Jesus enough with the small truck bullshit. OEM’s make trucks bigger because MOST customers want bigger trucks.

Because electric pickups could actually be a gamechanger.

I think the goal is to have EVs in every segment. If GM is serious about EV, then there is no way they would leave their best performing segment out of the mix. 

I’ve seen a few comments saying that even electric vehicles are still technically burning hydrocarbons, since power plants are usually natural gas or coal. I’d like to correct that, and say that some of us live in deregulated energy markets, and we choose the (more expensive) 100% renewable option. (Here in Texas, you…

Usable beds were sacrificed long ago for bigger back seats and higher belt lines. The modern truck bed is a short box that only exists to provide bulk and can’t be reached without deploying a hidden staircase.

I say this as a dyed-in-the-wool environmentalist: at some point, we need to get people who don’t give a shit about the environment to also buy EVs. We need to get everyone (or at least most people) driving vehicles that aren’t powered by fossil fuels if we are to have a hope of preserving at least some of the Earth’s…

The sails didn’t cut down on the Avalanche usability unless you were hauling something very awkward shaped. They were flush with the inside of the bed wall and didn’t take up bed space.

I really want someone to explain to my why a police vehicle should be held responsible for running over someone. They’re not even autonomous.

From Patch.com”Directly before the driver accelerated, his car was surrounded by protesters who asked him to go a different way, according to video taken by witnesses and posted to social media. One protester can be heard telling others to pop the SUV’s tires before the driver hits the gas.”

This “reporting” doesn’t belong in Jalopnik. Jalopnik is a fun lighthearted website with emphasis on the culture of cars and all things mechanical. If you want to present this type of material,put it in “Root”. Also, if this video clip is your “proof” it is very very lame. It doesn’t show anything but wobbly cell…

Okay I give.  This is not car news.  This is click bait drama that i come here to escape.  Sorry guys but I’m gone.  I’ll miss Torch.

The tactic has previously been mostly used by extremist jihadist groups like ISIS and Al Qaeda, as well as Palestinian militants.

I agree but this isn't news either. 

The problem I see when putting myself behind the wheel here is that regardless of my support for the movement the protesters have no idea who I am. Yes I would be very afraid in that situation. I might even succumb to an instinct to floor it to get out of there once the attack on my vehicle started. I didn’t see an…

Jalopnik really going down hill with the reporting. Stick to car news and let The Root post all this bullshit. 

Sorry is this the New York Times?

It’s a fucking car blog. Get this shit out of this website. It is NOT why I come here.

I am so tired of this site and its theatrics

An attack? Really? You know some people are just driving on roads to, you know, drive somewhere? Then they take a wrong turn or whatever and now have the mob after them.

I’m not sure what I’m supposed to have seen that indicates this person ran into a crowd of people. It appears someone smashed their window and they ran off. I would need more video to tell anything more.

protesters brought this on themselves by attacking people in their vehicles. They made it unsafe for a driver to stop, so wtf are they trying to go for here?
