Meanwhile, George Santos’ campaign is raising red flags for reporting 37 (37!) campaign-related, receipt-less expenses at exactly $199.99, one cent below the $200 expense receipt requirement. And Brazil is in the process of trying to extradite the motherfucker as well.

This actually fills a gap in the track car market when you consider that the GT4 RS is essentially unobtainable for MSRP and the 911 market for most models is still bonkers (GT3 RS is roughly $190-220K these days).

The SHO seemed like a perfect fit for the movie. Most of Tim Allen’s apartment (in the movie) was decorated with subtle nods to racing, muscle cars and American car culture in general. It also felt like a carry-over from Home Improvement where Tim Taylor was obsessed with building his hot rod and having Mario Andretti…

My cousin is the same way. There are so many stories about his past that just don’t add up but it’s nearly impossible to tell what the truth is at times. Initially we believed him on everything but then we met someone else who knew him through other channels and they had a whole new different set of information - like…

Honda dealerships are hit or miss. When we went to buy my wife’s CR-V, working with the two local dealerships (Honda North in Danvers, MA and Honda Cars of Boston in Everett) was a fucking nightmare. Each dealership had their own set of games.

I can’t really judge anyone for how they spend their money. There are so many factors at play - they could be bringing home $200K+/year, in which case, $1K/month isn’t a huge stretch for them. Or they could be the kind of people who only buy a new car every 15-20 years, so spending $50K on a new car seems reasonable…

Especially when the lenders (often the car companies themselves) are also pressuring car buyers into purchasing thousands of dollars of add-ons (warranties, etc) on top of the car’s purchase price.

Season 1 was much better than I thought it would be. Clarkson seems like a genuinely nice person on that show but then he does stupid shit like obsess over Meghan Markle and hit a BBC employee. Dude needs to get his shit together.

It’s not insane any more. The average price for a non-luxury vehicle is $44,584. When you factor in high interest rates (~5.3% for good credit), destination and registration fees, taxes and dealership add-ons like extended warranties and PPF, a 48-month loan on all that can easily hit $1K/month. It’s a really crappy…

The U-Force for the NES was complete garbage.  It was up there with the Power Glove in that it looked cool but it didn’t actually work.

It’s sad to see what Jalopnik has become. It used to be full of great content provided by Doug Demuro, Chris Harris, Torch, Tyler Rogoway, etc. Today it’s just a deserted wasteland with a “What are the worst cars you’ve ever driven?” post followed the next day by a “Here are the worst cars you’ve ever driven”…

I had an Avenger for a rental car back in 2012 and I vividly remember the transmission never being in the right gear at the right time.  What a giant PoS.

Markey’s my local representative and he’s a good guy. Yes, he’s old and has been in the House and Senate since before I was even born (I’m in my 40's) but I’m glad that he’s standing up for this because it is an essential service for emergencies.

If your partner is whining about the credibility of a WNBA star vs a Marine, you can shut them up pretty quickly by informing them that Paul Whelan was discharged from the Marines for bad conduct on several accounts of larceny and never told his family about it.  Also, as others have mentioned, Russia refused to…

It doesn’t matter how much people get paid in the US. If there’s an opportunity to make more/additional money overseas, some athletes are going to take advantage of it. Just look at all the male golfers heading over to the LIV tour in Saudi Arabia.

I’m also getting some Omega Speedmaster or Seamaster vibes from him too.

I don’t remember much from their show other than the episode where Jon is hanging out with the Paul and Paul Sr. Tuetul (from American Choppers), having a beer, looking very dejected and basically said something along the lines of “I was 20-something years old with 8 kids.” You could tell that he was really unhappy…

He didn’t just layoff software engineers though. He laid off many other people who were critical to necessary functions of the company like HR and most of the group responsible for implementing and executing Twitter’s Child Safety measures.  It’s been reported that there’s only one person left to monitor child sexual…

I took my E46 330Ci Coupe into my local dealership back in the late 2000's to get some work done that was covered under warranty. While I was sitting with the service rep he was going through the list of maintenance items that were due on the car. One of them was the cabin air filter. The service guy knew that I was a…

You’re spot on. As fun as it is to speculate that the crypto bros are the reason why prices are falling, the real reasons are that interest rates have sky-rocketed specifically to get prices down and the days of everyone sitting in their house for months-on-end and saving more money than normal (and the impending…
