    I want to say that it's fake, but sadly, it's not much worse than any of the ads by Steve from Car Stereo One.

    @RLJ676-LS3 Commuter Car - for the environment: It just started working for me this morning. I maintain that I haven't seen an actual improvement in commenting in about 2 years. The last 3 rounds of changes have made things worse.

    I just want chronological, non-threaded commentary. No STARS, no THUMBS, no PROMOTIONS, no HEART CLICKS, etc. If I wanted all that cliquey one-upmanship, I'd use MySpace, Facebook, and/or Twitter.

    @RLJ676-LS3 Commuter Car - for the environment: I agree. Gawker seems to have taken the term "commentariat" to heart and adopted a "Everyone is equal, but some are more equal" attitude. I say they cannot keep us in the dark forever. Ignore the common commentariat at your own risk! Someday we'll rise up and overthrow the Wroika (Wert, Wes, and Wojdyla) and install Murilee as our Great Leader. We'll keep Hardigree around as the guy who we scapegoat for all our problems.

    I'm shocked the freaking Hilux hasn't been stolen already.


    I mean, it's a fucking Toyota Truck. That's like, GOLD in 3rd world countries.


    On a related note, I had my 1989 Toyota Camry broken into three times, each time they'd steal my shit, but never bothered taking my crummy CD deck. They popped my trunk and stole my sub and amp, but left my CD deck.


    weird.

    @Plecostomus needs GALVANIZED SCREWS: Part of the reason I like my Volvo is that you can't open the trunk from inside. That shit's safe, unless it's something you can get reaching through the not-totally-obvious ski passthrough.

    It's clever, not much resale value in it, but wouldn't a removable faceplate stereo be a lot easier? With 3 stolen in 3 months you'd think the cops would just stake out a place like that, easy pickings to find they guy (probably was the same guy). He's got to carry all that other stuff around, just take the faceplate along instead...

    @Hello_Newman: One of the three stolen stereos was a removable-faceplate unit (without the faceplate) and it was stolen anyway. These are crackheads, remember, so they're not particularly rational about determining the value of the stuff they steal.


    As for the cops staking out the parking lot: ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Oakland ha ha ha ha ha! They got 'em working in shifts!
