Actually consumers *are* getting what they want. Enthusiasts are a shrinking minority.  People would rather text than drive.  It’s the sad vicious cycle of more automation creating less engaged drivers creating more automation creating less engaged drivers...

I wonder how much of this delay in production is due to lessons learned from the launch of first generation direct injection, and they want the engine to last as long as possible.

The steering wheel may be the most bacteria resides but I generally don’t care as long as they are not crusty with gunk. Every surface you touch is going to be dirty, I just don’t want that surface to be covered with miscellaneous detritus.

I don’t pass judgement on people who want to drive the speed limit on surface streets. Just don’t take a minute to accelerate to a respectable speed for no good reason if you’re not a semi truck. Because frankly I drive the speed limit on streets, so yea, enjoy riding the rear of my car. I will however edge up a bit…

Can you name a single competitive first person shooter player who is at or near the top of their respective major game? This is not a challenge, well maybe sort of a little, but I’m really curious.

Can I have my seats upholsterd in panda skin and fuel converted from pangolin blood?

I have a 1995 Ford Probe GT (147k+ miles) with kinda/sorta the same-ish issue. Turning the ignition switch results in the usual clicking of relays and everything else involved, EXCEPT for the starter motor actually turning. However persistence pays off and someTimes it will start on the first try (and occasionally…

$kayception.  Jalopnik can’t handle that.

More importantly, at least she didn’t kill someone else with her moment of stupidity.

This. Easy modest tune for a few hundred dollars will probably fix it.  Trying to get the Toyobaru an equivalent amount of more power surely requires more than that.

The donation isn’t just about the money he gets from this, it’s also about the jump start in publicity and exposure.  At least for a while more people will flock to his channel to see what he’s about, and some will stay if he’s actually entertaining/skilled.

As a guy who is generally pro-police and has many friends in the force, I can tell you that I’ve seen some pretty ticky-tack bullshit “gut feel” incidents first hand on ride alongs and third hand from their stories.

Didn’t expect to come to a Jalopnik article and see the comment section dominated by people from The Takeout.

If for some strange twist of fate I came to own that thing, I would disable that front light up “INFINITI” immediately. Not only stupid looking in a rear view mirror but I don’t need such a garish, obnoxious billboard letting everybody know what vehicle I’m driving.

Just wait until Lady Gaga achieves her final form.

For all of you complaining about the crappy quality of the rubber shift boot, this is the 21st century, make it a silicone shift boot.

BattleTech by Harebrained Schemes for a few hours here and there.

Excluding the droves of people who either can’t be bothered to aim their headlights correctly or drive around with their high beams on constantly...

Adjusting your mirrors correctly also gives you increased vigilance and awareness. You absolutely should do the shoulder glance when changing lanes even if your mirrors are adjusted properly, so those that don’t aren’t doing it right anyway.

Impressed with the progressive cover art.
