Funds will be appropriated for charging infrastructure so long as that infrastructure is available to the public, capable of charging vehicles made by more than one manufacturer, and can be paid for via credit card

$12,500 won't build a new garage when the Union-Built Bolt burns it down.  Crack pipe.

Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit packing raw chicken in my carry-on.

Somebody checked their carrion?

I’d be willing to bet the lid was taped shut, but the TSA cut the tape to inspect it and failed to re-tape it. Because the TSA. 

The Aztek is good for running over child-murdering drug dealers, though.

These had HUGE cargo capacity, low load floor, and tons of headroom. If I had a family this would have been my minivan alternative

And the ONLY reason Ford kept these around for so long was because of how well it sold in California. I see several of these a day. It’s basically a refrigerator on wheels, and for that I love it. Not to mention, the Ecoboost engine could hit 400 HP easily with just a tune. 

I will always appreciate a supercar that gets driven over one that sits in a bunker as an “investment”. Take the thing out and drive it! Life is too short to worry about depreciation.

Ford Flex. It wasn’t a flop, but selling a little over 300,000 units during a run of 12 model years wasn’t enough for the blue oval. Selling a CUV alternative is tough when your customers overwhelmingly prefer a regular old CUV. The cool and funky wagon-ish vehicle lost out bigly to the generic blobs. Sad!

Only 35k ever made over a 4 year run. Partially because GM killed the brand (along with Pontiac), and partially because it filled a niche between the Corvette and Miata (and the base level competed directly with the Miata)...an answer to a question few really asked. 

I feel like a broken record saying this on so many QOTD posts, but the MR2 Spyder. It didn’t sell well because it was a huge change from the previous generation and didn’t have much available storage. It out performed the Miata for less money. It was a 2,195lbs, mid-engine, rear wheel drive sports car in the low…

1998 - 2002 Pontiac Trans Am

The Nissan NX. It was the successor to the Pulsar NX that is well-loved on Jalopnik. Based on the Sentra platform, it was available with the SR20DE engine from the SE-R plus all of the SE-R’s handling accoutrements, in addition to having larger brakes than the SE-R offered. It also came with t-tops and a sporty…

SS, G8, Caprice, Volt, and, of course, the Camaro VI.

Alfa Romeo 4C.  Whew...what a beauty!

The Pontiac G8 and Chevy SS never sold well when new. Blame it on inadequate marketing buzz from GM? But of course these days, 10 years later, good examples are selling for almost the original MSRP.

The Pontiac Aztek. Heinous looks aside, it was actually a great car, which was why the Buick Rendezvous outsold GM’s projections.

How about the pricing for that Armor All paint protection?
