This deserves the full PJ O’Rourke quote.

Mazepin talks as he races: There's a ton of spin and then in the end he misses the point.

The story of a Jeep aficionado who travels from Michigan to Washington to rescue a derelict Jeep FC that all others had given up hope of ever seeing run again.

We’re on our own now in this pandemic and future pandemics. My advice is to always mask up on planes and trains. I won’t give a shit if I’m the only passenger doing it. I know what works. Masks were never a punishment. I feel awful that we let them feel like a punishment. Masks let us go out and live our lives while a

Please elaborate on a “full sized American”.

a modern nissan sentra weighs more than that. thats how heavy cars are these days.

First of all, every single one of these heavy EVs has every safety system already baked in because of the higher overall cost. They have emergency braking, collision avoidance and lane centering as standard. Thus, they are better at avoiding hitting other obstacles than the average vehicle around them.

imagine F1 drivers taking the budget airline routes that add 36 hours and two extra stopovers to your international trips

Cue the dumbass cryptbros: yOu JuSt DoN’t UnDeRsTaNd CrYpTo BrO tRuSt Me It’S bEtTeR tHaN rEaL mOnEy!!!! now give me some real money for my fake money!

F1 standards are much higher than those of the folks that camped out for Summer Jam

“Im not buying it new, let all the suckers take the depreciation hit, and I’ll buy it a few years later. My plan it fullproof!”

Funny thing is the demise of this car will not be by consumers but by Toyota dealerships. With shortages this thing will be a six figure car at some dealerships pushing the envelope and normal dealers asking $10k over sticker. Every cool car made in the last 6-7 years has had some sort of dealer markup with it being

Watkins Glen definitely could not handle the F1 crowd influx. I have friends who live in the area that regularly talk about the fact that the NASCAR crowd totally overflows the area (and that’s not even mentioning the team members that love the track but hate the area because finding accommodations can be impossible,

Appleton “International” Airport

F1 last raced in Watkins Glen in the 1980s, and circuit safety and entertainment standards have drastically evolved since then. There were even complaints in the final years WGI hosted the race that the circuit facilities and town accommodations weren't up to par

I would argue the counterpoint, manuals suck in almost all cases.  I get it for something like a track or auto cross car.  But do you really want a manual commuter car stuck in traffic constantly shifting up and down?  Flappy paddles are fine for a manual car, they are faster shifting and make driving much simpler. 

I really don’t understand why this is so much worse than so many of the cars we claim to love on here.

Jalopnik: We hate people with money, cars, trucks and EVs But we love brown stickshift wagons, reposting 7 year old posts and slideshows.

I really hate this thing, but I’d rather see a Hummer EV over a coal rolling F350 brodozer with a Carolina squat that has never hauled a thing in its life.

Any wheel where the number of spokes is not evenly divisible by the number of visible lugs.
