and after they got that problem handled the dealership said it started having the same issues as the first one. they explained everything in one of the videos.  the whole defender thing is a trainwreck. somethings up with the 4 cylinders. so jlr needed to do some ass kissing and upgraded them to the v6 version and…

the channel is good. that guy in particular threw a big man fit when ford disinvited them from the bronco launch event after they published leaked pictures. good offroad vids. they bought a new defender to test and that mf didnt make it 200 miles before they had to lemon it, then they had to lemon the second one, then…

Has anyone checked whether he’s technically sane before giving his insanity any coverage?

My prediction, based on little but conjecture, as has been the fashion recently, is that economic and financial issues will lead to a large increase in defaults/late payments on car loans. While not as monumental a problem as the mortgage crisis of a decade or so ago, this will be a big deal which could adversely…

the only thing I fear for the new yr is another Jason Torchinsy changli story.

“If you or a loved one have suffered death due to exposer to pyroxylin-coated moleskin please contact the offices of James Sockoloff and Associates, you may be eligible for a cash settlement.”

All that writer needs to do is to put in a claim against the proceeds. And encourage all the other defrauded people to do so as well.

Yikes. The banks get all the money? Does that poor Vanity Fair writer who was stiffed a year’s salary get anything?

I completely agreed with your review of season 2. It really turned into the nostalgia cartoon that everyone thought it would be. What made season 1 a surprise hit was the redemption arc for Johnny and the exploration of how one’s perspective of their life through their own mythmaking in their head makes a person blind…

You got to drive it but didn't buy it, so you dodged the Dodge bullet. And bullets are closely associated with the Dodge muscle cars in some neighborhoods. Cops drive them and so do the gangs.  

The Spark is more fun to drive than the Optima.

In Brazil the Dauphine was nicknamed with the name of a powdered milk brand that had a slogan about how it dissolved without mixing. The biggest irony was the Dauphine being sold by Willys-Overland alongside with the Jeep CJ, the same brand had the most reliable and the least reliable car in the market. 

Another thing about Dauphines, they were remarkably biodegradable.  Not as rust-prone as some Fiats, but still very, very rust-prone.

I was actually thinking of a friend who’s in a tough spot financially (single mom, bad credit, crappy low-wage job that she walks/bikes/bums rides/takes a cab to get to) and she’s exactly who I would tell to keep saving that money because this is an engine failure waiting to happen.

Legacy car [leh-gah-see- kahr](noun): a car made properly by a real car manufacturer.

Yeah, I don’t see it. There’s absolutely zero business case for laundering a Russian SUV through an Italian marque to sell in the U.S. market that isn’t lacking for comparable product. This thing smells like a Russian mobster-fueled RICO investigation waiting to happen.

Well, if nobody else is going to pluck the low-hanging fruit...

Motherfucker, PLEASE. The book isn’t anti-autonomous cars at all. I fucking WISH writing anti-Tesla articles made one tiny bit of difference on book sales. It doesn’t. And I’m not anti-Tesla. But if this is your reaction to this story, perhaps you should seek out your clergyperson or a trusted relative. Maybe a…

And one more thing...she could have just called the fucking phone...

Ah, the memories. How I loved my brutal little Omni GLH Turbo in Santa Fe blue!
