I’m going to suggest a 2016/17 Lexus RC350 Coupe w/RWD. Usable manufacturer options are slim which is usually a good sign the base model is fairly well equipped. Furthermore, they seem to hit the sweet spot of reliability throughout the warranty period. Something I both value and would accept as a weekly chore with…

Torch, but I’m sure Patrick will do just fine. Going to be hard following the tank but a Winter rout in a stripped out VW recall would make a very fitting year end edition of Jason Patrick Drives.

If there was a car this week that deserved a Jalopnik sticker this would be it.

What, this is college basketball. Or do 50 point miracle comebacks in the last 2 seconds only happen during the magical other dimension that is post-season college basketball on national television?

The thought of you in a 1000 hp road legal (cough) car scares the shit out of me if I’m honest. On second thought red seats end up being more apt for how scary that is.

Cavalier was indeed a surprisingly fun mountain car with the right set of tires. Very anonymous on the road too.

The official line through media has been admission by one or more players of multiple partners/multiple partners at one time (bit of grey area) consensually. The high profile parent and inclusion of an underage male were both cited as legal reasons blocking access to further information. Meaning good lawyers and…

For $5 you are damned right I’d be seen once in that.

With all the hubbub over Buy Gawker day I almost forgot how many great stories you managed. 2017 is going to need to bring stuff just as good as that neon G-Wagen and Eldora in a McLaren. The new amalgamation of a G-Wagen and Sprinter van or a Winter tire equipped GTC4Lusso would punch the same buttons.

That is just going way too far for a pull my finger gag. Just because you’re double deuce doesn’t make it acceptable.

I still prefer Zach Lavine’s “Fuck ME!” when the T-Wolves picked him. Followed by “Minnesota’s a great town.”

There is something disconcerting about those who just wave these issues off so nonchalantly.

Cold women up there is what I’ve heard too.

If he could find it in 8 F weather.

That is polite recognition of a writer I don’t always read for a story I would not have been aware of. The compliment would not have been offered if it wasn’t sincere.

After reading the leaked report it’s very apparent that there was a gang rape and much was done to lessen the effects on the football team. That a systematic process of removing evidence and procuring legal advice is being taught by adults within the system. Everything from security cameras that erase in a time…

One of the better articles you have written, Alanis. No doubt there is a deeper story that could have been unearthed but you managed to explore a relevant topic most of us wouldn’t have been aware of.

I read less than 1/10 the report and it was sickening. That criminal prosecution was waved off is sickening. Any shred of accountability has been washed away with the lightest slap on the hand that could be handed out. Years in jail, probation, public service, hell even precedent being set against this wanton…

I’d love it if anyone could tell me if the Pikes Peak winning Tesla is still abandoned at a charger in Denver. At last blush it had been a month or more and the charges will into the thousands.
