IMS is a non issue on this motor. They don’t fail and also cannot be replaced without tearing down the whole motor, unlike earlier M96 engines.

I know no one likes a “don’t let the door hit you on your way out” type post but damn I feel kinda heavy for this. For the last close to 15 years my number one bookmark on my favorites list was Jalopnik and today I’m deciding to change that. There are a lot of phenomenal writers who have come and gone in that time. I…

Hey, Jason, can you put up a poll, kind of like Nice Price or No Dice? But more like this:

I’m just one data point, but I traded a Tesla in for Camaro SS back in January, for the reason that the car delivered on the promises it made (mostly), but being a customer of Elon Musk is just so goddamn infuriating.

The New York Post? That’s Rupert Murdock’s sensationalist tabloid that’s been called “a force for evil.”

I think the best way to look at it is the net effect. Yes, it is climate tourism. Racing pollutes. Elizabeth flying to Greenland pollutes. Taking a trip to visit a melting iceberg pollutes.

If you buy that Miata for $20k, I’ll give you $4k for it right now and save you the hassle of wrecking it.

The minefield between Mauritania and Morocco / Western Sahara is quite tense the first time you drive through it. Stay on the soft sand - if you think you see a road surface, that’s more likely to have landmines.

It's a perfectly cromulent word

The article was published without clarifying “Toyota inline-six” because of an editing mishap on my part, seeing Toyota repeated and thinking I’d made a mistake without re-re-reading the full sentence. It was edited to what it is now.

Is anybody else having trouble with the comments section not showing up sometimes? It seems I have to refresh the page 3-4 times before it appears.

Neutral: NASA’s crawler-transport, 125.7 U.S. gal/mi. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crawler-transporter

Just have the owner of the dealership franchise conduct the ride-along. Eliminate exposure to their employees and a great motivational tool to show that they “are in this with us”.

Airport workers just aren’t showing up for their shifts. And probably rightly so, since the higher ups are just fucking morons. There is incompetence everywhere and this virus is exposing it all. Employees coming in contact with possibly sick passengers without protective gear?

Neutral:

Jason, I think you can just wire your favorite Universal Generic Taillamp to these pins. You have all the pins you need to connect a generic lamp, and there doesn’t seem to be any fancy “decoding” going on here . The circuit board is just a LED driver, like a LED bulb you’d buy at the hardware store, not a…

It looks like the connector is just sending signals to that circuit board, which has a small embedded computer to interpret those signals and translate them into whatever combination of lights is needed. I think that’s what’s going on, at least—all I can tell is that it’s not as simple as a wire per brake lamp, tail,…

Fuck off, Don.
