Sweden sending 5000 anti-tank missiles to Ukraine seems like a good sign.

it looks like it is, between the Ukraine holding them back when most expectations were that Ukraine would have been taken over at this point combined with the majority of the world not only calling calling them out for it but also backing it up with extreme sanctions (Even Switzerland “the land of Neutrality” has…

Mercedes definitely is the most jalop writer because she spent years being an actual jalop (along with writing talent of course)

Correct.

Pretty much.

NPND is my only remaining bookmark for this site.  I enjoy Mercedes writing.  I don’t enjoy the clickbait slideshows which seem to go with her work.  She and Tom are all that remains on the site after NPND.  It’s not enough for me.  I got moved to the greys with a new computer and a new account.  The stupid grey…

Yeah this site has gone to absolute shit. But in Rory’s words, we should “grow up” about it (by which I assume he means not endorsing the business he appears to be running into the ground more).

Its 9am Eastern on a Monday after a weekend full of automotive & world news and the Jalopnik front page has... a few puff pieces, recycled stuff from last 3 weeks ago and a NPOND post?

This is more or less exactly what I came down here to say (not that I’ll ever get out of the grays anyway). That’s far too much coin for a GM automobile of that vintage, irrespective of condition (which is actually good in this case) or mileage (which is reasonable given age, but not price).

He’s showing how much you can carry in the back! Like a folded-up blanket topped with a foil-wrapped sub/hoagie/grinder/hero (trying to be inclusive here).

Oh my, a 4 speed auto in 2007? Lame! I’m guessing you couldn’t get one with a stick, but oh well.

Lukewarm price with those miles. Maybe $14500 is where it should be.

I know these are probably reasonably fun in a straight line, but $17k for a Trailblazer is just a lot.

Cool truck but not $17k cool

It was ND even before I saw the photo of the back end with all of the crap piled up in a corner. What kind of dumbass doesn’t exert himself for 20 seconds to take it out before shooting a photo?

Maybe he should take a cue from all the brave Russians protesting this war. 

“Everything’s awful, I used my position to drive the best car ever built, but won’t tell you about it, also I’m going to go work in car auctions, something my writers make fun of, bye!”

But try to remember that for reasons that might not be apparent to you, things change. Things break.

I know that felt like a blow to a lot of readers.
