this is all I have to say to him...

@fierrogt: Lest we forget what a 1970 boss looks like (with stripes, black wheels, etc...)

@dorkstar: What I want to know is, what's that huge dent doing on the rear-exhaust resonator?

I hope that this cop will be losing his job as soon as the case goes up a level in the courts. If I saw some dude in a sweater get out of a gray malibu with a gun, I'd GTFO as quickly as possible. I see several problems with the "Arrest"

@Jim-Bob wants a B13 SE-R, but will settle for working air conditioning in his 351,000 mile Nissan Frontier.: And your point is well taken — the J-body, with minimal updates, was cheaply made for 25 years. But I still maintain that for a cheap, small car, it wasn't terrible in the early 80s. It's just GM's nasty…

@LikeChai: I've found that being polite, but to-the-point works best.

As someone who has been in call centers for years, I have to say that the tips on the phone complaints are spot on.

@dallasmay:

@dallasmay: The problem with your reasoning is that it promulgates the sex-shame dichotomy in this country. You're thinking only in black-and-white and that can only lead to trouble with logic.

@War2d2: Secure In His Own Manhood: Well you'd probably have to use an explorer — the Bronco was significantly smaller from 66-77 than the newer vehicles. Specs were actually closer to the Bronco II of the 80s

hmm...

@reinigrauer: in most states, touching something 17 years old and with curves like that will get you thrown in jail.

@Whitetrashsteve:

I have 2 American Cousins that still hold up in the looks department, despite being 20-year-old designs. In my opinion, they were better looking than their Japanese counterparts, even if the difference is only a matter of some body panels...

Thanks again, Jalopnik, for reminding me that money does not equal high class, good taste, or anything remotely resembling either.
