“Friendly neighborhood car sales men here...”

I guess, but I understand what they are doing and it makes sense. I do like that the GLA45 AMG and the GLE450 have almost the same output, 375 and 362. It makes sense, especially when the C43 AMG of the early 00's was making 302hp from a NA 4.3L and the C55 AMG was at 362hp 14 years ago. The 45/450 seem to be very…

Just seems like putting your critique in direct response to his heartfelt goodbye was a little strong. I guess just not reading his articles wasn’t an option?

I differ. I find it real damn bad.

At this point it’s not an argument made in isolation.  UAW okayed a less advantageous contract 8 years ago during the recovery from the bailout on the argument that it was necessary to keep the company afloat, and GM has been extremely profitable in those years.  None of those big profits have made their way yet to…

On one hand, you have the Chinese government who wants the ability to extradite residents of Hong Kong with no oversight. The same Chinese government that regularly disappears people in it’s custody, and is running literal concentration camps for ethnic minorities and political dissidents.

Youre ignoring that GM has done well over 10B in stock buybacks in the last few years - my point is that GM has not prioritized product and employees, rather, they have prioritized making their large stockholders (who are already rich) richer.

“You can’t be reactionary in the auto market, you have to plan ahead.”

Wish I had something to say other than, keep fucking shit up protesters. We’d try to help if we weren’t dealing with our own authoritarians (and those happy to sit back and enable them).

The British tabloid press continues to be one moral step below guys who sell fake insulin but the real story here is how rugby union has managed to be the most progressive “tough guy” sport on the planet.

...there’s no denying that the aluminum-bodied 2020 Land Rover Defender looks cool.

If you can learn, and train yourself to recognize, the difference between “I’m offended because I’m a self-important, moralizing person.” and “I’m offended because you’re minimizing actual harm that has happened to me because we live in an unjust system.” you will have made the first step toward being a better human…

Owning an RS6 outside of the warranty period? Do you also share needles?

It looks nice, but... is it going to be wrong wheel drive?

I was reading a comparison graph on either C&D or R&T and the Supra beat out the Z4 and Cayman in most road holding stats. And in straight line acceleration. I’m not saying the Cayman is not a better sports car because I do think it is. But it’s also more expensive. My basic point is that the Supra does have a place…

Yeah, I live in the city with no garage and a slanted, narrow driveway. Even just getting the calipers off my car during a brake job was scary. lol

This is what separates the real jalops from the “users”. A real Jalop doesn’t fear a clutch change. Of course my comment is fairly snobby too because it pre-supposes everyone has some place to work on their car.

Dylan Roof got Burger King after mowing down a black church.

Although, as we learned with Steve Scalise, this doesn’t always hold true.  The thesis of Hamilton’s argument, however, does always hold true.

They don’t care about anything until it effects them monetarily.
