They may be buying them but that doesn’t mean they can afford to.

It’s great that someone kept this 26 year old car is such nice shape all these years. But the expected reward for that effort is too steep by nearly double. ND.

Why the local Toyota dealership isn’t an approved repair facility baffles me. 

“. . . they will have to pay an extra $4,500 — which is about $100 more per month over a four-year period.”

Bold move by Nash to introduce quad headlights a year before most auto makers even though it was going to be the last year for the brand. 

Is the person who submitted the Ford Granada story from Europe or did the Jalop staffer google “Ford Granada” and just post the first picture that popped up.

“. . . a steer-by-wire system that will allow buyers to choose either a conventional steering wheel or a yoke . . .”

Sorry. My bad.

I’ve driven both a first gen Leaf and the current version and each stood out as being just a nice, normal car. Pleasant, airy cabin, normal controls, smooth and quiet and, with the current version, pretty normal looking.

South Africa drives on the left side of the road as in the U.K., steering wheel on the right. No?

“I don’t know why you buy an incredibly expensive, luxurious 4WD that never goes off-road.”

Ford Model T. It was designed specifically for the (awful) roads it would be driving on and owners almost literally drove the wheels off them. They survived operating in tortuous conditions that simply don’t exist today except for more extremely off-roading. They seemed to thrive on whatever abuse owners put them…

Gee, do ya think?

No but they sure b*tch about it when gas prices go up a nickel.

I still have respect for him when he stays in his lane but he drifted out of it on that one. All car crashes get investigated, either by the local authorities or, if it’s a major issue potentially affecting hundreds or thousands of cars (i.e. Firestone 500 tires, Takata air bags, various manufacturers’ engine fires,…
