We just called it a haircut. :)

Other countries put tariffs on imports. I wouldnt mind paying more for goods if it meant more jobs here.

I think Trump adding Tesla and Uber CEOs to his policy forum detracts from your point about big business conteolling the market. He seems to be cozying up to forward-thinking, innovative people.

He’s a billionaire a few times over and now going to be the President of our country for the next four years. Egomaniacal, perhaps, but he’s not stupid.

Is the next four years going to be nothing but constant Trump -bashing on Jalopnik?

You mean a Smart?

Up front savings. Lose everything in the long run due to uncertified maintenance. Read what Doug wrote about documented service and the impact on value of a ferrari.

fuck this. another corporate bail out. this is the same as me going on a coke binge, losing my job and crying about how if I don’t get my job back my kids will be needy. fuck them. The GM and bank bailouts were a horrible precedent.

There’s a difference between being competitive and being That Guy.

“This is why a manual transmission drive is never a smooth experience.”...if you’re a pussy who can’t drive, yes...

You’re right. Monster trucks were just a sideshow to the truck pulls.

Manual transmissions suck when your daily commute involves traffic.

Of course. I’m sure this video is propagated by “Big Automatics.” Slimy buggers, getting their hands into everything.

“This is why a manual transmission drive is never a smooth experience.”

This can’t be right. Everybody knows automatic transmissions work by witchcraft.

Am I the only guy that misses when monster trucks were actually trucks? I get that you can’t do what they do today with a steel body but I dunno those trucks seem so much cooler that what we have today

Abandoned green(ish) van? Nothing bad ever happens with those things...

Just look how well that plan is working out for Greece, Italy, Spain, Portugal. It’s working great for Germany, too, who’s been footing the bill for them.

To all the vaporware wanabee iPhones on wheels without drivers: go die in a fire!

It’s no worse than a schoolbus
