A recession is tough on any automaker that isn't run lean and efficiently even in good times and doesn't have a healthy cash reserve. The lack of building and energy growth will admittedly hurt pick up sales more than anything. 

I don't follow comic con at all, so the the moment we saw original Lana was pretty shocking to me. I've been enjoying most of this seasons and just accepted Archer as stand alone seasons with similar characters, so the end of this episode really came as a shock to me. 

The seller will probably get close to that price. There are plenty of people out there who want a Previa and finding a s/c all-Trac in good shape is not a particularly common occurrence. 

Went to the o's game today. They did a great job providing ice and cooling towels for fans. Very limited Oriole bird mascot, but otherwise it was pretty normal. Worth it to see the rare o's series win. 

I don't know why, but when Cheryl said "let the culling begin!" and Pam punched her off screen, I could not help but laugh. That was great. I thought this episode was fine. Yes, I thought they'd do more with the clone crew, but it had some good bits. I think it could have been a solid 2 part episode if they wanted to…

The battle at the front was great for a few laps, then after the safety car it didn't really matter. Max continues to put on a great show behind the Mercedes duo! 

I just woke up and read something about this on Twitter and thought it was a joke. Holy shit.

This is great info. While some cars might be “More American,” the cars built in American with the most American parts, by companies who have the largest workforce in America will contribute the most to the American economy. So while FCA technically isn’t an American company, they have so many employees in the US that…

Bee-utiful

It's like they let a marketing person make the pick. They just wanted the most marketable player available and Rui happens to be one of the best players ever out of Japan. 

Problems can be something as silly as a person not knowing how to set the clock. So many manufacturers are focusing on delivery specialists trained to teach customers how to use vehicles because so often, the car has no problems, but customers aren't properly trained on how to use the tech in the vehicle. Granted,…

Well I never expected to see Bath, PA mentioned on Jalopnik. I'm curious if they actually ordered this truck or it got dumped on them by a rep who needed to get rid of it and offered them some Wranglers to take it. 

It reminds me a lot of the GLK. A bit boxier and more truckish, but I think it works. I really liked the refreshed GLK. A small 3 row suv is underrated. 

To me a luxury car focuses on the details. There's certain things Mercedes does better than a mainstream brand, like rain channels along the windshield so rain runs up and over the car instead of along your driver side window, or all LED lighting providing a bright interior, or doors that have that solid thud when you…

Talk to any long time Chrysler employee about Fiat and they are almost guaranteed to bring up how terrible Fuegos and "Renalts" are. I wonder how they're taking this news. 

The announcers made sure on just about every possession until midway through the 2nd when he finally scored to point out Lillard had no points.

The top end of the engine was accessible from a panel under the passenger seat, which made the valve cover, plugs, and distributor easily accessed. It was a joy to work on really. Everything up front is easy was well. There’s even a wing nut used on the alternator.

I don’t love this, but it’s refreshing to see a designer try to design a car that doesn’t try to look overly aggressive.
