That must have required a lot of overnight parts from Japan.

Why fuck me? I’m honestly curious.

This kind of thinking is what makes me hate the products of higher education. People will go to college, probably go for a degree that has no real world value, make very little, and then bitch about the guys who went out there and did something that has tangible results and they can take pride in. Like seriously, when…

Am I the only one that feels semi-skill labor jobs shouldn’t pay too much? Why do people feel they are entitled to a 1/4 acre single family home with a high school diploma?

So another Socialist with limited knowledge of cars … fun.

He joined Jalopnik and his first article was to praise the end of cars in NYC, wow, balsy.

Here we are, 2019. When our car enthusiast sites are pretty excited about the near ban of cars in a city. 

Only an idiot wastes their money on a safe, reliable modern crossover in the $25-35,000 range for their wife and kids.

Always read the fine print.

More infuriating is when dealers list vehicles as having a manual transmission, but it’s an auto-manual (paddle shifters).

Pause sure, but clearly didn’t look well enough.  Again, all fault to the truck, but how do you miss that tractor?

I did some math.

I once saw a guy in a BMW use his turn signal. Hand to god! 

Don’t buy anything.  Swap cars with your wife.  Problem solved.  Next, please.

Nope.  She got a taste of gas one day and switched, if you get my drift.

Owning a diesel car in America is definitely an unusual experience. Besides panicked gas station attendants running towards me yelling “No, miss! That pump is diesel!” and me saying “No shit, idiot,” I am most often asked if I’m worried about starting my diesel in the cold.

Having worked retail, I’ll defend the attendants behavior. I’d bet good money that the vast majority of people (with cars, not trucks) they see going for the diesel pump are wrong. And since most of them are wrong, it’s just easier to assume everyone is.

Only 5% of buyers want wagons - kill the wagon

For now, I would suggest a lightly used Panther car, probably a Grand Marquis. You can get a like-new 2005-2011 MGM with less than 50k miles on it for around $5k-$6k, maybe less. There are plenty of them around (old people bought them new, hardly drove them, and they end up at estate sales). They’re dead cheap to…
