on the other hand, if you’re credit is good and you aren’t particularly affected by the current pandemic, you can get financing on a 2019 corvette for 0% for 72 months. which is pretty kick ass. why the fuck would i buy a cheaper car if i can afford it? why does everyone assume in these weekly articles about car loans…

i mean to be fair ppl can also just not. Maybe buy a fucking elantra and not a f250. I am very sympathetic to the poor - ive been there myself. I bought used reliable transportation.

Not sure why I’m bothering to explain this but that’s because Harley Davidson, being a mainstream OEM manufacturer selling road-legal bikes in the US and around the world has to put items on their bike to make them follow things called regulations. Like fenders, emissions, turn signals, reflectors and waterproofing.

“Sure honey, I’ll sell that car I’ve had since high school to make room for your new family carrier in the garage. Let me just take some pictures and post the ad to the internet.”

Actually, you can get a GT500 for that price that’s 20 years newer.

I can get a 25 year newer 5.0 for that price.

Obligatory:

Being passionate about emitting heavy black smoke out of a tailpipe seems on par with being passionate about the look and smell of the shit coming out of one's ass.

Dickfaces like you are exactly why we can’t have nice things. Good riddance. A lifted diesel truck is not a performance vehicle. It is 100% for showing people what a tiny penis you have.

No 4 wheeler would run ever run a lift like that offroad. You’d be on your side in 10 seconds with that shit.

Ah yes, This is the article that broke the bending straw. Jalopnik used to feature cool and quirky cars that definitely didn’t meet emission standards, but not a single person cared about that. Jalopnik is no longer about automobiles, its about making fun of people who are passionate about automobiles and being…

My favorite is the “Don’t tread on me” sticker right next to the “Thin Blue Line” stickers.

As a die hard gear head that really only loves speed, I have come to accept other automotive enthusiasts tastes that I wouldn’t touch with a ten foot pole. Stance, huge body kits, giant cheap rims on hyper cars that FUCKING RUIN performance. Huge low profile tires on trucks with giant lift kits. All examples of things…

What you might be missing is that these clowns are in Utah where, due to our geography, we regularly have the most polluted air in the nation. Because of the winter inversions along the Wasatch front we have dozens of winter days where kids can’t play outside as the air is classified as dangerous to breathe. It’s not…

Recall this when some “Right To Repair” opponent says that preventing access to the schematics, part numbers, part purchases, and diagnostic tools and software would prevent this from happening.

I mean they also have a show on discovery where a bunch of hillbillies go in the woods to make “moonshine” and show them “selling” it without paying the tax man so....

I don’t disagree!

I hate to come down even 1% on the side of coal rollers, but let he who has never modified a vehicle cast the first stone here.

An engine that doesn’t require buying a $100k donor car could help save the ‘new’ Stratos though.

There seems to be a cadre of folks who blame Hillary for losing to Trump because she was a horrible candidate but blame everyone else in the world when Bernie loses an election.

Harley Davidson, the Kodak of motorcycles.
