I can see that you’re saying that Trump is a prick - so far so agree, but I’m finding it difficult to deduce the point you’re making in the rest of the article.

...which then reduces the potential resale market. Still too expensive, IMO

Looks a nice car, but absolute CP at that price. I’m typically jealous of how cheap US cars are compared to here in the UK/EU, but you can get a similar 2.5l ot 3.0l car over here for £5k / $7k.

The problem, of course, is that anyone who orders or makes one of these is clearly spoiling for a fight and will just use this as the catalyst to start one.

Never liked minis. Hated the original 60s and 70s variants, and hate even more the cynical “new” version that is as mini as an F150.

Fucking hell. I was reading the bio and thinking what a dirtbag, until the last sentence when I gasped out loud. What a total and utter shit - no wonder the legal profession gets such a bad press with failed-humans like this in it.

Hmmmm.... I think this is an unnecessarily salty article about a company that is clearly in severe distress.

Woah - the fast restart is worth the $500 alone!

Shit, yeah! I remember reading the stories on CNN in 2016 - one in particular sticks in my mind when it proclaimed that “it is a mathematical impossibility that Trump will win”.

First off, yes the couple are a pair of total twats for a whole host of reasons: Waving guns around, terrible dress sense, appalling decor taste, yep - all of that.

I have no use for keys, other than the one for the padlock on the bike shed.

Jesus fucking christ, get over yourself. It’s a comedy TV show - it’s not there to be a documentary, or to force us to be better people. It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia has characters who are truly horrible people but I don’t see you demanding that all bars be closed.

Come on, Erik, get off the fence and tell us what you really think. You reckon it’s gonna be a huge success, right, and we’ll all be able to just get in the back and let Ford drive us home drunk.

Jimnys are fantastic little motors. I used to be in an offroad club where most of us had Mitsubishi L200s (Tritons in Oz), which were ultra capable on all the muddy, slidy stuff, but the couple of guys who brought Jimnys could keep up with or beat us at pretty much every obstacle.

Spot on - I spent a merry 35 seconds proving what I already expected, and can now safely move on. It’s not that hard!

Is this the same Jalopnik that proclaimed the used car industry was dead a few weeks ago, especially with Hertz going bust?

Why has this story from February suddenly been given prime real-estate on the home page?

Totally unimpressed with Tesla autopilot.

That’s fabulous!

The car was impounded for a week and the 19 year old lost his licence for a week? In the UK (and much of Europe) you’d be looking at probably jail time, a massive fine and likely banned for two years.
