“Antfa" at this point has become a weird conservative boogeyman because in reality it's just people who are against fascists. The only defining trait of someone calling themselves "antifa" is that they think fascists are bad. If you don't think fascists are bad, well, I think you need to learn about some world events

As gas prices go past $4 again and the west coast continues to burn, I’m having a harder time imagining buying something that isn’t a hybrid or EV for my next truck.

I did say “to some degree.” That includes zero degrees.

Why not the Kona/Niro EVs? On paper, they seem pretty 1:1 to the Bolt. With tax credits, they should come in well under $30k as well.

What was the total “fuel” cost (charging, parking) for the electric road trip compared to the estimated fuel cost of a similar (Volvo XC40) ICE vehicle?

I know, destination fee, but it’s still $400 less than the EcoSport.

To the guy whining about taxes: You think those roads build themselves?

Such fragile masculinity on 4 wheels. I bet the owners of those trucks couldn’t define “consent”in a “dating situation” if their lives depended on it.

No dice at $20k, but Miatas of this vintage that are this clean are increasingly rare. We may scoff now, but he can get over $10. That wasn't true a while back. He may get his ask if he waits another 10 years. 

For some people, cars are just appliances and if they don’t know what it is, I tell them. When it comes to younger people and kids, a friendly encounter with a car owner can turn them into an enthusiast. 

Want to encourage more people to stop buying big, inefficient trucks? Make EVs look more attractive?

Ford Flex. It wasn’t a flop, but selling a little over 300,000 units during a run of 12 model years wasn’t enough for the blue oval. Selling a CUV alternative is tough when your customers overwhelmingly prefer a regular old CUV. The cool and funky wagon-ish vehicle lost out bigly to the generic blobs. Sad!

With apologies to Bradley Brownell and the approximately 17 other people who actually put their money where their mouths are... the Regal TourX.

It has been known for years that Tesla Motors’ “autopilot” cannot see stationary objects at interstate speeds. This is going to keep happening because it’s is inherent to the system and it is a system that lulls people into not paying attention by its very nature. Yeah I know what the owner’s manual says. If this were

So the takeaway is Tesla’s autopilot is about as good as a bunch of the worst drivers out there. Really scraping the barrel for excuses.  

You can surrender your license and join the pedestrian club, but speak for yourself only.

So basically this will turn into a “You hate your car and you should be in jail for using a car wash and a real Jalop washes their car with a toothbrush for 8 hours every Saturday” kind of comment section? Got it.

The dude states:

I’m not seeing a big problem here. When Kia first showed up as a brand here, the running joke was “Who would buy a car that was Killed In Action?”.
