Well I hope that I didn’t ruin it for you. I don’t know what the JT system is like but the Krona exhaust on the 9-5 is definitely on the louder side.

The kind of person who peaked in high school I presume. I feel sorry for those people. 

Glad you liked it. Be sure to come back for more. 

I am 6'5" and the driver’s seat in an Element absolutely does not go far back enough. My mom had a 2003 Element and it was an uncomfortable car for me to drive. I always ended up driving it with my legs splayed out because the seat wouldn’t go back far enough. To put things into perspective my mom is 5'9" and she…

I have a hard time taking people who complain about staying awake seriously. I work rotating 12 hour shifts at my job. I’m currently on the night shift at the moment and I go back to working day shifts next week. It’s really cute to hear people who work 8-5 M-F whine about how tired they are or how two weeks after…

Well this particular Forester has a drivetrain in it that it shouldn’t have so that isn’t helping its cause. Frankenstein cars are almost always less reliable than cars with the parts they were originally designed to have. 

Not to mention everything they have could probably easily fit in the back of the Forester

If you have a loud or boomy exhaust it gets pretty irritating after a few hours. My Krona exhaust on my 2004 9-5 Aero I used to have had horrendous drone on the highway. I noticed I always felt a lot more worn down after taking long road trips with that setup than I did with the stock exhaust. 

I don’t get it either. $20,000 in the used truck market either buys you a low mileage 2wd regular cab stripper truck or a 5+ year old 4x4 crew cab with decent options but has around 100,000 miles if not more. From a value for money standpoint buying a used truck is terrible. 

Just to put things into perspective there have been three generations of F-150s in the same amount of time that the second generation Tundra has existed. Three! GM is also coming out with their 3rd generation of full size pickups since the second gen Tundra has been around as well. It’s getting embarrassing at this…

I read an article about a guy who supposedly retired at age 34 and makes $200k a year in passive income. That’s great for him but they didn’t tell us what his circumstances were beforehand that led up to him being able to do that. If you make $36k a year at your day job then retiring at 34 is just not going to happen.…

It’s not incorrect though. Your GPA is pretty worthless after you graduate college. Grades don’t define someone. 

My college GPA is a mediocre 2.7 and nobody who interviewed me gave a fuck. Unless you want to be a doctor or go to grad school your GPA is meaningless.

Clarkson’s philosophy, clearly, is that you don’t need to get good grades to succeed in life.

Yeah I would have thought someone inspected the frames before they slapped anything else on them.

How is Taxachussetts the only state with 0% variation in your credit score determining your insurance rates?

I find all of sorts of errors and misspellings in Jalopnik’s articles on a regular basis. They really need to hire a proofreader or something. Then again they’ve also never really been what I would consider professional. 

Farmers insurance often seems to be one of the most expensive choices. My dad works for Farmers insurance and he told me that there are a lot of times where he wishes that he didn’t have Farmers as his insurance provider. But he believes in being loyal to the company he works for. 

It’s true but that’s not really a new thing. They’ve been doing that for years. Employers want to make sure that you’re not going to be a liability with your own money as well as the company’s money. Credit scores and debt ratios are seen as something that determines how responsible an individual is and hiring…

My dad works for Farmer’s Insurance. He doesn’t even get any perks with them on insurance but their credit union is pretty badass.
