My wife told me about this when I was about to leave for work this morning, and I got a little choked up. I’m still in a bit of shock. I just saw Keri’s “time machine” post yesterday but didn’t suspect anything. As the article says, maybe it was a coincidence.

The 2020 Bronco Sport is what would happen if my 2006 Escape got really into bouldering

I gotta say I hate this a lot less than I thought I would. 

Jason,

He saw cities getting destroyed across the country during BLM protests. The reality is indeed that most, not all, but most damage was done by people who just wanted to break things and not actually protest. So when you see these cities burning down, does that not look like an act of terrorism? Not everyone understands…

I think the BLM = terrorism was spawned from seeing all the businesses and communities get destroyed. The BLM movement struggled at least initially to distinguish the people protesting inequality and the anarchists just there to break shit. And to be fair there definitely was over lap between the groups.

Honestly, I think the main issue is really going to be convenience and cost, at the consumer level. Like, you’ve gotten everybody used to plugging their car in and paying maybe ten, fifteen bucks a week, if that, to charge their car since solar panels will be all over everything that doesn’t move by 2030 at this rate.…

How can the relative contents of a hand sanitizer change in a closed system (sealed bottle)?

Many sectors simply won’t work properly without the energy density of hydrocarbons. A 2500ton airliner simply won’t fly, or if it does be too large for any airport. Same problem for road- and seafreight.

Gene Haas, are you listening? Because you need to make a move, and it’s going to make Rich Energy money look like lemonade stand change, because it’s real, and it’s going to come your way. If you follow these three simple steps.

Do we have to flip through a slide show to see other pictures of it?

I mean it’s clear to anyone with an ounce of gray matter that the police is essential to any society, and police will need cars to do their jobs. There should be no controversy at this.

Tahoe’s and the Suburban have always surprised me how little space they have inside them compared to how huge the exterior is. A family friend had a suburban and a minivan and the minivan could seat 6-7 way more comfortably with more leg room in 2nd and 3rd rows. But the minivan couldn’t pull a large boat like the…

You get a call five minutes after reading The Morning Shift. It’s someone with a British accent you can’t understand because they’re also crying, and they tell you that you are now in charge of Jaguar Land Rover. What should you do?

Nailed Musk 100%. But also... my experience with those folks is to ignore them - their goal is to get attention, so don’t give it to them. It only brings on more of it.

Report when those antics actually endanger people - his COVID denial bullshit actually matters - but don’t dedicate articles to juvenile jokes.…

Although I am surely not the first to comment about this... There is a place on Kinja for political spin and bias, and it isn’t Jalopnik. I had a conversation over the weekend with 4 friends who are all car guys, and we all agreed that the content on Jalopnik is straying further and further from what we want to read.…

You ever drive a Wrangler? What does it do well on the road? The answer is not much. Sure, it has off road chops and the ability to shed it’s top and doors but how much drive-ability on pavement do you compromise for that? The answer is a lot. 97% of the Wranglers will never make it past a dirt road.

I’ll be that guy today.

I might not want a Rogue now, but a Rogue with 700 hp is suddenly compelling.
