during a test drive.

Why not both?

An acquaintance of mine came into to a lot of money when his employer was sold. However this was unvested stock which only had paper value. He immediately cashed in his 401k, bought an expensive car, divorced his wife, and started spending his evenings in strip clubs.

They’ll all be stolen soon, don’t worry. 

It’s painfully obvious how Trump won a second time.

Yep. Peasant MURICA in action. I watched You-Trash-Tube and Im an expert seems to be the norm for most folks who barely finished high school and think a Christian Centered nation is the answer. 

100% agree. There need to be special endorsements for both vehicle weight and power. And I wholeheartedly believe that everyone who is licensed, no matter the vehicle, needs to take a course like Tire Rack Street Survival.

Exactly.

What about retirees hopping into a 60,000lb RV coach with zero training?

There is a big difference between towing something that is free to move other than wind and rolling resistance and yanking something that is stuck out of the mud.

It’s almost like they kind of wanted to make a Jeep Gladiator, but they ordered it from Wish.com

The fact that it happens on a commercially produced vehicle, and one that costs six figures, is going to become the new norm I think. As companies continue to enshittify their products, especially "normal" cars, and the dollar/euro/pound/bottle cap continues to lose value, it’s only a matter of time before they cross…

You must have avoided Chrysler and Dodge like the plague! But think about it, all you have to do is wait 50 years and all those cars become classics, lose bolts and all!

What do you do with an elephant with 3 balls?

I CAN SEE MY HOUSE FROM HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERE

Oh Dear!

My wife still has her Mitsubishi Mirage she bought 11 years ago. Never had we have to tighten the door hinge bolt or have trim pieces falling off. The car Jalopnik loves to hate has a better build quality than an incEl Camino.

I didn’t have to mess with the hinges even on the car where I had to open the door at 80mph to get the window to seal after it was down. Mind I had to set the timing belt in a parking lot multiple times that car was such a pile.

Truth.

The car did alert after hitting the deer, it just alerted RFK, Jr. to come pick up the carcass and dispose of it in Central Park. That’s the new protocol.
