As a service advisor, I'll give a hard pass to any GM from the last few decades. 

A reservation puts you in line to make an order at a future date.

I have to imagine she’ll be one of the pale ones if she takes the pill.

The Tacoma is a dog ass terrible pickup, the cult following is just that- a cult. Gutless engine, bad transmission tuning, big time dive & squat from the suspension, cramped cabin, awful infotainment.... but at least they’re expensive.

I’d also like to throw all Teslas in the ring. In my experience, they drive just…

I’ve always wanted to drive a healthy example, I was looking at them before I found my current 8th gen civic Si. 

Long Live the 4th Gen

Might they be...street youths?

I feel like these will be huge in Austin. Popular with centrist millennials that left big cities during COVID, and now need a truck (because Texas) but are no way are going to be seen in a giant bro-dozer.

Ford sold me with hybrid.

You won’t find one for  45k. Now a Focus SVT .....

“I am annoyed that even a global pandemic has not ended the dealership model entirely.”

I think most people have had a fine (or OK at least) experience when purchasing a car from the dealership. Of course, not anyone on Jalopnik ever! I also think most people want that personal interaction with a real live human. 99% of car buyers aren’t “car people.” They want someone to sit with them and explain…

I too have my Bronco build printed on my desk but in my case it’s to push harder and make more money (am in sales). Gotta afford that BD 2.7 Sasquatch. 

Where have all the people that love cars on Jalopnik gone? Every comment section seems to keep harking back to judgement about how other people spend their money or finance their cars. I am sick of the “If you lease a car that’s stupid. I lived in my mother’s basement eating baked beans for 20 years so I can afford…

10 grand on Autotrader in San Diego, 2005 with <80k miles, plenty of room for a big dog, not boring:

A note about Ford and a commentary about people in the comments section:
Ford will be debuting the Maverick small pickup for the 2022 model year. About half of the comments section swears they want a small pickup with a puny engine. Soon comes their chance to put their money where their keyboard is.

The IIHS should also add vehicles to this list which do not have an automated headlights on feature. Following a car with no tail-lights is troubling, especially on unlit roadways. Cannot count how many times I’ve driven behind someone who thinks their headlights are on because the DRL’s are illuminating the road…

The Detail Geek is another satisfying channel. He’s not quite as intense or meticulous as Larry but follows the same routine almost every time and does a very thorough job.  Especially on the interior.
