I think about this weekly as a guy who always used to upgrade my vehicle’s sound system. It sucks.

It’s both, obviously.

Do you think your whining is going to get Jalopnik to move its headquarters or whatever? I don’t mind constructive criticism. That’s not what you’re doing.

The whining must stop. If you don’t like the content, don’t read it.

I mean, I don’t think you can flip the switch overnight. Most places that have gone car-free have done it over time and with significant lead time to allow for things to adjust to meet the impending new reality. You can a lot of the benefit with relatively little pain by simply making it illegal to drive THROUGH the…

So banning cars in the center would have no impact on your scenario and you’ve been hit by cars twice but you’re actually afraid of the things that haven’t hit you? Sounds like you’ve got yourself a pretty coherent argument going here!

Nah, I like Jalopnik. It’s all y’all complainers that should take a hike finally instead of whining in the comments of every article that offends your fee-fees.

They literally do this all over Europe. It’s not rocket surgery.

What facts do you dispute?

Max tow on my 2018 Expedition is 9300 lbs. It was 11k for the truck above. Not sure there’s a huge market for people who will desperately miss that ~1700 lbs of towing capacity. Besides which, the truck above has a payload of 1500 lbs and the new Expeditions are at over 1700 lbs. All filled up as in your example and…

It’s an article about cars. What makes no sense is sitting alone in your 4000 lbs steel, sound-isolated living room in bumper to bumper traffic spewing toxic fumes and endangering anyone not encased in steel so that you can avoid the terrible inhumanity of perhaps walking, biking or taking public transport. I love…

This is a common misconception. They were not built for walkers and bicycle riders. Some of them have made a conscious decision to change that over the last 50 years.

She’s not talking about the suburbs.

E-bike. Also, banning cars in the CENTER of the city wouldn’t have precluded you from driving, it just would have taken longer.

There won’t be unexpected traffic hitting delivery trucks in the middle of the night because personal vehicles won’t be there.

She literally wrote up a well-researched post pointing out all of the many ways cars/trucks are a scourge in dense city centers and you immediately resorted to an anecdotal suburban diatribe about your personal fee-fees that has nothing to do with what she’s talking about and in at least one case argues against a thing…

If there’s one group that has earned our undying trust, it’s US intelligence. 

“It will likely take years to sift through the data and get firm estimates of the deaths directly and indirectly caused by the pandemic”

Let us know when you figure out what the “real” numbers were for China.

Right, the “First Edition” will be the one that comes out in 2024(5,6?) and will cost twice as much. The $29k one will magically never materialize.
