The highest end cars are already being preserved by their owners. The kind of crappy car that many of us have had to drive at one time or another deserves preservation if only to serve as a reminder of the negative effects of low wages and urban sprawl.

It’s hilarious when people go to all the trouble of burying a time capsule in the ground, only to have someone come along and open it just 50 years later. It’s not like we’re all wandering around thinking “I wonder what life was like for the unknown people in the distant unrecorded past of the 1970s.”

I guess this is one of those cases where (unsurprisingly) a non-US built car is a lot cheaper to fix if you live near where it was built, rather than in the US.

I’m not okay with this.

I don’t hate touchscreens in cars... that is until they start removing tactile buttons/lever switches to be replaced by touchscreen functions.

At what point does it start to feel like you’re just paying the direct sales equivalent to a dealer markup? Prices change as the market changes, but $8k/22% in just a few short months...

Cops will always insist they need AR15's to counter pocketknives and .38 revolvers, and that these crashes prove they should have nothing less than the new monster Hummers.

I did that one last year! https://jalopnik.com/hot-damn-here-are-2020s-best-car-stumes-for-halloween-1845534117

I’ve lived in SoCal and have been through Malibu (there’s not much to do there besides the businesses in the parking lot in question, and a fabulous seafood restaurant on the beach that charges $40 to park) on several occasions. I can describe Malibu in one word: insufferable. Its a small community that exceeds at repr…

Nah, I’d rather buy this:

Right now, during a huge supply crunch, every car will be sold, and salespeople have little to do to make that happen.

Unions are like condoms; if someone is trying to say you don’t need one, you definitely need one.

It takes truly insane management brain to think you can just take person with a desk job and put them on an actual production floor and not have it be a monumental disaster.

The good old ground nail. So vile there was a movie made to promote it sixty years ago, and thirty years ago Mystery Science Theater roasted that.

Texas’ failures are well documented. So while I have been there, you don’t need to go there to see how bad it is. You don’t need to get radiation poisoning to know that camping at Chernobyl is a bad idea.

When Haiti has a better electrical grid than your state, the arguments that you’re not a “failed state” KINDA go out the window...
