Boston to Albany in an hour? Yeah maybe if you mean Worcester to where the pike crosses into NY. I spent years in Albany and made the Boston trip many times. It’s 170 miles minimum with dense urban centers on both ends. Explain this to me. Just go 200 through Springfield? You’re lucky to finish the drive in 3 and a…

I played at launch on last gen, and am old enough to remember most PS/PS2 games, which were so janky that CP77 would have been praised for its stability. Or N64 where you would have to blow on the cartridges just to get them to work. It didn’t have the fit and finish of most R* games, but it wasn’t so glitchy it was…

You have some good points in here but totally lost me when you said supra owners are the reason people still care about Supras and not Toyota. Hell, your entire position about why you dislike the MkV is that it wasn’t made chiefly by Toyota. Case in point, people pay way more for stock supras than 10 second cars…

They had an untimed practice sim in the combat practice area, I found that helpful.

Scheduled for 4/1/2022

I had this discussion with a friend maybe a month ago, and we agreed if Macca is going to survive beyond like 2025 they need to make a SUV. It’s a sad truth, but look at Aston Martin. So they have no choice but to make it have like 1040 hp and demolish a purosangue and urus for $450-500k. Ferrari is going to be…

The GTO was fine, it just wasn’t what the market wanted at the time. Camaro, Challenger (both of which post-date the GTO but are the same idea), GT86, Focus RS sort of (we just never got the OG’s), F Type, there’s a bunch out there. 

I’ve been to about a dozen Michelin starred restaurants and far and away the best meal I’ve ever had was when I took a first date to the now-defunct wd~50 while it was still the nexus of molecular gastronomy. Everything was so purposeful and intense, every tiny bit of flavor was amplified to 11 so even the smallest…

I find the quality and preparation of ingredients at starred restaurants are noticeably better than the up and coming joints. It’s like if you have dark chocolate with coarse sea salt vs Morton’s. It’s not that the Morton’s couldn’t get you a similar effect and taste, but the coarseness of the sea salt has an…

Kindergarteners cry a lot less than average Jalopnik readers these days

If you’re serious about environmental aspects of transportation, please never write another article about SpaceX or BlueOrigin commercial space tourism ever again. This is not a bit, glorifying the rich doing whatever the fuck they want with climate while the rest of us have to adapt to 72 hp 2-cylinders that get…

If that’s your actual takeaway from this article you should reread it after getting your GED

You’re asking for a level 2+ system to do level 5 tasks. We’re not quite there yet.

Looking at the 2000 Chevy lineup...

Not true. I bought a new Hyundai earlier this year, and Bank of America was nearly a full point cheaper to get a 60 month loan over a 48 month. A 36 month was worse. Basically they were changing their cost to borrow, plus overhead/profit, and chopping it into X or Y number of payments with no penalty. If they wanted…

Thanks

That’s a really good point. We can shit on this all we want, but it’s exactly what Enzo would have done. 

So it’s just a particularly sensitive window switch without an auto up/down feature?

I must be missing something. What exactly is different about this than a window switch without an auto down/auto up feature? My Hyundai Elantra doesn’t have automatic windows, so I just push “down” and then let go when the window is where I want it, and it stops moving. Is that... all this is...?

I have a S3 and you can flip it to manual mode and use the paddles. The DCT makes it feel like an actual manual in gear, not some torque converted hydromatic bullshit. I’ve driven only manual cars for the prior 17 years and I don’t really miss it in a sporty daily driver.
