Hey, get Nevada out of the red on that fucker. We did our damn job on this side of the Sierras.

I don’t know if anyone else saw this, but when I first saw the image and before I read the headline all I could think was “Whoa, someone did a stretch job on a 2008 vintage Prius?” The lighting, the design of the body panels, the curves... all of that just looked like someone had taken a Prius and flattened it in

I have just about reached the point where I simply don’t want to ever engage in any kind of conversation or interaction with anyone I know votes for this idiot. Ever. For the rest of my damn days.

Man, you don’t mess with queen bitch Barbara Bush, though. That woman is more stone cold than Steve Austin. If he did that and she found out, he’d be bleeding out on the rug in Kennebunkport before anyone knew he’d vanished from the tower.

This is a terrible, awful, lame set of questions that should have absolutely no chance whatsoever of being right for anyone.

Daaaamn, those are some nasty terms. It’s unfortunate, but these days terms over 60+ months seem to be increasingly common. 85 though? That’s... a bit more than I would have imagined, and we’ve got a 74/$700 on our 2016 Santa Fe Sport. We had a pretty big negative equity hit too, closer to six grand. But the interest

I would break my no pre-orders rule for a GTA VIce as the next game. I would even go for a collectors edition and season pass, because I want that so damn much.

I was on the market earlier this year looking for a crossover type vehicle in the same price and size category as the Renegade or even the Wrangler Unlimited and ... I just couldn’t even think about it. And I should have been a slam dunk for FCA on that one.

Too many curves, too much custom bodywork. What this proposal really has at its heart is a design that’s meant to be personalized and customized, which a Jeep of this style would absolutely be amazing at. Owning a Jeep (particularly an older model like my YJ) is basically like owning the base plate to a pile of Legos.

Resurrect the Scrambler name.

The beauty of this concept is that it wouldn’t have to be Jeep, either. Would it work extremely well as a Jeep? Oh, definitely. But if some other company or even a startup decided to take this idea and run with it, it would probably be almost as successful. It’s not like it has any need for actual modern Jeep DNA of

I think that’s part of the Jeep allure to some owners like me, when you run an older Jeep without a top on it. It’s the freedom of a motorcycle without the OMG-I’m-Gonna-Die! paranoia of actually having to ride a motorcycle.

I live in northern Nevada, which isn’t nearly as hot as the southern part of the state but I think it’s safe to say A/C in a Jeep is definitely something you can live with as an optional item. My ‘95 YJ has a dead A/C unit in it, but since I started running it with either a soft top or just a bikini top on it during

So basically, you want a YJ?

Because it costs a hell of a lot of money, and the point of such subsidies is to create and promote industries that can sustain themselves. If Tesla can’t reach the point where they can sustain themselves, then they obviously didn’t have the right solution.

When Tesla can survive without government funding, then maybe we’ll see.

Excellent choice of test drive locations, I live in Carson City and have long used the Virginia City to Reno stretch as a way to really test and have some fun with cars. I haven’t gotten around to it with my 2017 Santa Fe Sport, but I do plan on it before winter kicks in. It’s the kind of drive that I think Top Gear

I don’t see it as bullshit, and I’ve been called a “hater” when it comes to Tesla for my own criticisms of the company. Tesla is definitely making a lot from the government on the whole electric car business, but that really is the reason why the government created these subsidy programs in the first place. They

I think this is the first time I’ve actually read about a 4.0 self destructing, so yeah, definitely a well timed suicide by that old AMC block.

I’ll admit I like the badging on my Santa Fe, but it actually tells you something. Even if it’s almost as bad as Samsung with the “Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition)“ that I had once.
