To quote you:

The same reason manufacturers do this with almost every new phone, or tablet, or TV, or pair of shoes, or god damned nearly every other thing meant to be purchased

As the proud owner of a rusted up Dodge pickup, I'm not sure whether to feel insulted or complimented

I don't know if it counts as "derelict", but I drive a ratty newer (does 1995 count as newer?) pickup and love it for just that reason. Primered hood, surface rust on the cab (thanks, '90s Chrysler paint!) and dents I have absolutely no intention of fixing all over the bed. It's a truck, not a Lambo dude. It hauls…

I got the stupid idea and it just flowed. Took all of ten minutes :)

Note: I'm not sure what the hell he means by "shitting on a trainer's mattress," but it made me giggle. Thoughts on interpretation?

It was in a reply about 80% down the comment list. I poured through it looking for that specific information :)

According to that Kinja post shared to Oppo earlier, "about a week"

Your post isn't pending, so that's gotta be something right?

I'm glad to have The Grey back. and really excited for their downvote/flag feature they're working on.

I sided not with the "dumbest troll around" as you put it, but against the person who brought trivial bullshit to a place where it's not welcome. That's all. Get over yourself, get over it, or get off your high horse.

Oh, did I upset you? If you want people to mind their own business, maybe you should keep said business off of a public blog with thousands upon thousands of readers.

Could you do us Jalops a favor and turn that "basically never" to "never" then? That'd be great, thanks.

Don't fret; ExtraExtra will be ExtraGrey shortly :)

I can attest to the strength of the 1st gen J-body. I had an '87 and treated it, on a daily basis, like these guys. Hillhopping, desert runs, jumping, and "hot rodding" as much as a 90 horsepower 2.0 mated to a 3-speed slushbox would.

That front is busy. I'm doing my best to reserve judgement for a peek in the flesh, but damn I just cannot like this redesign so far

This one right here

We need SAAB to die.

Signed. If this passes, first thing I'ma do is import a 1998 Suzuki Every.
