We are in the market to replace my wife’s 2010 Camry with an F-150. She’ll take my ‘08 E550, and I will drive the new F-150 if we buy it.

Why, you ask? Because in the last three years since buying a house, we have rented a pickup three times, and borrowed my dad’s F-150 more times than I can count. Just yesterday, I

Some other seats of note (Context: I am 6'2" with long legs and a thick torso)
Bad seats can be found in the Dodge Charger and Challenger. They look nice but there is almost no upper back support and the thigh support is a joke as well. Other terrible seats are found in the most recent Chevrolet Malibu and the

Boy, the seats in the last generation Altima were supremely comfortable, but I don’t think anything currently on the market, or anything in the future, will beat the Lincoln Navigator’s (optional) bajillion way adjustable seats. Holy mackerel they are supremely comfortable.

Further evidence that most government fees and taxes are not about discouraging one behavior and encouraging another. They are about revenue and nothing else. The British government would implement a daily CO2 tax on exhaling if they thought they could get away with it. And then, when people left “Great” Britain, the

This price is the ultimate embodiment of “no low-ball offers, I know what I have!”

That guy in the headline picture looks like he should be shopping for a Corvette.

If it pleases the crown, might we have thy permission to work for a paycheck as so thyne subjects may not starve to death?

Neutral: This weekend, dad and I worked on his 2007 S600. We replaced the crank shaft positions sensor, the coil packs, all 24(!) spark plugs, and the camshaft position sensor. While we were in there, we cleaned the throttle body. It honestly was not that hard. Probably a 6 on a scale of 1-10. Finding the crank shaft

It’s all about the price of substitutes, even disregarding the KBB value since KBB doesn’t track the value of special cars all that well. For the same or less money, one can easily find a newer BMW 335 or even a 535 with lower mileage and maybe even one with a stick! They’re both quicker, faster, better looking, ride b

I would buy that car at that price in stock condition with about 40,000 fewer miles, but modified by a dolt with over 100k miles, CP.

Anybody else think that the metallic trim surrounding the fake air intake just ahead of the front wheels looks like a cheap, tacky, tacked on afterthought?

Okay, we’re pretty much in agreement. I actually owned a GT500 back when I thought I was hot stuff as a 27 year old salesman. I live in Omaha, NE, where it seems like every household has a pickup. I think at least a slim majority would be just as well served by a minivan, but it seems that most families just don’t

Best wishes as you take charge. Please raise the bar at Jalopnik. The style and content are too frequently sophomoric, amateurish, a genuinely anti automobile. The “takes” aren’t even hot, they’re not well thought and easily debunked, and the objective points are sometimes misreported.

Basically Jalopnik’s readers are

Hey dipshit, we’ve had just over 1,000 deaths in Nebraska. That’s nothing in a state with a population of 2 million. We don’t need to stay at home. Our restaurants are open and we’re doing fine.

I’m going to go out on a limb and say that at least 2/3 of the following are true:
1. You don’t have kids
- Car seats need lots of cubic feet, and bringing kids sometimes means bringing lots of “stuff”
2. You haven’t seen the trunk of a Fusion Hybrid
- Fitting a single stroller, save for the very tiny umbrella strollers,

Erin, do you plan on making any edits to this article, since there are several errors and omissions? I can’t believe the managing editor would publish such a half baked article. 

how about 45 lb/ft gain @ 2000 rpm? Does that tickle your fancy?

Yes it is dumb that the article doesn’t say anything about space under the curve, or that the new torque curve is higher at every RPM and flatter. It’s also astounding that the writer said it adds 20 pounds when it does not. But hey, this is Jalopnik. *Shrug*

Yes, absolutely! But not because of the percentage increase, but because of the space it adds under the curve. Take a look at the graph on the Ford website(hyperlink in story). It adds 42 lb/ft @2000 rpm, which is tremendous!

It doesn’t. Erin doesn’t know what the heck she is writing about. The package ships around 20lbs. That’s the weight of all of the components, including the calibration tool that you plug in momentarily to execute the new tune. To install the new throttle body, throttle body adapter, and CAI, you first have to remove
