“This is America; you can have all-wheel-drive AND winter tires.”

Come on folks, it was all just a big yoke. They’re sorry for steering people in the wrong direction. 

Which is really just a branded golf ball in a different package.

Tesla-branded panel gap alignment gauge was a close second.

Do you prefer the EVs over the PHEV? I’m still thinking that PHEVs are really the best compromise for most people currently, but I’d like to hear from someone who’s actually using both kinds.

That’s tall money for a very ham-handed unsatisfying model that loses all the grace of the real car for the mere sake of being made out of Legos. I don’t get the attraction in the least. If they can make custom tires and headlights, why not just do the entire car in pleasing shapes the capture the grace of the real…

I prefer the smaller kits. They tend to better capture the essence of a vehicle.

Yeah, I have never been a fan of these lego car models, they all look like that to me. Cars are curvy and legos are not.

Instead of electrifying the car, put copper skids on the bottom and electrify the road, like an AFX track, dummy!

When I was a kid it was unusual and noteworthy for a car to reach 100,000 miles. So it’s only been 20-30 years that has become an expectation.

I know it’s a Jalopnik cliche, but for me personally, it’s a wagon. I don’t like driving SUVs or trucks, but I need cargo space.

Why does LA do anything? You can’t apply logic to LA, it is LA baby. Shit just happens here.

What an interesting question.

Color trending is a thing. Most manufacturers aren’t establishing the trends, rather they’re responding to research and sentiment. Pantone, among other firms conduct research that has a predictive view on color.

Or better still:

If space efficiency were what people were after, they’d buy Minivans.

The full-sized truck and suv craze are rooted in other phenomenon.

What does space-efficiency matter when most of that space is unoccupied most of the time? Also, all of these SUVs lose that battle compared to minivans anyway.

A Toyota Sienna gets over 30 mpg and has just as much interior room as the largest SUVs. It’s also half the price.

The reasons people actually buy these…

Pick a lane guys.

Looks like I’ll be adding this to the watchlist, but upvoting in advance. If they’ve pissed off the truckbros, they must be doing/saying something right.

Unfortunately, we as a country have spent a long long time railing on this idea that freedom means “I get to do what I want as long as what I specifically do does not directly harm others.”

Also really, really tired of people saying car choice is a “personal” choice. No, no it’s not; obviously, you can hurt other people with these things, and of course, they make climate change worse, literally worsening the future prospects of every other person on the planet. There is ZERO justification for not thinking…
