This article is ignoring history.

You don’t like loud pipes? Because you’re not a biker.

Why would Jalopnik commit to more and better motorcycle coverage with Lanesplitter and then proceed to write a post on Jalopnik inviting a bunch of car drivers to vote on what they hate most about motorcyclists? Are the same people writing for both blogs? I hope…

This comment wins this whole argument.

Please, by all means, give me your ignorant white-washed version of history where the North is this gallant beacon of liberty, and the south was a bunch of mouth-breathing racists driven by their hatred of the black man. I’m sure it’s a wonderful story with heroics galore. It’s just not true.

From the start of the…

The secession statements list several causes for secession. The secession statement for Virginia makes no mention of slavery at all. And the Union continued to hold slaves until well after the war. Saying the Civil War was about slavery is simply moronic.

uh, that is the southern pride flag? has absolutely nothing to do with racism but the winners do tend to write history as they please...

And yet the KKK are still very legally allowed to assemble. Oppressing people’s freedom to fly flags wont fix anything. I’m an upper class white male from New Jersey, I don’t associate with the confederate flag, nor do I even own one. I’m speaking from seeing reason.

The flag has been adopted during the war and was first being used as a battle flag and a navy jack, not the state flag. Afterwards, it was used as a heritage flag and a symbol of the south by anyone from random people to the military units in WW2; until the 1950s and 60s. That’s when the civil rights and the…

North vs South was about Sectionalism, Economics, Representation, States Rights, Expansionism, Internal Improvements, Banking, Federalism and Suborning Insurrection. Slavery? Bullshit. The Union had six slave states. The North didn’t free their slaves until 10 months after the end of the Civil War, and only then…

Sorry, but the trolls are the ignorant morons who keep parroting the line that this flag is a symbol of hate. You might as well ban the American flag for the same reasons.

I know! I’m from the north, so I never really cared about the confederate flag one way or the other, but the Duke brothers are just a couple good ol’ boys, never meaning no harm! I guess, in fairness, they have been in trouble with the law since the day they was born.

Israel vs Palestine is about land rights.

This could be applied to the Miata as well. PURE BS this list is.

I can’t stand the things, but I am a bit surprised the New Beetle isn’t on the list:

Since modern pickup trucks are more often than not used as cars, and primary transportation for a lot of people, I’d say you fail at cars.

Yeah, the BMW 2 series? The FRS, with pretty dismal sales? Sure, good cars, but not turnarounds or comebacks. BMW isn’t, didn’t, and doesn’t need a comeback from anything. I remember when this truck came out and the US realized trucks didn’t have to be clunky funky beat up work horses. It completely revolutionized the…

Agreed! Saw your post on the ram. I posted the Taurus for making American cars viable again and bringing decent interiors and styling to Fords, but no love there either.

Agreed. ND Miata #1?? Can you even buy the thing yet?

Seriously... I’m normally not one to complain about the list, but... the Model S? Really?
