The deaths might be 33,000 higher than anticipated, but the number of deaths has been steadily decreasing since 2004, as per the graph...

Except it is the city, not the company that is being difficult. The company, per the article is the one playing by the rules.

I genuinely want one of these. A year or so ago I did a letter to Doug about a car for living in Chicago. Iirc, the verdict was get a V6/Ecoboost Mustang (HA!, right...).

I both laughed really hard and cringed even harder (Mustang fan here).

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. It's shitty regardless of how you spin it.

I have no dog in this fight, but for comfortability, he seemed to lean towards the Jeep. But for overloading, the reason he chose the Defender over be Jeep was due to the fact that he Defender was setup to carry more fuel and gear, not necessarily room for people.

I am pleasantly surprised to find 1) a reviewer be as unbiased as this man was, and 2) see a relatively stock Wrangler perform so well. I did want the man to take into account price differential between the two trucks (if there is one in the UK).

After watching the video, I’m not sure the Defender does it more comfortably.

They want someone like Jesus as president? I guess they're all gonna vote Sanders then.

Those Tahoes... lowered and riding on the cop rims... they look so good.

I’m not so sure that they’re hard to distinguish. Chicago PD has tons of undercover “Explorers”. Their undercover problem: they’re always in some color that no civilian would ever buy (e.g., brownish-tan... who buys a brownish-tan explorer?), and the wheels are obvious cop-spec wheels.

Top Gear is certainly entertainment first and informational second, but there are grains of truth in what they say. By no means am I sticking up for GM, but unfortunately for their world-class engineers, GM’s corporate decision makers tend to have a collective IQ that rivals nothing more than a chipmunk... so this…

When Saab died, Top Gear did a bit about it and how it unfolded.

This made me want an Octavia vRS 230 estate again.

In what universe will you pay $65,000 for a new M3 or C63!?

I worked at a Ford dealer and someone traded in a B7 S4 and I got to take it home one night. For what it was supposed to be, it didn’t handle well at all.

Lincoln has an engine that will blow anything Mazda has out of the water... that 400 hp TTV6.

You know who else is more mature, more upscale, more sophisticated nowadays? FORD and CHEVROLET! 15 years ago they were the automotive equivalent of an enormous cyst, but look at them now. Both Ford’s and Chevy’s offerings consist of advanced cars AND a shit ton of performance cars between the two of them.

If I wanted a sporty 2-series that actually looked attractive, I’d get the Dinan.

It bothers me that this looks so much like an S4. Will it handle like an S4, too? (Poorly.)
