... Are there that many 3row SUVs from that era? I was thinking how unique that 3rd row is given its age.

I had a GMC Canyon with leather outers and cloth inners and hated the dog hair sticking to the cloth. Got leather in the Wrangler I replaced it with. Yep, dog slides around too much.

Not for my dog... but leather or fake leather/vinyl will scorch your ass in the summer. Exact reason I got the base GTI, comes with that tartan cloth.

It’s a cool truck that I didn’t know existed. For what I would use this thing for [beach duty and around town] it would definitely work. However, I think of what kind of Isuzu Rodeo or Trooper or Montero or Gen I/II Pathfinder, Jeep XJ or...whatever else I can get with that scratch, and I start to think ‘nah, I’m…

CP just for this

I’m about as pinko commie as you get around these parts, but I think that’s something we just have to make peace with as car guys. The machines that impress us are always going to be ostentatious, and the owners of the really special stuff are always going to be wealthy. I still admire the cars, and I find some of the…

Yet that disease isn’t tetanus, somehow.

Curious now. What’s a GMC Eagle? Hopefully it is built better than an AMC Eagle...  Though, as a GM product, I would doubt it.

I disagree with this take.  Hey man, it’s your opinion and I’m not going to get all bent out of shape about it.  In fact, let’s try this.  “Hey Bradley!  Thanks for showing me some cool-ass thing I didn’t know existed!”  I personally think it’s ridiculous, excessive and I like it.  Wouldn’t buy one even if I could…

“Is there a correlation between the number of people liking Safari cars and the number of different companies building shitty knockoffs and ridiculous hyperbolic versions of the original concept?”

Seems like your recent articles have been pretty negative- or at least laced with negativity. Comes across cranky to me I guess.

I think there is not only a correlation, but a causation, between a lot of people liking it and a lot of people making them.

I cant believe how good this looks.
Is it insane,stupid and ridiculous? All of those and more. But i love it.

Wow, you are super cranky lately. Everything okay??

How else was I supposed to read this?:

...can we just declare it dead now?

Would you pay that for an unadulterated Saturn Sky? No. So why would you pay it for a Saturn Sky with a bad body kit?

Slight difference between modifying your car for performance and modifying it to intentionally pollute. Like the difference between an athlete wearing tight spandex to run faster and a guy flashing kids in a trenchcoat. In both examples, my child self becomes a bit more familiar with the shape of adult male genitalia,…

What you might be missing is that these clowns are in Utah where, due to our geography, we regularly have the most polluted air in the nation. Because of the winter inversions along the Wasatch front we have dozens of winter days where kids can’t play outside as the air is classified as dangerous to breathe. It’s not…

1. This is definitely a false equivalency.
