Plus, there’s the emotional toll on the person’s friends and family.

I don’t ride anymore, but when I did, I never understood the love of not wearing a helmet. Having hit giant bugs that slammed into the helmet so loudly it made my ears ring, I can’t imagine how I would have remained on two wheels if that happened without a helmet.

I’m only one experience in millions, but my wife had a Hyundai Veloster a few years back, and it was damn near bullet proof. Only reason we got rid of it was for something bigger because our kids grew.

I live in a small town where the one full-time cop went to high school with my wife, this is relevant later.

Take that turn slower, telephone poles don’t really move.

Ford joins Red Bull in 2026. Max’s contract is until 2028.

Anyone who tells you that a Jeep Wrangler is great in the snow has never driven a car that is truly great in the snow. I had snow tires on mine and it still sucked. Add in that the windshield wipers ice up because the HVAC can’t keep up with the cold and the shitty stock headlights, brings together a rather unhappy

Pie crust in a pie pan. Cut up the left-over turkey put it in the pie pan. Take the left-over veggies, put them in the pie pan. Take the left-over gravy, pour it in the pie pan. Take the left-over stuffing, put it on top. Heat up. Leftover Thanksgiving pot pie.

Monks need vacations too.

The current RAV-4 Prime. 0-60 5.6 seconds, granted not that great when compared to an AMG Mercedes wagon, but given the only car faster in the current Toyota line up is the Supra, and the instant torque off the line, I think it qualifies as a solid sleeper. But, 0-60 aside, it seems the sweet spot is 60-80 mph which

Anything would be better than their livery in Japan.

I would like to purchase a vehicle that I can begin to take to HPDE events and track days, but also won’t bleed my wallet dry.

I am trying to figure out if Mr. Rodriguez, an automobile journalist, truly doesn’t know about this ‘genius’ function that exists on blinkers or is he just trolling all of us. For reference, his last article was about the amazing windshield wipers on new Wrangler which have nozzles on the wipers, just like so many

Granted, the Tesla Emergency Response Guide does not recommend submerging the car to cool the batteries and/or extinguish a fire, it doesn’t flatly say not to, and first responders have successfully used this method.

Any chance this is actually a safety device for first responders to use so a Tesla (or other EV) can be submerged in should it catch fire?

Jalopnik 1: Hey, I think F1 cars from 2019 looked better than F1 cars from 2022, we should do a slide show on that.

I’d like to read more about your experience at the Austrian GP. We have planned and cancelled that trip two times now (thank you covid and Russia). 

I am looking forward to getting back to Montreal this June!

I had an ‘89 SPG and when it wasn’t doing annoying things, it was great to drive. However, if I were laundering money on one of these, I would look for an ‘88 as there was no airbag so the tri-spoke steering wheel was in place, nor were there automatic seatbelts like in my ‘89 (which never worked).

Upstate NY and Massachusetts (and probably other places):
