It’s like a more up to date take on the Xterra

Fuel economy deregulation hasn’t happened (yet), debt bubbles are (in my opinion) more the fault of the consumer and dealer, and emissions cheating isn’t widespread across the industry.

What do you mean by real life issue? People drive around with under inflated and over inflated tires as well as dry-rotted tires. Check out https://www.reddit.com/r/Justrolledintotheshop/ 

Well at least with the current administration, they would likely not have to give up their stock

Or use Mitsubishi to sell rebadged cars from Renault or Dacia? This would be a cheap way to help with CAFE requirements (don’t have to redesign the entire car) while they sell a beefy SUV to reestablish the brand.

1st gear: Most car company’s these days aren’t struggling to meet crash safety requirements. There are some notable recalls and impacts to consumer safety (Chrysler’s electronic shifters, GM’s ignition switch, Takahata airbags, etc.), but I don’t think that hiring an auto executive would result in deregulation. Anyone…

Holy hell! A Craigslist seller who bothered to remove the tags before taking pictures! No dirty rags or out of focus fingers anywhere!

Truth be told, those wheels might be worth the asking price.

Sure, I think it would help for quick glances, but I like the first glances to exist almost separately. Like you aren’t writing the article to fit the final graphic. I feel they have different purposes and different writing styles and I wouldn’t want to have them just become early access reviews.

What happened to that chart that was supposed to go with all reviews? The one that had the grade for daily use and what it’s like to drive?

Yeah I am woefully uninformed to maintain an argument on either side of this issue. I’m sure there is a legal precedent involved. I do recall seeing, a couple of months back, a story in which the lawsuit was dismissed because the car had had an outstanding recall notice for several years.

Tesla is a car company and a tech company. People love to sue car and tech companies for many reasons. Even in situations where Tesla is at fault, a lawyer/journalist will try to spin the situation to fit a particular bias.

Counterpoint: At what point is it the owner’s duty to keep their car safe and up to date with all active recalls? How old must a car be before its condition is up to the owner? The newest affected vehicle is 7 years old now. If someone owns a 2010 Chevy Cobalt and failed to get the ignition switch fixed, is it GM’s…

And in 35 years, MOPAR swap meets will sell serialized pieces of wood from the crate for 2.4 million FutureBucks (spesos?) because official MOPAR.

If only this article existed in video form. Ideally just audio with a stationary image so that I don’t forget what I’m listening to. Oh well.

Yeah that was a general sentiment of the time. Between the switch from gross horsepower to net horsepower in 1972 and the introduction of catalytic converters in 1973, a lot of people were upset by the performance of muscle cars in those days.

And check out that rear! Va va va voom!

Lol wouldn’t that make it easier to hear the all the other rattles and squeaks?

The proportions have to be just right. Any change/sag in the suspension or change in tire size destroys the look of the car. Wider tires can be ok, but low profile tires are not good.

The second generation Javelin’s front fenders should be treated as strong pornography. NSFW pic for reference:
