They might buy the car at a “No Credit Needed” sort of lot, but most of time the car dealer themselves are not securing the loan. These are bank loans and you might be surprised that many ‘big name’ banks give out these kind of loans. I worked Capital One Auto loan collections for several years and surprise,…

You know how in Family Feud, they progressive up the score multiplier so that by the last round when they “triple the points” the team that wins that round goes to the final? Or when Pat Sajak spins the $5000 for the “Final Spin” so that each letter is worth $6k which can sometimes make the previous half dozen…

Especially with the line about the drag strip driveway neighbor getting arrested. For what?

What sort of world populated by only Noahs and Methuselahs do you live in where 80 years is only “one or two generations later”?

I love that Caterpillar finally has some competition in the heavy equipment sector.

When the butterflies/secondary intake opened up above 4k rpm it was magic.

Pair that up with the right turbo and you’re gonna see some serious shit.

There were a lot of comments on the subprime lending article getting all high and mighty when people jumped on the example dude’s case. Without double checking details it was financing some ridiculous sum at 20+% on a used truck.

“But the banks!”, came the replies. Can’t it be both? Aren’t there just as many…

Those responsible for sacking the people who have just been sacked have been sacked.

On what planet is the meal order “breakfast, dinner, and supper”?

I was hoping the HD was for Hot Dog. :(

Had the same reaction. Something about colorized old b&w photos and in this case modern b&w shots make you reconsider what things looked like. Shots of old baseball stadiums decked out in bunting must have looked awesome, but black and white misses it. Meanwhile, for me the black and white on these shots highlights…

Rear visibility is overrated, just ask Camaro owners.

No love for the 5cyl radial swaps?

Seems unlikely that depreciation on a brand new vehicle is only costing him $1200 each year. Especially on a luxury marque which tend to have bigger than average depreciation.

Please keep TransTop and all tranny (I don’t care if you only want the stick!) talk off Jalopnik and take it to whatever Gizmodo site it belongs on!

Will people please stop paying bullshit fines. I don’t care if challenging it is inconvenient, that is why they continue to do it. This is a first amendment case and you should know there are groups like the ACLU that would love to litigate this pro bono.

Great piece, although saying “fighting not to lose” suggests we started into this mess to win.

Thrown into one of our three rivers from one of our umpteenzillion bridges. People in Pittsburgh are abysmal drivers in my opinion.
