Toyotas, Hondas and a fluke BMW.

Too bad they are all so effing ugly.

ONE German car.  The rest are Asian.  Not really surprising.  I’d happily drive any one of them.

That BMW may do good in ‘initial’ reliability but all that plastic under the hood is designed to crumble and fall apart after a few years of heat cycling.

Great username...reminds me of some more colorful commenatators from back in the day. 

The Toyota Highlander Hybrid is arguably the best three-row midsize crossover on the market. It gets great gas mileage, rides well and has plenty of room for second-row passengers

Sure this is not the list of the most boring cars?

Honestly anyone who doesn’t think those are cool is kidding themselves. RWD, manual, very turbocharged, boxy styling with giant fender flares, popup headlights.....if you don’t think that’s the tightest shit then get out of my face

Buddy of mine got a Conquest in high school circa 1993. A week into owning it he wrapped it around a lightpole. A month later he was in a Starion.

There is a very specific age group you’d need to fall into to think that Conquest is cool, and anyone outside that group is going to think it’s awful. I do fall into that group, and that thing is fucking RAD

As of a year ago, according to NBC Los Angeles, 66 people from 12 different addresses were still in city paid hotel rooms, 87 of the 408 total claims against the city were settled, the LAPD had paid out $281,316.13 to victims, the LA city council provided an additional $10,000 per the 26 most severely affected

When you only meant to blow the bloody door off.

Where the heck are these numbers coming from? F1 hasn’t had in-race refueling since 2010, so I highly doubt that it’s worth $350k to fill a stationary car in the garage under no urgency.  That alone makes me question if these numbers are credible for anything at all.

I know why it happens; I’m well aware. I’m simply saying it exists, which is what the previous person to me claimed that it did not.

Midwest resident here. I don’t know what it is, but Stellantis group vehicles appear to rust faster than anything else I see around here. There are fairly new Rams and Jeeps I see on the daily with visible rust bubbles under the paint in all the problem areas. 

The vast majority of team members are not paid fairly well at all. If you’re a mechanic, or lower-level engineer, you are being paid far less than you’d get if you were an engineer in a more traditional field.

This is especially true when you factor in that buying new, often with dealer financing and good credit, can get you below market interest rates on the loan, which is basically a form of free or discounted money.  That said, Jalop doesn’t always recommend buying used.  They’ve clarified that over the last few years as

Seems like scheduling the races in a more intelligent way would help too.

Sure would be nice if the lower level positions banded together to unionize (or whatever similar option is available at their main location) for higher pay, better conditions and such.

There is so many posts on jalopnik about never buying new. When Wrangler and Tacoma shopping, especially in the upper midwest salt snow and rust zone. Buying new often makes more sense and is much faster and easier.
