Gawd its awful now. It’s like the designers were told the vehicle needed a refresh and nobody had any ideas. Can we please just revert the nose to this?:

This is a very good question. How easy/hard is it to find a bent jeweler/watchmaker?

There is hardly a more practical car in existence. It’s so goddamn boring that it circled the earth and came back around to being interesting and amazing.

I too lost my innocence in the back of a big American wagon, mine was a ‘76 Ford Country Squire. Fold that back seat down and you had a huge playground. Also once got freaky in the back seat of an ‘80 Chevy Impala 2-door coupe. 

Damn I got a Random Jalopnik feature!! Last time I was featured here 🤌🏼

“We’ve been trying to reach you about your car’s extended warranty.”

This story brought back memories of a great Tim Roth film, “The Legend of 1900". Roth plays a man who was born below decks on a cruise ship of its time, raised onboard and became a world class pianist on the ship. Spent his entire life on the ship.

I’d take it. Troubleshoot it for a few months, if no bueno, there’s an LS I can dig up that I know won’t misfire.

Proceed with doughnuts 

Hopefully it will be restored.

Well thank God the Government is holding car dealerships accountable!

Reason 7,854 that dealerships need to be shot into the sun.

I mean, you push the button a single time to disable the auto-start/stop. It defaults to enabled every time you start the vehicle, but there is probably a way to alter that if it really bothers you. It’s only occassionally (usually in colder weather) that the car shudders a bit when the engine restarts.

The entire incident happened only because officers chased him. 

One, two, three...

Train now, or “Train!!!” later.

Frankly, a LSD, skids plates and a bit more ground clearance is all most people need to get a bit more outdoorsy. The target market for the “overlanding look” is people who want to drive on some dirt roads and camp off the grid...... No one buying a timberline is taking it to MOAB and running rock crawling trails.

Not wearing a seat belt in that hypothetical would still be 100% stupid, though, since there’s an absolutely miniscule chance of coming to harm because you put it on, just like there’s an absolutely miniscule chance of coming to harm because you got vaccinated.
