In another picture you can still read “Jucy” on the back of the tent.

Looks like this is a former Jucy rental (in one picture you can even see the signature green wrap). About five years ago our family of four actually rented one in Las Vegas and we went on a nice road trip through Nevada, Arizona and California. They are not bad for the purpose and after the trip we decided to buy a…

Yeah this screams “$200 non-refundable application fee that won’t be rolled into rent/deposit” to me

And high turnover is often a sign that the owner/management company sucks.

I’ve seen apartment complexes that do this. It’s often a sign that there’s high resident turnover. They’re constantly having to pull in new renters, so they want the cars to look nice so people aren’t turned off when they tour the apartment.

Because the only reason to drive a beater is financial duress, and financial duress is prima facie evidence of fraud.

JALOPNIK Drive EV or Die

Why would you want to fire either of these guys? 

It’s situational. Going to get groceries? Pull in forward. Parking in a lot with less traffic? Back in. With the proliferation of back up cameras, especially the ones that curve the limit lines when you turn the wheel, it should only take one try. If you can’t back into a spot in one try, go over to an empty parking…

Imagine this for a moment: It’s summertime, and you’re pulling up to a stoplight. As you come to a stop, there’s an absolute certified dime next to you. She’s driving something boring... maybe a mini-lux crossover like an Audi Q3.

Interesting article. Sort of a relevant reminder that, beyond the twelve articles we seem to get each week about Lordstown and other Jalopnik-non-favored-companies, real people tend to do better when the companies in their hometowns do better. And generally, the success of homegrown companies is good for the people…

The i3 is a great option and has a combination of several things that make it superior to other options, especially if you want to use it for more than just around town (and some downsides, too):

Does anyone else get the idea that Acura, Infinity and BMW farmed out the same taillight designer?

Literally the kindest thing that can be said about Rod Ponton, the Prosecutor, is that he is technologically inept. Otherwise we’d have to focus of being a vindictive, domestically abusive thug that uses the cops to settle his personal score.  https://reason.com/2021/02/10/zoom-cat-lawyer-rod-ponton-used-federal-agents…

Defense Attorney: I move that we dismiss this case due to lack of evidence.
Judge: We have multiple videos of your client crashing into cars and acting intoxicated. What does the prosecution have to say?
Prosecuting Attorney: I’m here. I’m not a cat.

“We pay literally hundreds of millions of dollars in taxes. We don’t even want government subsidies. We just want to be left alone and the government can’t help itself but to, like: ‘Here’s an oil company driving their oil tanker into some rocks, making a living, you know, living their dream, let’s try to ruin that as…

Good thing Jalopnik is giving this tool’s YT channel more visibility to pay off the fines and keep doing stupid shit for monetary gain 

Tomorrow’s NP/ND should be a Ford Transit van, Only lightly driven on Sundays, in honor of Sabine Schmitz. RIP Sabine. 

1.) EVs are profitable and have been for a while

1st gear: If i were buying a Silverado 1500, I would certainly opt for the 5.3 w/o the displacement on demand feature. Cylinder deactivation systems always lead to problems long term. I actually just bought a Honda Odyssey last week and ordered a VCMuzzler II while sitting at a stop light on the way home.
