Sergio is genius in a lot of ways. When he pushed back at the unions to get a fairer buyout price of Chrysler stock, he worked it. Someone suggested he’s doing similar stall tactics with new products, to work the unions again. I actually believe this may be true.

No. I'm not sure of the quote, myself, but apparently, this is all he wears. Mind you, they are probably $1,000 sweaters, not the kind you find at Kmart.

Dad, oldest brother and youngest brother all ride, too. I have a bit of perspective. Youngest does have a tendency to go fast. Maybe getting that old Moto Guzzi will slow him down a bit.

I’ve been here (Jalopnik) since practically the beginning, somewhere around 2004 or so (I guess), so I’m no hater or troll. I like bikes, but I have other toys that preclude my ability to own/afford one, besides my wife’s aversion to them. It’s not hate to consider what “could” happen. I will admit, many things can…

I just watched one yesterday where the splitter got caught between a box truck that was pulling around a parked vehicle, and a car coming in the opposite direction. I don’t think he was hurt badly, but that truck put the squeeze on him, and he HAD to be pooping his pants.

I honestly don’t get why VW has failed so successfully. Could it be that people, in spite of what the rags say, make their own decisions? My old boss was a FIRM believer in that whatever CR spewed was the Gospel. I think that some people are swayed by publications that swear to be completely objective, but somehow…

And I worry about measly deer.

Kinda what I was thinking. 800 is pretty light.

What about a Wrangler sans top and doors?

We used what we called a snuggle jug- coincidentally, a jug from an empty Snuggle fabric softener with the top cut off. Just pee into and fling the contents out the window. Problem was less the peeing part, but the shaking-off so as not to leave that last squirt in your undies.

Eh. I don't go out of my way to look at the "booth babes" either, but what the hell? People get all upset about the dumbest things. Ooh, he's ogling that beautiful woman. So what! Last I looked, Chippendales is still making calendars, too.

Well, for me, it's only what wifey is watching on the Food Channel 'cuz I don't go to the fancy ones, anyway!

Or, the guy who dresses up desserts in fancy restaurants.

Looks like a printed circuit board.

There's a car in the picture?

They are sharp in person. I saw one in Miami last year. But, I still don't like the grille. Reminds me of Snidley Whiplash.

Yes, remember when? (wistfully) Until they discovered Ash78 was getting half the wins.

What I find funny, is that once you have a pre-conceived notion of the car, you have a tendency to scale it to that original perception. Then, when you see it in person, it turns out to be bigger or smaller than you first envisioned. The Honda Element always looked smaller in pictures, until I saw one up close. And it…

Yeah, can you see him in the red Dodge, but playing the character in True Lies? Simon, Texas Ranger, only he's a womanizing coward.

With campers, yes.
