Aw jeez, sad to see Autoblog turn into yet another VC zombie site.”

The biggest problem at Autoblog was that the commentariat was primarily comprised of aging tRumpy boomer morons, always eager to show what monumental pieces of shit they were. ANY article relating to crime would generate a bunch of predictable racism...”tHoSe PEopLE come here and blah blah blah...” or “tHAt’S whAt…

Vulture Capitalism will ruin everything good before we kill it off. 

Topgear, Autoblog and Jalopnik was my order for automotive sites every morning and evening.  That really sucks. 

All forms of writing, including journalism, are art. If you’re as old as me, you remember the heydays of Road & Track and Car and Driver, when they had really good writers doing the journalism, and even better writers doing editorial and storytelling pieces. But really good writers cost money, and that eats into…

Man, for years my normal first two sites I opened rotation was Autoblog and Jalopnik. As you mentioned, there was a strong difference in the two blog styles that complimented each other very well and left us, the readership, with a wealth of information on all the goings on in the auto world.

You’re getting into av geek pedantics with details the average Jalop on here wouldn’t understand. I’m boiling it down to the headline.

It’s quiet (WAY quieter than an ICE vehicle I’ve driven outside of high end lux models), comfortable and has good range (300'ish real world). We don’t miss CarPlay; it takes a little adjusting, but it’s not nearly the world collapsing change everyone pretends it is. The Chevy UI is easy and intuitive. Build quality is…

Give us something with 250 mi range for $25,000. Real $25,000, not it’s $33k minus $7,500 in tax credits.

100% can see this happening. Chevy and Ford come out with an EV truck the size of the Maverick, that starts at $28k and the demand is off the charts. Dealers only order fully loaded ones and sell with their markups. They are now $45k pushing $50k and no one is buying. EVs are declared a failure and they stop making…

You just know that when the dust settles, the R2 is going to creep into the $60,000 range, meanwhile the R3 will be quietly cancelled and never spoken of again.

Still a tough sell, to be honest.  

Can’t you already buy a used Vinfast SUV for like $12? 

Now if they could only offer a dealership experience that wasn’t actively trying to upset every customer that walked through the door.

“Elon Musk. Please fix this.”

Yeah. Definitely not a cult.

Every attempt at registering a Cybertruck should require a vision test, because people this blind to what’s right in front of their faces shouldn’t be driving.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes?

Freeze Peach is only for Musk, the rest of us are his servants.
