

People pay a lot more to cosplay as race car drivers.

My first thought was a TJ.  If the guy is into surfing he’ll be into taking the top off.  Dings are badges of honor and it can basically turn in its own footprint.  Reliable as all hell if maintenance is kept up

I was once in a similar situation to this person. I bought a Jeep Wrangler TJ. That was the current model at the time. I don’t know if a more current model would look as cool with some dings or not. Also, at the time, having high-mounted all-steel bumpers was advantageous in parking-by-braille situations.

Are we watching Jalopnik fade into the mist of internet irrelevancy? I didnt think Patrick George was that monumental but man I havent seen anything new stick to the walls and a lot of shit has been flung at em.

...never use a debit card.  Good advice in all situations.
