Agreed. Driving is a PRIVILEGE, not a Right, nor a Necessity. I've always been a proponent for mandatory driver re-education every 3 to 5 years between 16 and 60, every 2 years between 61 and 70, and annually for anyone 70+. As we age, our reaction times slow and our eye sight fails....along with every other sense.

I think more companies should employ a spiritual adviser. The problem these days is that everyone is so scared about the consequences of not conforming to the PC police, that any company wanting to do so would have to either employ an adviser of each faith (at great cost) or find that one adviser who just happens to

Isn't that a Rolls Royce Ghost sitting in white to the far right? I saw a college-aged kid downtown Austin the other evening after work, he was rocking a new R8 GT, so I'm not surprised by the youngin' with another exotic.

Needless to say, this a Nice Price and not a Crack Pipe. It's actually a $30k steal, though the $70k+ Vanagon's are probably all original, I'd prefer the Soob-6 over the original Flat-4, so $48k might be a bit high, but it's near target for sure. Wow. Who'd have thunk it?

Virgin, Southwest, and JetBlu are by far the best I've flown on (in that order), and I fly nationally 6-10 times a year. The big guys (Delta, AA, United) just don't seem to give a shit about the problems their scheduling, delays, lost bags, etc, cause their customers. No wonder these guys have a revolving door of

THIS is beyond EPIC. Holy shit! What's the back-story on this one?

The car couldn't have been vandalized in a tackier way than plastering it with gold paint. What a shit driver...I can't wait for the "film." LOL.

Holy garbage-in-a-hairnet, that's despicable. I honestly prefer the cars look and lines in full camouflage in the Gran Tursimo 5 release to this rendering. Could they have shoved a Camaro further up it's ass?

...maybe. The gear shift [URL=http://jalopnik.com/5970994/2014-mercedes+benz-cla-this-is-it/gallery/1]HERE[/URL] doesn't appear to have the Automatic's simple Merc symbol on it. Could be a 6-speed. Anyone?

Ferrari's to pretentious to make this humble list.

Which does 'corporate' best? Five weeks annual leave plus holidays, company provided health and life insurance, corporate share program, discounted leases on products, paid maternity AND paternity leave, onsite fitness center, all housed in the most immaculate, spectacular, and beautiful building geared towards

The guy definitely did not survive the journey in the landing gear area of a Boeing. That area of the plane is not pressurized, nor heated, and at 30,000+ feet he would have froze and/or suffocated. What a grizzly way to go.

"Sweet Mazda"...no one will say. Benz has taken a turn for the worse with almost all of their cars lately.

Your license should be confiscated upon uttering the words "What's the best deal you can give me on a Mini-Van."

Does it have anything to do with Tata [obscure Indian car company who bought Jag from Ford] having plans to unleash their own ultra-light super-car?

Afterthought: In a real SHTF scenario; I just realized we could be forced to drive Chinese cars. How's that make you feel?

Just another piece of trash they'll inevitably throw into the Yangtze.

When Porsche allowed this abomination to the brand waddle out the back gate. They should have had their production line play on a soap covered trampoline above a stair case to rid themselves of this growth before it reached maturity.

Someone PLEASE overlay that footage with the smooth comforting sounds of an internal combustion engine!

Hahaha! This explains why nothing good has ever come out of New Zealand.
