On this day, highway administrators pile into a car and take a ceremonial drive through a paper ribbon at the entrance to the final segment, known as the West Leg, of the infamous Dan Ryan Expressway in Chicago. (Most of the Dan Ryan proper had opened in 1961; construction on the West Leg, or Interstate 57, began in…

Fuel tax revenue has basically kept up with inflation over the last 30 years. Do we have any way to measure the efficient use of that revenue? http://www.taxpolicycenter.org/taxfacts/displ…

Starred it, but will join in with others commenting here that more gas tax doesn't necessarily equal better roads. The answer to inefficient government is not higher taxes (and that's more political than I try to ever get in online comments.)

Seems Sergio loves John Elkaan and hates the Ford Explorer, especially older ones with the 4.0 liter engine. Also, as commenter DJM1390 points out, Fiat probably wouldn't name a large car the 300 while keeping the 500 as a small car. Or maybe they would and that's why this is so brilliant.

How it works in the KC region:

(QUICK PERSONAL NOTE! This is my 100th column since I was officially hired by Jalopnik back in February. Since it marks the end of the road with my Ferrari, I think it's a fitting milestone. Thank you to everyone for the support, the kind words, the e-mails, the positive comments, and – especially to the many readers…

Galant VR4 "normal" enough for this list?

Shooting on white paper background for the profile makes the retouch a LOT easier.

'67 MGB that was my 14th birthday present (a father son project that my dad never had time for) - wrecked hard in the rain, sold what was left to a former brother-in-law. Probably parted out.
'86 MR2 I bought myself (with help from Mom) - traded in, I think on a Z31, likely crushed.

Good piece, but I've never understood why any reporters are allowed in the locker room. Corporations don't let reporters rush the boardroom after they announce earnings, reporters can't waltz into a police station to get the instant reaction there... why do the leagues allow it?

I don't know what to make of this list, but I don't like it. Not much at all.

Parking is used as a verb present tense. There is a car parked, there is no "parking" in this video. Your headline is bad and you should feel bad for posting it. But it's a clickbait headline on a clickbait post, so... stop posting clickbait? (bahaha - jk, I know it's Gawker)

Geez a core 10. That's difficult. It will be bent to a generation/geography. I'm late 30's midwest ... here goes (no order, just numbers so I don't lose count):

10, 9, 3, 2, and 1 are things I knew. I guess I'm as big a geek as I thought. Now I want a Sera, also.

Looks better on a stand, actually. 928 engine bay so tight.

Resale values of recent model year VWs would disagree with your assesment.

Why is Sarah Silverman selling Buicks in China?

All for it, but that styling has to go. It's too... old Ford Escape or Rav 4 or... something. I like the use of flat black plastics (I liked the Liberty enough to buy one) but the bulgy bug eyed fake rivet stupid grill cutout stuff needs to go. There is nothing wrong, and a whole lot right, with making your small…
