I love this truck and I do love Jalopnik, I’ve been a follower since 2008.  But for the love of god, can you guys just write automotive articles without predicating them on heated and politically debated topics.  Just providing a hyperlink doesn’t add to any credibility and it takes away from the actual content at

Thanks for this well written and measured response! There will be many cases from Sturgis, no doubt. The numbers in the study are laughable though. I work for the largest healthcare company in the country, nearly every one of their predictions and models were off. This one study... give me a break.

“seems significantly off” based Healthcaredive’s article on a peer reviewed academic study in Health Affairs VOL 39, NO. 6 published April, 23rd 2020 “The Potential Health Care Costs And Resource Use Associated With COVID-19 In The United States”.

While we all anticipated that Sturgis was going to be a COVID shit show, the figure of $46,000 average cost for a single COVID case doesn’t seem very credible.

I am always happy to criticize the NYPD and have attended many a protest in my lifetime, but facts matter in a story like this and it does a disservice not to include more information. There is record of the person involved vandalizing public safety cameras around the city. Now, we might try out the rhetoric that

Yeah this is nuts.

Despite NYPD’s claims, the videos posted of the event show no bottles or rocks being thrown as these men snatched up the protester and hustled her into an unmarked minivan, though clearly marked cops on Trek-brand bikes can be seen maintaining a perimeter around the kidnapping

Or how about the fact that as of last year, less than 5% of Li-Ion batteries were currently being recycled around the worlds countries. That’s not only eye opening, it’s fucking scary and needs to get sorted out fast.

What about the environmental impact of resource extraction to create the battery technology? Cobalt, lithium, and other elements that need to be mined from the Earth in (commonly) unstable (politically) countries? Is that included in the calculation? We need to change our lifestyle and car culture, but lubricants and


Tell me that this new Renault compact truck doesn’t look just like a ford ranger from the 1920, I DARE YOU.

I don’t agree with Clarkson hating on Greta, but I think his message is valid. Why should we sit around and argue about how we are going to die and when we are going to die, instead of focusing on how to fix these issues?

Why was the engine running if she was pumping gas?

“having drugs in her system at the time of the crash, a fact which, in its most charitable interpretation, means Herzberg was not alert enough to dive out of the way of the Uber SUV prior to impact.”

Ford Escort RS Cosworth?

Ugliest damn design I’ve ever seen.

If you have low oil, the engine stops. The new engine will come with a new sensor.

In General, not a Goodyear for that tire.

I say this as a former NASCAR fan and as commentary of this article but...
