The experience of reading this article on this site reinforces the decision. The design of this site (perfection - literally interrupted typing at this moment by a full-screen popup ad) is hostile to the act of consuming the content I’m here to see.  I’m patently shocked the article was allowed to be posted here.

I think you hit the nail on the head with the efficiency aspect of it. If you’re going to have a garage (attached or otherwise), then there’s a strip of your property from the street to the garage door (the driveway) that’s otherwise wasted space. Putting the garage door close to the street means more of the lot can…

Gnome Chompski is from Episode 2, so we'll have to wait a little longer for that incarnation of the little scamp. 

I think dry turning is one thing when leaving a parallel parking spot - often necessary if the car in front is close.

Jason and David write the dumbest, most useless articles on Jalopnik, and I’m going to miss that.

At least with the quarter panels you can’t see both of them at the same time (right?).

This comment is almost too much to bear.

Subaru ain’t half bad:

How much is a decent-looking car cover for a Jeep Grand Cherokee? Toss that on there and suddenly it’s not a carcass, but a nice car you just can’t fit in the garage and don’t want exposed to the elements. (Don’t want it to rust, heaven forbid!)

You are correct - we have a 2017 Outback with Adaptive Cruise and Lane Diverge Correction.

Truck Nutz is so obvious I’m surprised it wasn’t in the prompt.

My suggestion was the 3,000-mile oil change interval. I guess that could fall under the “Reliability, Reliability, Reliability” entry.

The 3,000-mile oil change interval.

Built-in navigation. The maps are so infrequently updated (and often expensive to update) that they were often missing entire neighborhoods, and it seemed they’d never have the destinations we’d try to search for. Touchscreen controls were frequently finicky and voice control was hit-or-miss at best. Perhaps they…

If you ask me (and thanks for that, by the way), a common misconception is that people are going to own electric cars. Currently, if you don’t have a garage, they don’t make sense. Maybe faster charging will ameliorate that concern somewhat, but the solution and future seems clear to me:

The people on the grass are incidental, the occupants of the car are presently occupied in the back seat.

To me, it seems less “angry” and more “frustrated”, like someone just said something incredibly ignorant and it’s taking a moment for a slow deep breath.

I am going to pretend that the “angry eyes” headlights direct light downward onto the road ahead instead of upward into the eyes and rearview mirrors of other drivers. So they’re a courtesy thing, really. With this mindset, the world feels like a friendlier place, and I’m going to live in that world for now.

The part is an Oil Filter. The person who tightened it is the Ol’ Fitler.

I think “tractor-trailer” is a combination term. The “tractor” pulls the trailer. I’m no linguist and I’m not even going to take the minute it would take for me to Google it, but I suspect that terminology comes from before there were dedicated trucks that would pull trailers, and they’d be pulled behind a tractor.
