words making salad of headline

If you asked me to picture James Taylor, or you asked me to picture Jimmy Buffet, I’d picture the same person. I don’t know which one it is.

You put the filthy things in it too, when you own it. That’s why you get the leather, so it’s easier to clean.
We, as a society, seem to have forgotten that leather is a convenience more than a luxury. MBTex (or VWTex, whatever they call it) is fine too. Dog hair, soda, mud, grease... all come out of leather WAY…

In the far rural midwest you occasionally see 40's pickups with wood bumpers. Very much like what is pictured on the Chevy. While both are slab-like, these are distinct from the bigger push bumpers you see on farm trucks too.
I’ve never seen a restored or rat-rodded pickup with them (chrome or no bumper, respectively)…

Squeezing the question down to last episode: The Americans. The garage scene, Paige’s decision, so much of that episode has stayed with me in the year since it aired.
None of it would work without having watched and been involved in the story up to that point. Kudos to the team for making a final episode that both…

Several years ago in Ocho Rios my wife and I wanted to get away from the resort and away from the tourist trap shops. We hired a driver to just take us into Ocho Rios to wander. He was a little skittish about this (the resort told him to stay on us, I’m sure) but eventually he pointed out a few blocks of market…

“Whether you add the 100 hp by connecting an electric motor to the supercharger or by adding a 100hp electric motor directly to the crankshaft.”
It matters where you add it, it also matters that the compressor/intake/rest of the engine is spec’d and tuned to produce that power.
It’s fair to say that parasitic losses…

Sometimes Jalopnik readers just get tired of having to copyedit the articles.

Are we sure it’s not just a translation error for sunroof?

After T2 and American History X I expected him to have a Leo type career. Shows what I know.

C7 looks better.

I had a ~2015 RAV4 as a rental once. It was a very depressing car. Ugly, dated interior and ugly, dated acceleration. There was really no where to go but up.

Like most, I only watch the majors, but I’ve always enjoyed Novak’s stoicism and perseverance. And when he tried to come out of that a little bit I appreciated the effort. I don’t get why anyone roots against this guy. Rooting FOR Federer, sure... not loving Djoker, sure... but rooting against Djokovic seems ignorant…

If nothing else, I know more about Haas F1 this year than I would have otherwise. So... good job, everyone?

Morning Shift seems like the most appropriate place to say thanks for putting the website title back to “Drive Free or Die.” The “car shopping” title was bland, ugly, and also fairly inaccurate in my case, and I’d imagine for many other Jalops.
IDK if you had anything to do with it, David, but pass on our thanks to PG…

I think Sprint is a front company put up by AA so that they aren’t consistently the worst airline in the country. (I would say the worst airline *flying* in the country, but AA doesn’t actually fly a lot of the time.)

“and they change feel pretty good about the change, he said.“
I’m guessing the Post had copy editors in ‘77. So, this is a mis-transcription?

In 10 years that plaque will bring an extra $10 to the listing on Autotrader.

You hit the only question I have several times, why on earth does HD think their pricing makes sense? It seems like they’re doing everything they can to chase people away.
