Cops should have skin in the game. When a cop does a typically cop cruel and moronic thing like this, the cop should have their pay garnished FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIFE and if the crime warrants it, LOSE THEIR HOUSE TOO. Then the taxpayers step in for the balance owed.
Cops don’t learn. And taxpayers assuredly don’t…
How hard would it be to convert this 5-speed manual XJ Cherokee to 4x4? It’s rather fetching, if not sexy ...
Haven’t we already seen this before ... in a TV show somewhere? Or am I imagining this?
Most of your concerns over Torchinsky’s proposal are contradicted by Nissan’s superb reconditioning of four decade old Datsun 240Z’s. I remember seeing one in a dealer showroom and was blown away by it. If any modern manufacturer were to give this a shot - and Mercedes already sort of does - I’d be all for it.
Are those Minator wheels? I haven’t seen a set of those on anything other than old Triumphs, MGB’s and Minis. Always been a fan too.
I blame Garrick, a prototypical 4th gen owner and former coworker of mine. Pimply, fat, nerdy, big ego and zero mojo, he didn’t tell me on a lunch run that his brake pads were ALL down to their liners. He tried to pace friends that we were following as they zipped through a yellow light a good hundred yards ahead of…
“Cosmetically similar to a genuine assault rifle” - incorrect. It’s 100% the same rifle, only without the selector for three round bursts or fully auto. Their best use is for micropenis blowhards who want to play soldier. Or murder children at a playground. Or shoot immigrants as that’s where these weapons always wind…
Very nicely explicated. I’ve owned a couple Triumph Spitfires, one of the simplest conveyances ever made. One of those assembled today on a modern robot assembly line at large scale would probably retail for $5k and wouldn’t meet any safety regs other than three point seat belts and a steering column that crumples.
Funn…
*LOVE* that film. “Something big between my legs” could be the perfect rejoinder.
Bend over, I’ll drive.
Step 1: place dirty fingernail’ed digit in front of plate...
A close friend is an English teacher at a local high school. He’s convinced that ebonics (yes, that’s still a thing) can be equivalent if not superior to a wide vocabulary despite offering a dearth of words to express oneself with. Yes this is an argument we have, no I’m not making this up, yes it results in much…
My degree in journalism is a license to wreck trains, thanks.
Not germane to an automotive blog, but as a lifelong record collector I have noticed a trend lately to refer to multiple LP records as “vinyls”. The nuance is missed, where multiple LPs are called “records” and one collects “vinyl”. So the plural of vinyl is records. Yet I’m seeing more and more something like this:…
Hear here, agreed and seconded.
I have written a couple articles for The Truth About Cars as they’re a couple steps up in IQ from their commentariat than here. Curbsideclassic is perhaps the best with Hooniverse close for people abstaining from troll-like behavior.
The final straw that limited my reading of Jalopnik was when my K20 swapped Insight…
Today’s alternative: under 2500 lbs, tunable to 200hp with just an ECM, tossable w/ go-kart attributes, cheap when second hand AND excellent safety ratings:
Like the knucklehead that got butthurt at me in the comments for stating the C4 Corvette debuted with a digital dash, then went analog in 1989-90. I literally have a ‘90 in my driveway so I’d know, but NOO00oooooo he demanded I take a picture of my car and post it.
