I’ll bet he’s regretting that stupid formerly-known-as-tweet. Maybe if he’d laid off of the said double-poor fancy scotch, he wouldn’t have been so...disinhibited. 

I certainly don’t condone driving under the influence of cannabis or any other psychoactive substance. But on the road, I’m more concerned about aggressive driving, such as that associated with road rage.

The late Anton Yelchin thinks so, too.

Well, okay. Everybody’s different.

Send lawyers, “drugs, guns and sex workers,” and money...bum de bum bum bum...

This alone would keep me from buying a Tesla, as if there weren’t enough reasons already (eg, Musk is an insufferable a-hole).

Absolutely. We bought a used Fiesta with a 5-speed for maybe $2,000 less than the automatic, and it had much lower mileage than the automatics I’ve seen advertised. And with the 5-speed, we avoided the disastrous PowerShift automatic.

The resemblance between the Ford 500 and the VW Passat (the top left photo is an Audi, no?) is unmistakable and immediately recognizable. It’s as if Ford set out to make a 1.20 scale model of the Passat.

As a youngster, I rode with Mom and Dad in a car just like this at the GM exhibit at the 1964 NY World’s Fair. If I remember the yellow from that along ago. I must have soft spot for it. Mustangs and other cars also came in that faded yellow shade. BTW, how is that Lexus in the photo yellow? It certainly looks orange…

I don’t know about northeast Ohio, but here in northeast NJ clean, well-maintained cars of any sort with reasonable low mileage are a bit hard to come by at this price. Sure, it embodies some of the worst American car traits, with more room for the engine than for the passengers and panel gaps visible a mile away, but…

That’s why it was called the Mercury Cougar.

A good number of people who buy these cars are at risk of imprisonment for narcotics distribution, tax evasion, or other crimes. How are they supposed to sell them if they need money for lawyers or are headed to the big house.

I had a Taurus as a rental once. Half the interior space was taken up by the dashboard and console, so for its size it was remarkably un-roomy.

Thank God. As a metro NYC area resident and former commuter, I can tell you that NJ Transit has always take a back seat to Amtrak in sharing the current tunnel, resulting in frequent and substantial delays and wasted time for many thousands of riders. As I understand it, this bottleneck also limits the frequency of…

Even before the “selvage” revelation, I was a no go on this car. Why would I pay that much for 3- or 4-year-old Tesla whose main warranty is about to expire, when prices have been cut on new models. Re Tesla’s notorious build quality issues, one could argue that this car’s age and mileage exonerate it of such problems…

Toyota Yaris...

The 2011 and after Focus and Fiesta have bad reps because of the notorious PowerShift automatic transmission, but even the stick-shift cars may suffer value-wise, even though the manual transmission doesn’t have those problems. And, of course, a manual transmission for most cars makes for a harder sell, advantaging…

…and its name is Widowmaker.

I’m reading this some days after it was posted and I’m surprised to see that so many of the comments are about safety. I guess that resulted from asking whether the Mustang could be a daily driver.

It was a good idea to change the name. Any racial insensitivity aside, I don’t how crackpipe got started as an idiom for being swindled buying a used car, unless the payments for it were $20 every 4 hours.
