Hauls 2,500 lbs inside while towing 5,000 lbs., fits 4'x8' sheet goods, hooks U-turns like a Miata and fits in a residential garage.

Truck making delivery backed into shuttle, which was stopped.

GMC’s full-size pickup design was over a decade old by 1984. The original makes more sense:

They’ve never invaded another country.

Just look at the bottom of the ball in that picture above—it was sooo close to coming out of that socket, sending the wheel flying off my vehicle, and possibly causing my car to lose control as the rotor ground against the asphalt.

Instead of an actual list of options specific to the car for sale, a giant cut & paste list of “options” which are just standard features: anti-lock disk brakes, air conditioning, power steering, etc. Useless noise.

Let’s give credit where it’s due - to the great Syd Mead, who designed the original, and seems even to have influenced George Hull’s style right down to his signature.

Really just the former. The staff and commentariat here excel at glibness, but most members of both groups don’t know very much about cars at all.

We’re living in a golden age of crash safety and headlights that don’t suck. That’s fantastic.

The world has lost its collective mind when it comes to human-machine interfaces.

That is the worst user interface in the history of the automobile. The number of wiper speeds is the least of its problems.

Jalopnik writers and most of the commentariat imagines that 1) “the law” is some sort procedure manual for driving, which it certainly isn’t, and 2) that it is a cohesive, thought-out system when it’s mostly a collection of ad-hoc political reactions to interest groups and public pressure.

...because Tesla drivers keep taking their eyes off the road to work that terrible touch screen.

Your reply and those of my other critics illustrate why this test is not particularly useful. As a comparative measure it does not tell you the things you imagine it does.

It doesn’t give you much of a picture of anything, other than “huge power car optimized for this particular record.” There are more powerful cars that accelerate faster, brake faster, lap faster, grip better and weigh less but score infinity because they aren’t geared pointlessly high.

0-to-xMPH-to-0 is not very interesting. It mixes together too many different performance measurements into one figure that doesn’t tell you that much about the car and isn’t very useful for comparison. Is 36seconds good? If you say so. A Porsche 917/30 has a time of infinity seconds.

You’ve been peddling a caricature of Alfa Romeo, and now you’re peddling a caricature of the pushback.

I like that. A good steering wheel is a good steering wheel whether in a sports car or an SUV. If a manufacturer does something right, they should use it across the range.

All of the world’s lowest drag cars accommodate front plates just fine.
