No. For having been around here for many years and providing useful commentary, and for the fact that I am not greyed in most other areas of Jalopnik.

All these comments about lack of sales kinda make me laugh, living in Vancouver. I drive by at least 5-10/day and I have a 5km commute. They’re more common than Civics, I swear.
Can I be ungreyed please? I thought I was ‘round here already...
Probably. It looked like he was approaching way too quickly even if his brakes were working. He should’ve been able to figure out WAY back that they weren’t going to help and pushed the air release, and or geared down like it was going out of style. Although he would’ve been skidding on his rear axles, his fronts…
Negative, Ghost Rider. Auto adjusters are exactly that, and adjusting them when they’re out, usually only lasts one or two brake applications before they’re back to where they were, also, if they were so far gone he had that little braking, then they were way past the adjusting stage.
In Soviet Russia, Ford come to YOU for Bronco.
I think the point everyone is making is that it’s fun to play pretend, and clearly you’re pretty hung up on them if you’re so upset that they always tease us but rarely take those concepts to production.. They’re artistic expressions of what can be done with a really big paycheque and a Jeep. Most of them are…
Again, right to refusal of unsafe work. Also, if you documented it in your daily logs and your employer refuses to take care of it you have a modicum of protection against being anally raped by the judicial system. Personally, I would look for a more reputable employer.
Yes. Right to refusal of unsafe work. You can lose your job, or you can do something like this... If the employer fires you you are protected as an employee, at least in most civilized places.
Right to refusal of unsafe work. Every worker has it. And yeah, you could lose your job, but you could also do something like this.
Except you are still required to check them, and they do still fail. Frequently.
I know it’s Sunday, so we’re not exactly pulling out the pulizer prize winners, but my god, did you pass Grade 8 English? That whole article was so poorly written I got a headache decyphering what it was supposed to say...
Slack adjusters way out of adjustment, or the Scams flipped. Either way it’s the driver’s fault. That’s why you do a pre-trip and sign off on it. If the brakes were that far out of adjustment it should’ve been evident when he was checking his slack adjusters that morning. That’s the only type of “brake failure” in an…
People on the internet that fail to grasp hyperbole, whether sarcastically or not, are cute. Did someone not get the toy they wanted for Christmas when they were a kid?
Because it’s EJS and they’ve done this every year since the dawn of time?
You need to prepare your body. Everyone else needs to prepare their kleenex boxes.
They’re heavy.
It’s the only way to get total coverage.
Except when you’re talking about something as completely opulant and excessive as this type of car. We’re not talking about someone having enough money to buy a house, therefore they can afford to buy two. We’re talking about someone who already bought a few houses, and can afford to forget where one of them even is.…
The press release over at ExPo says 600lbs for the RTT, IIRC...
