That’s the most expensive vending machine I’ve ever seen.

And the payout will come from the city budget, not the police budget. So there will be no incentive whatsoever to do better in the future. Hooray.

So private equity swoops in to drain yet another industry of any value leaving a burned out husk in its wake. If only we something along the lines of the richest, most powerful nation the world has ever known to step in and regulate this kind of thing.

Is there no problem Tesla can’t unsolve?

Yeah, my 2014 Jetta had super light steering as well. Can’t say I much cared for it. My current car offers actual resistance and, y’know, feedback to the wheel.

Remember when the Eclipse was Mitsubishi’s sports car that people bought because it’s fast? Now it’s boring crossover on a slowest cars list.

I’m really happy this didn’t turn into a “Marc Summers was sus” article.

Holy butts, they’ve paid nearly $30k into that pickup and only shaved $4-6k off the principle. That’s wild. If they’d spent the last 18 months setting aside that $1,600 to use as a down payment, they’d be financing less than $50k. It’s too bad the only vehicles powerful enough to haul their insecurities cost about…

I didn’t sign up for this shit

Are you telling us that you negotiated a 10% pay increase on the strength of your 500% productivity increase?

Joke’s on them, my car’s infotainment tech stops at Bluetooth.

Looking forward to one of the “Big 3" to release an honest to god small car or truck (probably just a slightly repurposed asian car) but give it ugly styling, impossibly anemic performance, seats repurposed from middle school desks, and Bluetooth audio will be an upgrade feature. Then point to the lack of sales and…

The Silhouette was the Cadillac of minivans.

Re: touch screens, I think a manufacturer or two will release sacrificial models for a year or two sans touch screen, think Sentras and Corrollas or some new model that looks more or less like a Chevy Bolt. Basically, something nobody would “want” so much as “end up with.” It will fail to move real number and all the…

I wonder if younger generations of auto buyers will start showing preference for smaller vehicles, especially since they’re becoming rarer on the road and more unique. I mean like, 90s era Civics and Sentras small, not modern Altimas that are twice as big as their predecessors.

I remember in the 90s, when SUVs were becoming more popular and there was a near endless stream of articles pointing out how they were n times more likely to roll over in a collision (or just because) and yet every suburbanite justified theirs with “it’s just so much safer” and I was like “but it’s demonstrably not”…

Cop does something awful and then acts like a cop about it.

Sure, take my phone. Here’s the password. I’ll meet up with you soon! 🔫🤠

when has anyone other than the Guardian called a truck an SUV?

This was a huge problem for me when I drove an xB that had lackluster acceleration. I’d get stuck behind some slowpoke going down the onramp at 40 and then I’d have to gun it in a desperate attempt to not die.
