Sure, but in legit transactions the vehicle is titled in *your name* with the bank listed as a lien holder. You legally own the car, but the bank has a lien on it until you finish paying off the loan and can repo if you don’t

If the BHPH place didn’t actually put the title in the lady’s name, then that could explain

This is fair. My argument based on the anecdotal evidence of 1 is as ludicrous as Bradley’s. It was a visceral knee jerk reaction to a dumb statement.

Cycling is as dangerous as you make it. And as Saigon_Design points out these drivers are likely adrenaline junkies and could be quite possibly sending it over shit they

Riding bicycles is incredibly fucking dangerous

Creepers aren’t sinister. Annoying AF, perhaps, but not sinister.

You know what would be even cooler than a clutch on an EV?

A clutch on a CT4.

I mean, Mach-E is a fine name. They should have just stopped there.

Buying *any* used rental car is typically a bad idea.

When I was traveling for work heavily in my early 20s, my teammates and I beat the living snot out of our rental cars. In an Ohio and/or Utah junkyard somewhere there is a Jetta with a cracked gearbox, Two Mazda 6s with destroyed oil pans, and 3 or 4 Ford Tauruses

I’m in a suburb of Chicago. Homes fitting your description with 2k square feet on 1/4 acre lots start around $600k.

Ha. This article just goes to remind me of how old the family fleet is. Other than the smoking bits and the crank windows, our cars have just about everything on this list. Model years 2023, 2011, 2006, and 2006.

Before we bought one of the ‘06 cars (that’s the kids car) we test drove an ‘18 Kia Rio with a 6 speed

Fortunately, it looks like that system never made it to the R171 chassis, but I’ll probably pull the negative lead anyway.  Just in case.

I’m about to order parts to do the brakes on my wife’s ‘06 SLK. Pads, rotors, brake hoses with shipping is about $400. Figure my time is worth another...I dunno...200 bucks?

When it’s clean, and in the sun with the top up, and you squint really hard, it looks like an SLR.

Or get a low mileage, late-model year F82, avoid the beaver grille and maybe have a few benjamins left over for upgraded brakes and tires.

I’ll take “Obvious Shit for $500, Alex”

Your comment is still there, it’s just in the grays.  Unsure why.  I don’t know the rules about who gets automatic approval and who gets pending approval.  <shrug/>

I will concede that Elon being an utter douche canoe isn’t doing the brand any favors, but I don’t think they’ll go out of business any time soon.

If he continues to be a raging weirdo and doubles down on the batshit crazy stuff I can very much see brand erosion starting to take hold (maybe already is?), especially

This seems like a bit of an...extreme...take. Tesla has been hugely successful with the Model 3, Y, and S (possibly the X as well but $$$), this is one model out of 4 - and early builds at that. If GM made it out of the 80s with all the crap they sold to the U.S. public, I think Tesla can survive this.

Next, the

So it comes back to what I’ve commented on before for other articles.

Infinitis (with perhaps the exception of the latest gen QX60) are the Dollar General of luxury cars. Neither good, nor bad, just meh.

Man, so many articles in the past few months shitting all over Infiniti, yet here is an article saying “Turns out the Q50 isn’t so bad after all”

Which is it?

Yeah, that’s a Canadian thing.  In the U.S. you’re only required to show a photo ID to TSA at the security check point, you’re not at all required to show ID to the gate agent when you board the aircraft.

y’all forgot about Jalopnik.  That site has been real trash for the last 6-9 months.
