The simple answer is yeah, kinda.

Yep, Mack was owned by RVI (Renault trucks), who was bought by AB Volvo. And don't confuse AB Volvo (trucks, buses, construction equipment, marine engines) with the current Volvo Cars that was once owned by Ford and now by Geely.

Living in Canada where the Suzuki Equator was never sold, I had no idea they were as rare as they are. That makes it even odder that I once saw one (with WA plates) here in B.C.

"The Libby has nothing really to do with Cherokee."

As far as I know, they haven't since the early '00s.

You could be right about GM, but I've never seen one with "SRS" marked anywhere. GM calls it "SIR" and early GM airbags said "Supplemental Inflatable Restraint". Any current one's I've seen say simply "AIRBAG".

You're completely right, though I'd expect a Jalopnik (or Giz, Jez, etc.) writer to be called out if they made an incorrect sports analogy.

It's common, but not universal. GM, Ford, VAG and others simply call them airbags.

SRS = Supplemental Restraint System = Honda's name for airbags

The top three cars get especially scrutinized post-race to ensure they conform to the rules and are therefore "legal". After the chequered flag, they must proceed directly to parc ferme, a secure area where the teams don't have access to the cars.

"Mr. Goodwrench hasn't had a RWD Chevrolet sedan to work on in nearly two decades"

It's worth mentioning that Pontiac first marketed "wide track" as a feature in '59 and all through the '60s and into the '70s.

As far a directors, I'd like to see Cary Fukunaga. Cary who? He's directing all of the first season of True Detective. If you've seen it, especially the last scene in the most recent episode (Ep. 4 "Who Goes There"), you'd want to see more from him too.

"You realize Arch made the comparison in the first place right? This article is about a Wrangler. He then compared it to a Range Rover. Hence, my comparisons."

Not bad, but it kinda reminds me of Red Bull's stripes, especially before the Infiniti sponsorship.

53rd and 6th.

Yeah, B.C. uses blue signs for the same sorts of things, as does Alberta actually. But so many of the roads in mountainous parts of Alberta are within National Parks, where roads and their signage are under federal control. The gas/food/lodging/attraction signs are brown.

That's true for Alaska, I suppose, as it appears that it's done by the Alaska DOT. In Canada's National Parks, it's done by the military.

You've lost me. How does a highly unorthodox method of removing a beached whale relate to the developed science of avalanche control?

This obviously is Western Canada, thus not the same avalanhce in question, but you get the gist.
