I mean, I feel you on this but you fall outside the design parameters of every vehicle. You fit in your bench seat silverado not because it was designed to fit bigger drivers but kind of on accident. I know that sucks as I know people on the other end of that spectrum who are sub 5' and have a hard time finding…

Yup. I’m in the grey area of “getting by” but “getting by just a little too well.” 

In this age of the internet and taking offense on other peoples’ behalf, I’m betting there will be plenty who fume about what Yost and the Royals “did” to Volquez. But if that’s what his family wanted, it’s probably what he wanted too. I’m sure others have similar stories. When I was a university student, I had 3…

I-70 and I-65 in downtown Indianapolis. Slows down to 50mph which is frankly the most ridiculous speed for a modern highway I’ve ever heard of. I-70 was just fully rebuilt and is a nice 5 lanes wide going into downtown with full width shoulders on both sides... I was once going 15 over (a reasonable 65mph) and got…

This is no place to shift the blame to the victim. While it may have been “all over the news” if you’re a Jalopnik reader, many other people who don’t read Jalopnik might not have been as aware of the recall. And the recall itself has been quite a mess, with different batches of recalls being issued, shortages of…

seems legit, and i mean that seriously. And while the scientist in me is sweating profusely about the sampling error involved with that (economic/geographic skew) its probably very representative of the majority of america

Why in the world wouldn’t they put their diesel in that?

It’s not even a question in my mind.

You’re right you can’t work over 40 hours per week at a single minimum wage job, which usually means either working 2 jobs to get 50+ hours per week, or working 1 job and spending the rest of your time on training for a new job. If anything, it is employee protection laws coming back to haunt the employee - even if an…

I could see this turning into Clarkson as a lead host, ripping on the American, German, Asian cars because he does that anyway with the other hosts being kind of secondary and serving the purpose of sticking up for the cars from their region. I could see some potential in that. The challenges would involve each…

I find it amusing that you could not justify spending more than natural market forces would support on wind power, then use solar power as an example of a justifiable source of power. The only reason solar power exists, much like wind power, is due to government subsidies. Solar and wind both have huge hidden costs,…

Sex.

Plus, Costco includes spouse driver without the odious "extra driver" fee.

The problem, when your post is taken at face value, is that the Ridgeline was only 2 years old at that point.

I don't understand the hate for this truck. It was way more refined than any full size truck, and was a lot nicer inside as well. Yes, it was underpowered, but you really don't NEED that much power to be honest. I tow a 3500lb boat with my 95 Audi S6 wagon. I have 290hp. It's a turbo with a 5spd, so I don't have…

Oh, you guys like electric cars that look like regular cars (like the Model S)? Sorry, we thought people wanted their electric cars to look like bad sci-fi movie wheeled pods! Well, here you go!

and the rest of us who don't care about that shit pay for it...
