As a 33 year old (somewhat) upwardly mobile Millennial who likes sedans, I would actually have the CT4 over the foreign competitors purely because of RWD and the styling. I think it’s one of the best looking Cadillacs in a long long time.

I don’t buy new cars though, and they’d have to heavily incentivize it to get me

I’m so tired 

Can’t stop consuming content if you never started.

Unless bodies start stacking up in the street like cordwood this country’s response to the rona is going to be nonchalance. We are reactionary and arrogant.

I’ve never been more grateful to live in New York State. Our government put us in a good spot. Having NYC way down state, with all of its people and tax income,

It’s crazy isn’t it?

As someone who is dipping his toes back into film photography again, the hardest thing to shoot is definitely cars. So much of shooting cars is about framing them correctly and finding subjects that are set against good backgrounds. A lot of times I’ll spot a car I would like to shoot, but it’s parked in a spot where

The death of trunk space is definitely one of the things that has contributed to the demise of the American sedan. You used to get a much more useful car in the midsize segment/price point. An 82 Malibu and a 14 Malibu are roughly the same size on the outside, but on the inside...

It’s no surprise people have gone to

The new photo released by NASCAR today is decidedly in favor of this take. It's a dang noose. 

I recant. The new photo released today is egregious and compellingly in favor of being seen as it was by the crew member who reported it. Yikes. That’s not the work of a fiddly mechanic who wanted to tie a nice handle. That's a fuckin noose. 

I apologize, I think I get what you’re saying now. It’s not important that the rope was tied that way months ago, it’s that the crew member who reported it couldn’t have known it was tied like that prior to seeing it that day, which makes his reaction justified in the context of the current political climate.

I feel like in 2020 anything is possible lol 

Is it though? Or did one person working in that garage one weekend many months ago get annoyed with trying to grab a rope and say “I’m tying a knot in this like on my pole barn door at home”?

Occam’s Razor says there’s a simpler answer to this question than “a racist guy tied a knot on this garage door here nine months

I think whoever did call the FBI into this might have overreacted at the behest of a large, powerful business. If it was NASCAR then I think maybe they got trolled by one of their own: the official that “found” this thing.

If I was a big douche racist who worked for NASCAR and wanted to make BLM, “the media”, Bubba

Man, finally seeing a picture of it, with some context, really makes me wonder why this blew up like it did.

Is it tied in a way that looks like a hangmans noose? Absolutely.

But this wouldn’t look out of place in any of the factories or warehouses I’ve ever worked in, or in my own garage. It looks like a door pull

Also, VWs base trim interiors are the nicest base trim interiors on the market in my opinion.

As long as it’s actually as useful as a minivan, then I like it. Minivans are good, but no one has really taken a good crack at making them interesting.

If Kia wants to give us something that’s basically a Beefy Big Boi Soul, I’d look at it. The Soul is weird in a good way, it’s just too small for me.

Fuck me, that looks great.

There are other Malaise hoopties I’d rather have for that money, but if these smaller Caddies are your jam then NP.
