I'm tired of being critical of Acura. Now, as we go into 2014, I am more convinced than ever that doing so is a meaningless exercise. I have never seen any company, automotive or otherwise, more committed to doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

This. So completely this.

Nope. I got torches. And not those chintzy torches either - the ones that blow out from the slightest of magical winds from open castle doors. Nosiree. These torches never go out. Burn right down to the hand if you're not careful, magical open door winds be damned...

Is this guy pissing in the gas tank?

Dammit, Matt! What did I tell you about posting erection-inducing images while I'm at work?!

Parade rainer.

WHY DON'T MORE HOODS DO THIS???! My Z was super convenient to work on - BECAUSE OF THIS!

A million Jalopnikbucks to the readers who get a picture with him and anything vaguely resembling a Trans-Am.

That was both hilarious and unnecessarily graphic. Thank you.

AMG tuned Mercedeses have been raucous wild childs (children? I guess it's children.) since they first appeared. Let BMW's M make the cars that are amazing all rounders, because AMG will make tanks with giant engines that are adept at ruining tires by the dozen.

That's funny because there are a ton of companies trying to show-off 19th-century power plants with 21st-century tech.

Unfortunately, this is a no-go. The larger a metallic object is, the easier it is to detect through MAD (Magnetic Anomaly Detection). Essentially, the earth's magnetic field is distorted by the submersible in measurable ways. The larger the object, the greater the distortion. Objects of the size required to full the…

Buying clipless pedals with minimal or no float is a bad idea all around. And, frankly, there is no business or biomechanical case for these pedals, particularly given the fact that cycling is one of the lowest impact exercises one can engage in, and platform pedals offer infinite float by - you know - not locking…

Boil this down even further:

Of course, therein lies the challenge. As the popularity of AWD increases how do you still add MPGs in your quest to reach federal fuel economy requirements? American Axle says it has a solution in a system — employed on the 2014 Jeep Cherokee — that only uses AWD when necessary and mostly just uses FWD.

For teams with little jockeys at the wheel this weight limit won't be such a problem. Felipe Massa, for instance, stands just 5' 4" and weighs 130 pounds, as ESPN reports.
