“We’ve been trying to reach you about your car’s extended warranty.”

Are you and your company deeply tied to the leader of a regime who is invading a foreign country? Is your company the result of massive graft and you were able to purchase a state owned company for pennies on the dollar? Is your wealth tied to corruption and being best buds with a maniac with delusions of recreating…

Get a new Mirage for $16k. Put snow tires on it.

Holy crap a 16 year has a 20K for a car. When I was 16, I had a decent job and my budget was 2K, what’s the inflation adjustment for that?

Wait, I just looked it up, it’s about 5K

Get the Subaru, I would just get an 11-14 WRX hatch as they offer nearly the same speed and a better ride

Steer into the slide.

Super disappointed that wasn’t a red ‘95 Dodge Ram.

I am glad this person figured out a way to fund the purchase of a replacement vehicle but hopefully he is also pursuing legal and insurance claims against the driver and whoever else was involved with this crash.

This isn’t specific to one state, and is a variant of left lane hogging. On an interstate highway with only 2 lanes in each direction, one semi driving 66 mph in the left lane to pass another going 65 mph.

i’m sure horse carriage dealers bitched incessantly 100 years ago too.

2nd:

No mention of Pat Goss passing away here? Come on. Who didn’t watch Motorweek?

tug boats were using houses to break up small oil slicks that remained.

Came here to make a similar comment; I get these guys are freelancers, but Jesus, who the Hell is the EIC around here?

Can we please get articles about cars again? I really miss stories about tail lights and actual driving vehicles. If that is gone from Jalopnik now please someone tell me where I need to go to read about cars.

Looks like a corvette.

Seems like what you’re saying is; The Maverick solves a problem that shouldn’t exist.

...even though they live in a 1 bedroom apartment

I don’t understand this take. Someone makes a small fuel efficient pickup and that’s a problem? We should only buy Brodoziers and Civics?  I see lot’s of people who have a commuter car and a beater pickup for weekend projects or sports stuff. Why is combining the two an issue? I still don’t understand why GM never…
