The second rule of Jalopnik is... you do not talk about Jalopnik.
The third rule of Jalopnik is... you do not question Ray Wert.
The fourth rule of Jalopnik is... you DO NOT question Ray Wert.
The fifth rule of Jalopnik is... you do not defile the El Camino, any wagons, the Fiero, any Volvos, and in general unreliable but soulful cars.
The sixth and final rule of Jalopnik is... you DO NOT defile Megan Fox or Murilee Martin, the two Goddesses of Jalopnik. (Somebody broke this rule not long ago, ahem.)
let's see who should we trust more: the website that does nothing but cover automobiles or a show that i've never heard anything about automobiles on. this is a tough one.
The Fiero basically sucked but I would have been hugely disappointed in our dear J-nik if it wasn't included. Let the public radio guys have their first-gen Priuses.
Heard you a few times on NPR in the last week, Ray. Unfortunately, you seem to be the go-to guy for the 3-5 seconder, rather than a full 5-10 minute segment.

Bad concussion, great sound system. Shortly after that, he started stealing cars.
Take from that what you will.

I'm a complete NPR dork, but Kai had my old boss on a couple of years ago and it was all about classic and antique car collecting.
In terms of all-NPR programming, Ray's been on several times and Car talk is a highly entertaining way to spend a Saturday morning drive.

Marketplace is part of American Public Media, not NPR.
(Although they likely play on your local NPR Affiliate)

Hopefully it's not a pattern repeated elsewhere.
