He for sure has been at time polarizing. But part of the reason why so many like him is because of that ‘pulls no punches’ attitude. Right or wrong, you know you’re getting 100% Robin Miller. And in recent years, he’s come into his own. Even doing pit reporting for IndyCar races and a damn good job at that.

I'm not sure what to think about Post Malone. I do not enjoy his music and he looks like a damn idiot but the stuff I see about him personally makes it seem like he might be OK. Doesn't seem to act like the wild moron his appearance and lyrics would suggest and he's a fan of some really good musicians. Somehow that

Miller is a journalistic shock-jock; he’s the Howard Stern of racing coverage.  His whole design is to have the reader following him, wondering what he’s going to come out and say next.  Like Stern, a lot of what came out of his mouth was happy horse shit, but a lot of it was meaningful, important, and often prescient

Loved him as a pseudo-correspondent for Wind Tunnel with Dave Despain. Unfortunately, any commentator who unabashedly calls out sports sanctioning bodies on their bullshit, in favor of the individuals competing within said sport, will always have a rocky career.

A lot of times you only have a narrow walk way to get to your backyard. In San Francisco for example, most backyards are only accessible through the garage backdoor. So anything that cannot fit through the door cannot get through to the backyard.

“If you have a hammer, every problem becomes a nail.”

Even if I lived in a high rise apartment I would get one.

There is no problem I cannot solve/create if I had one of these.

Not much more effective than a plain old shovel but damn would I still want one if had more yard.

My local Dodge dealership is in the same boat, they have three new Rams on the lot, one Jeep Compass, and a Journey. They have about a dozen cars left on their used lot. 

Exactly.  My local Chevy dealer has so few cars on the lot I briefly wondered if they had gone out of business!

As when this has happened before, I just assume it’s because Kinja is broken, not because they’re going away from slideshows.

Not...a....slideshow???

Gasoline doesn’t experience thermal runaway.

This represents 4% of the entire Plaid line (1/25). If 4% of say, the 2020 Toyota Camry, caught on fire, that’d be 12,000 cars.  I think Jalopnik would probably run an article about that too.

We sold a bunch to elderly customers and a bunch of them came in griping that they got speeding tickets with them or found themselves solidly over the speed limit frequently.”

Trust me, if a brand-new, high-profile combustion car just caught on fire like this, we’d write about that, too

I got one as a rental once up in Madison.. shit it was pretty quick and looked jsut like a black rental/fleet vehicle.

How many of them are new, $100,000+ vehicles? A few Ferraris burn, which are covered here, but you want them to write an article every time a ‘02 Buick catches fire? Plus, there’s a difference between a gas fire and lithium battery fire.

I’m mildly intrigued by this 2012-13 Impala action. That’s a heck of a sleeper.
