Neutral:

That is a sweet VW.

I do not understand why the lien changes the value for some people. Sure, you have to remove it, but the value of the car is the same. If we were talking about a one-year-old vehicle with a lien, no one would blink. So why is it an issue here? Is your house worth less because of a mortgage? Of course not. I’d be more…

Yeah. Because the front-wheel-drive Daimler platform is super awesome.

I guess I still do not understand why they could not add a radiator core or two and bump up cooling fan volume. I’m guessing cost constraints played as much or more of a role than engineering restraints. But then, really, who I the hell buys one of these as a tow-vehicle? It is not like the market does not offer at…

Lyft was full of shit from the get-go. In statements made to regulatory agencies, Lyft described itself as “technology company” connecting riders with drivers who were already going to the same place, thus the “sharing” bullshit.

Dear GM. The 2.8 VM is missing 100 HP. Please drop this in the Colorado.

I checked this out last weekend at my dealer. You know how the 928 and the Panamera both look better in person than they do in photographs? You may still dislike one or both models, but for some reason, those two models almost always look better in person.

Your rule applies to Australian Shepherds as well.

Smart dogs would find your position to be patently stupid. 

Jalopnik brings the insight; 60 hp. found insufficient for satisfactory motoring through the alps.

So, no one is going to comment on GM’s hub caps covering the non-hubs on the front axles of the heavy pickups?

Powering both of those bits is a 351CM V8.

Fair point. My dad sent me a photo of his kitchen window thermometer displaying -34 yesterday. He then went out, started his beater truck, and went to work like any other day. I don’t know, but my hunch is that even a detached garage would not be as cold and that truck (w/o a block heater) would have been way happier…

False. Diesels from the IH MD, through the IH/Navistar 6.9 / 7.3 (for just two examples from a single manufacturer) are IDI.

1. 1 hour of actual cold soak is hardly sufficient. That’s just silly.

And an exhaust brake at the other end of the lineup.

GM offers an integral unit on the Colorado. 

Meh- Like most of the internet, I think our entire debate misses the point because we have misapplied the measure of “efficiency” in this context.

I don’t want to be a little bitch here, but I do not believe tests confirm your statement “That’s why turbo engines are only more efficient when not engaging the turbo.”
