If I can’t get a Suzuki Jimny, what even was the point of destroying the American experiment?

Non-Jalop answer: I would love to see a unification of safety codes between the EU, Japan, Korea and the US. This way, if Toyota makes too many Kei vehicles for their market, they can export some to America cheaply and sell them here. It would allow for enthusiasts to special order stuff like Alpines or the like and…

Honestly, it just looks like a terrible body kit. The front fenders and grill are knock-offs, but the rest doesn’t match at all.

I’m all for shitting on Tesla any day of the week, but this is a non-issue. Light bars ARE illegal for on-road use. No OEM even offers them. Off-road focused vehicles do come with the auxiliary switches for them, but the purchase and installation is up to the owner. 

I was gonna say, aren’t crimp/butt connectors more prone to failing than a good soldering?

Chevy used to sell KC Hilites with covers on them saying they are to remain covered for on-road.

Can’t say I’ve ever had one of my own solder joints in an automotive application fail. Maybe people just don’t do it right?

Well played, sir. Well played.

2nd gen Buick Regal, hmmm..

Depends on who you think they were serving. I’m guessing it’s the rest of the citizenry who has to deal with Hill’s reckless driving. Also, remember Hill was involved in an assault at a marina last year.

And all Hill had to do was leave his heavily tinted window rolled down.  Basically we had a meeting of the assholes here.

When Ford adopts DEI policies, it’s about making more money. When they abandon DEI policies, it’s about making more money. They don’t care either way, they just want to maximize shareholder value. This should not surprise anyone.

I typed a similar comment and then deleted it. HD is in the business of making money, that’s it. They’re no different than any other major brand.  HD doesn’t care about DEI any more than Bud Light did.  They care about money.  That’s it.  Money.

Or go east 38 miles into AZ & pay about $3/gal.

An acquaintance recently did the “It’s cheaper to fly four people to Paris, stay in a hotel for a week, see Taylor Swift, and go shopping at Louis Vuitton” vacation than buy four tickets in the US.

Google maps shows 58 miles west is Ludlow with another Chevron that, according to reviews dated yesterday, have regular selling at $4.80. And Ludlow even has a Dairy Queen.

It’s nice to see only a $0.20/gal premium for premium, versus a $1.20/gal premium though.

“Or if you don’t mind paying nearly $5 more than California’s average gas price, pull in and knock yourself out.”

Supply and demand, baby. Same price structure on cruise ships and movie theaters. And in defense of the gas station, a little pre-planning with fueling up before driving into the desert and traveling with plenty of water is simple common sense.
