Winnipeg.

We’re sorry.

My city’s police force announced a $2 million dollar budget shortfall 2 years ago and then proceeded to order an armoured “rescue” vehicle. You’re more likely to get shot by our fine cops than randomly shot by someone unknown to you.

Most of it is now divided at least. But there’s still at grade intersections everywhere.

Maybe for a trip that ends there it’s fine. But driving across it is unbearable.

I’d rather drive across the prairies than through northern Ontario. There’s at least stuff to see on the prairies, Northern Ontario is just trees and rocks.

Large parts of the Trans Canada are still a highway, not a freeway/expressway.

The standard ‘K swap’ will be the king for several years to come.

Dear Jalopnik staff,

The real issue is that Takata is responsible for replacing all those inflators. If they aren’t accountable, the cost will either be eaten up by the automakers which won’t happen. Or be passed onto the consumers.

If ~15 people a year died because of airbags, I should really go and disable all 7 in my car. Just to be safe. /s

It was never going to end in our lifetime. Now it may never end.

So a basal skull fracture would have been more humane?

Even some 16 inch sizes are becoming the victim of ‘size proliferation’. As new tire models are introduced, manufacturers simply aren’t supporting less popular sizes. Or, leaving smaller sizes on older designs until that design gets mothballed.

On a modern car, you can’t really just throw different diameter tires on there. The ABS/traction control will go bonkers and the speedo will go out.

By using a tire stretcher of course.

That table looks familiar.

I’m going to throw in a curve ball here. What about some Caliber SRT4 seats? They’re probably the best part about the car. I believe the Neon SRT4 seats are pretty similar, but I’m not 100% sure.

The best kind of weight reduction.

It was the 80s. Almost everything automotive was junk.
