It’s not that difficult to pay attention while driving. Manuals do not increase attentiveness while driving. You pay more attention to rpms, but no way driving a manual makes you focus more on that pot hole or the guy drifting in your lane. You don’t need a manual to observe with your eyes.

stoppedPerfectly describes him. I played for him while he coached at OSU. I was injured , he tried to take my scholarship away. Had to medical release my self. Even though he knew I was injured and my career over half way through the season, I was continually berated in practice. Then one day I was fed up and had a…

Miata. Isn't that always the answer ?

Did you run outta ideas for an article lately? This sounds like it was pieced together to meet your deadline and meet your faux outrage quota. I mean sometimes Jalopnik is the shining beacon in Gawker mediocrity and click baiting. Then you guys go and pull this shit out of your assess. GEEEEEEZZZZZZZZZ

This is a hookup gone bad. The hookup still happens. This is not a story. There are much better things to report on then trying to figure out the science of college athletes getting free shit. You never admit to getting free stuff while playing. Duh. Come on cuh. And yes I’ll admit I gave free stuff to a player…

Wait wait wait. That’s in my town? Must convince wife to let me buy. Naw. Won’t happen. Only can wish!

I’ve spent way too time and cash(lol jk) at the strip. Cricket’s known for it’s “limey” drink. Basically sprite rum, vodka and some other stuff. Geta you real fucked up quick. Most people just went for the limey and then went to dirty’s or Murphys. Night life is that strip or a house party. Pretty much all there is in…

Isnt that pretty much anything in Canada above 15° longitudinal(or lattitudinal?)?

I'm pro business, but that guy's way of thinking is madness. I bet he works for a dealer of some sort. How could you agree with having the customer pay for your mistake!?!

Hopefully they can keep Bell Isle pristine. It is truly a scenic location. I only wish I went to the indy event before I left Detroit. However I did take quite a few laps!

If the dealership model was sonething that actually benefited the customer, there wouldn't be so much vitriol. The fact that it was the dealer's fault, then tried to basically screw the customer is beyond incredulous. Behavior like that is why there is so much hate for the dealership model in this country. Granted you…

This isn'tnt going anywhere. You clearly can't comprehend liability. 1. The "tech" is supposed to drive the car to reproduce the issue. 2. The car should not have been driven to the service rep's class. 3. The reps less than stellar driving record is clearly an issue as well. I know anyone can have a hard time…

The serivce desk attendant, not even a tech, wrecked a car in their possesion. Even if there is a scratch that was on the car that happened in their care, they need to fix it. 1. It's the law(more than likely), 2. They are liable, 3. The dealer has or should have insurance. They don't sell the stuff to just sell…

Bruh you cant be serious. The dealership is liable. Even ethically, why should the customer, who is not liable, be forced to pay for the error of the dealer who is liable? It's just not right, ethically speaking.

There are laws on the books about responsibility. Technically the vehicle is under the care of the dealership. His premiums should not rise because of an accident of the dealer. It's more "a deductible". The owner will have to pay over about 5-7 years increased premiums, and other penalties. The dealer has full…

I recently had the opportunity to track an sls. It was amazing. It was a little tail happy but that was due to rain. It was pretty awesome around the track. But with that much horsepower, gunning it too early out of a turn will cause almost any rwd car to lose its tail.

Doesn't fit any thing in the Hyundia/Kia stables.

I saw one the other day. Sitting in a quiktrip parking spot. Idling. Good God did it sound amazing. Totally made me want one. Wife was like, "why is that impala so loud?"

It's a depreciating asset.

By this logic, I'm not sure anything would exist if it is never used to it's fullest potential... High end anything would be stupid. If you're single anything with more than 1 seat is stupid. Anything with high stats is stupid, how many people track their high spec camaro or Corvette? How many people use their trucks…
