It failed because it was out of date and overpriced, not because it was missing a 3rd row.

At this point, I think people are getting wise to the fact that a folding 3rd row is rarely used and not very useful when it is needed. IME, it is not the selling point it once was or is still thought to be.

Top Marx to both of you.

I’ve flipped and, chances are, you’ve flipped too. Flipping is not inherently bad when you buy something with potential and improve it for the betterment of auto and mankind. That’s not the case when you briefly touch something just for a cynical money grab.

Usurious flipping, though, is one of my triggers. Thanks for…

NYC sucks.

To make this mistake, you’d have to pour in multiple jugs of washer fluid in there. At what point do you stop and say, “wait a second, this doesn’t add up at all...”

Good. More power to them. Kudos to them for finding a loophole in a stupid law that is (in my opinion) archaic in regard our global economy.

Autonomous cars? Nope nope nope nope

“I think the fundamental, pureéd gruel-like blandness of the Dodge Diplomat is probably best summed up in how this promo movie describes it’s size: “between a compact and an intermediate!”’

Golf-freakin’-clap.

If this doesn’t get CoTD, someone has some serious ‘splainin’ to do!

I don’t always LOL at a Jalopnik comment (unicorn-rare), but when I do, I prefer it to be selected for CoTD.

Now you’ve got it!

Aha, but how can Qatar continue funding terror after spending $12 billion on F-15s?
