It’s less about the vape smoke, and more about the other things a vape-er would have done to the car.

Manufacturing jobs are still declining as a percentage of GDP. And many of the jobs added this past year were in chicken and pork plants where it’s really hard to automate, and where wages are no better than McDonalds. Auto plants and steel manufacturing can only add so much.

Hotel receptionist and fast food worker aren’t as well paying as manufacturing, the move to a service based economy is one of the big reasons why wages aren’t as high as people remember.

Yup, gotta tell you. It’s the Koreans who are taking the bold steps that most of Jalopnik wishes GM would take. 

Welcome to late 2017.

I saw a Buick commercial yesterday basically pointing out their entire line. It made me think. What if there was a law that made car companies show the country where the car was built on all advertising? Not just in tiny letters, but big enough for people to see without trying hard.

Banking on miserable people in a country full of disarray giving in to your lower-perceived-quality brand because they no longer have affordable options is a very weird strategy

Just rip off the band-aid and turn the Vette into a 4-door CUV already. We know it’s coming.

Seriously. The next person they should consider firing is the clown in HR who let her get through.

I’m sure she didn’t just become racist overnight. Did they not check her social before engaging her services?

She posted this shit using an Instagram account with her name and picture front and centre? Behold, the master race. 

I would do anything to see that kind of ticketing here, but that would require traffic officers to be alert, attentive, and active instead of sitting and waiting for the radar gun on the dashboard to beep and the number be high enough to justify the effort of reaching forward and putting the squad car in D.

They are limited to 112mph, so governor removal will become a booming business. As will wrecking companies when their tires inevitably explode because they were only rated to do 112.

Motor trend did a poll a long time ago (back when they did those and had comments). Pretty much everyone agreed that it would be neat, but that Americans couldn’t handle it.

Can’t tell if you are serious or not.

Went over this yesterday, its not all about Brexit. Honda doesnt have a market there anymore. And as the engines and transmissions are sourced from the NA, why just not ship the whole car instead.

Spoken like a non-billionaire.

But it might not be because of that. They have stated that the UK plant & the Turkey plant is closing - the Turkey plant can’t be because of Brexit.

I think Mission Winnow’s actual mission is to see how many words they can write without actually saying anything.
