I agree. And it’s why I won’t buy a Jeep. I want one. But where I live, there’s nowhere good to go off-roading. And I need another expensive hobby like I need a hole in the head. And a Jeep is noisy and rough riding and impractical and not fast... so why would I buy one? Because the doors come off!!!! AAAAgh but I’d…

Maybe you need new friends?

As someone who DOES use his truck to full capacity and beyond, and also daily drives it because his project cars are all old and broken... the problem is, people just think I’m a dick for driving a truck when it’s empty. But it makes no sense for me to buy another car to daily. I can buy a lot of gas for what would be…

I have a truck, a Trans Am, a c3 corvette.

the worst part about towing? Obeying speed limits, or even slower.

oh trust me, I know.

yeah.... I call them 1500's and 2500's now because the newish “half ton” Sierra I was looking at can put 1980 pounds of stuff in the box... that’s a “one ton.”

um, yes, I did.

But wait... wasn’t this the guy driving? If so, if I was Hart, I’d be suing him right back for every penny and then some, because he totalled my car, injuring me in the process, and then I was sued over the damage to the other person.

God may want the motor in front, but Zora wanted it behind the driver, since at least 1959.

This is the kind of weird and wonderful stuff that Jalopnik does best.

Just in case the joking tone wasn’t obvious, 300mph from a street car is damn fast. I’ve only ever driven at half that speed and that was on a track. The thought that a 150mph street car is only HALF the speed of the fastest cars is mind blowing to someone who started driving when cars could barely crack 100 mph.…

I’d wager that in a year, a Top Fuel car is
a) driven more
b) driven faster on average
c) maybe, just maybe, driven further than your average Chiron

The article doesn’t say for how long they ran at 300+, so I’m free to assume it’s not very far.

After lining up the trailer ball in my 2010 Sierra, I do the following process to prevent the truck from moving: Put truck in Park, engage park brake with left foot, take right foot of brake pedal.

Thanks!

They should have also done that hideous grille.

AEB saved you “from a pretty vicious rear-ending in the Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel”?

$850 for tire rotation and fluids changes? OMG now I remember why I do all my own work. I could never afford to be a car addict at those prices.
