They might not care about the cars, but they care about money... it’s way cheaper to have cars for sale than to have all of your cars scrapped, have nothing to sell while waiting for new cars, and also go through all the time and paperwork for the insurance company...

Conversely, I think it’s what Toyota should’ve done with the heritage 4Runner - they didn’t go far enough.

You can get insurance for almost anything, its just a question of what your coverage looks like, and what your premiums are.

You have enough money to buy any vehicle you want.... and you chose this... Wow. Guess money doesn’t buy good taste.

I’d guess it’s easier to keep a bit of salty spray away from the battery, as opposed to when it’s completely submerged in saltwater.

First rule of oceanography is: no steel is stainless.

While that is true, people need to remember that pretty much every possible open body of water is conductive(and corrosive):

I paid MSRP on a fully loaded sedan recently and it didn’t even hit 45k, and I said to myself, there’s no way I’d be comfortable in a car more expensive than this. I’d also ask what the hell people are buying, but I already see all the denalis struggling to back out of Costco stalls around here. And the other pavement…

I have a 120 gallon saltwater fish tank in my house.

I know this article mostly talks about the conductivity of saltwater, but the other thing that needs talked about is that saltwater corrodes EVERYTHING. It’s nuts. You think, “oh, this is stainless, it’s fine”. Nooooope. It’s not.  Nothing is safe.  

If I lived by the…

I think you’re right. Ford was just a few years later before blobbing the F150. I knew it was mid-90s that trucks become bland bubbles followed by the modern trend to make the grill as tall as a bus.

As someone who thinks the cops are douchy, out-of-control fuckwads most of the time... what the fuck is this bullshit article. She hit a cop car. She got a ticket. Seems pretty fucking straightforward to me. Don't wanna get a careless driving ticket? Don't run into someone else's car. And WTF is this "I don't think I…

Make all CUVs and SUVs boxy again.

The concept of the blue collar rural farmer is largely incorrect now anyway. Most farming is the work of gigantic corporate coops, with the small family farm being all but dead. Not that this makes you WRONG, since the real power behind Trump is the corporate overlord.

Hence putting it in your CAR, which has NOT lost power.

Generally speaking, if you’ve lost power, your car still works.

Hurricane zones disagree with relying on cell phones. Just a few months ago, the entire Houston area lost power for 3-10 days, depending on the location. That included major losses in cell service and at least 1 cable provider going down as far away as Austin. AM radio still worked. Tons of people in hurricane areas…

It wouldn't be possible to fit it into a cell phone because of the necessary antenna.

His payment is almost double my mortgage lol.

There’s no other answer. Shortest slideshow in Jalopnik history.
