Indeed, crossovers/SUVs ruined both the sports coupe and 4x4 markets. Most people have convinced themselves that they need a vehicle that can “haul stuff.” They’d rather drive an overpriced, dorky, ponderous, egg-car every day of their lives than pay a $50 delivery charge the two times a year they buy a new piece of…

Actually a brilliant move for a hacker without a high school degree. Sure, a few years in an Indonesian prison will likely suck but he’ll land a cushy gig as an IT security consultant once he is out.

Seriously, he’ a young guy, not an aging trophy wife contemplating a modestly substantial divorce settlement.

Yeah, looks like all men, could have easily been confused for a Stag party.

Would it be possible to create a Jalopnik sub-site dedicated to crossovers, minivans, and other topics of interest to senior citizens, yoga moms, over-sized stroller enthusiasts and the like? It would make it all a lot easier to ignore.

Yeah, it’s known in some circles as the Jaguar E-type of egg cars.

Oh I know who buys the car, I just don’t know what sort of internal misguided emotions compels them to do it.

The funny thing is it looks two giant hands took the Regal wagon and compressed it lengthwise by 50%.

That paintjob looks nice nowhere outside of Spring Break, Daytona beach, 1989.

Football hooligans, thats who.

THAAD is but one layer in a multi-layered defense system, to suggest it is the only thing standing between a storm of 1000 missiles raining down from North Korea is an exaggeration.

This has to at least be in part be due to the fact that the purchase prices for large trucks and SUVs are so insanely high. A $3000 repair on a 15 year old Suburban is pretty easy to swallow when the cost of a new Suburban is pushing $60k. It is almost like owning a ship or an airplane vs a car.

I really do appreciate the fact that Chrysler is willing build absolutely insane street cars but lets be honest, aside from the handful of cars that are sent to Motor Trend the rest will be snapped up by middle aged Hawaiian shirt guys and kept in climate controlled garages, never driven, until the day they die. Then…

Seriously, why does everyone hate tire sidewall these days? What did it ever do to anyone besides provide a nice, smooth ride on the road and insane traction off-road?

The bike has to be light so that the Mr. Burns types who buy them can lift it out of the trunk when their manservants are tied up with other chores.

How about a base model Avalon? It is an unbelievably nice car for the money and can be had with a significant discount due to the fact that it is not a crossover.

Truth! I used to run 33 x 10.50s on my Bronco and they were the best:

The best thing we can do is to develop and improve our missile defense capability. Dedicate a large percentage of our defense budget and put our best scientists to work on it. I’m guessing that if the US could build effective missile defense before NK could build enough effective ICBMs and an arms race might be…

These days when flying people think you are hoity-toity simply for having a shirt with a collar or wearing shoes. Sweatpants, flip flops, a mustard stained over-sized t-shirt and an old, overstuffed shopping bag crammed into the overhead bin are fairly standard for men and women.

The junkyards in Phoenix usually have an informal bouncer on hand for just such occasions. It is usually a 300lb dude with more tats than teeth who is happy to help lift a transmission onto a cart or crack a few skulls when necessary.
