I just seems like every few weeks there is a day where Jalopnik decides everything is now redirecting to the Root. I just give up on the site for that day and usually by the next day it is fine.

It was really bad like week a go. Now it’s been a bit better, but still. Interesting that this site is so dead set on making it unreadable. Either by shitti half-screen-fillin-adds or these redirections.

If this had a V-6, it would be on a BHPH lot for $4999. Is the engine worth $10k? No.

I love this. But I’d rather keep $15k in my pocket. I’d go $10k. 

Buick Electra, if they ever do it.

I declare that there cannot be a more aptly named EV vehicle than a Charger.  Fight me.

Two things:
