Earlier today, President Donald Trump met with the U.S. Secretary of Commerce to discuss opening an investigation into the impact of imported cars and car parts and “their effects on America’s national security.”
The Indianapolis 500 is one of several races that will leave you planted in front of the TV this Sunday and it’s known for one strange tradition: the winner gets handed a bottle of milk to drink and/or pour all over themselves. Indy 500 drivers even designate their preferred kind of milk before the race. Here’s what…
This’ll impress virtually zero of you, especially routine two-wheel commuters, but I have delightful news to share. I recently retrieved my bike back from my hometown in Michigan, more than a year after moving to New York City, and I used it this morning to commute to work. I didn’t die, and it was rad.
Phones are less expensive than a car, I get that, but here’s another bullet point to help illustrate the fact that more people are struggling to make their auto loan payments: Americans are prioritizing their phone bill over the car, reports Bloomberg.
Sometimes we all should take a step back from our work and view it from a distance—something Ferrari evidently failed to do as it didn’t catch it’s latest bodywork seemingly birthing a muscle car.
We see a lot of deals around the web over on Kinja Deals, but these were our ten favorites today.
The F-35 Lightning II has gotten a lot of crap all over the world for being both finicky to actually put into combat, and also for having stealth that doesn’t really work all the time. To prove it can both fly in the air and do it over enemy territory without being spotted by radar, Israel just released this photo of…
The Monaco Grand Prix organizers were one of the loudest opponents to Formula One’s decision to end the use of “grid girls” this year, so they’re going to have them anyway. Yet their role will change for this year, and there will be a mix of male and female models on the grid. So, progress? This actually sounds like…
Have you ever thought to yourself, “Gee, how would an axe murderer outfit a fine German drop-top sportscar?” Thankfully, the Porsche 718 Boxster configurator is here for you to answer that question and any others you may have over and over again to your heart’s content.
Elon Musk, of Tesla fame, is back on his bullshit about the media today. The latest idea—from the man who just recently invented the subway—is this: a website where the public can rate the credibility of journalists and publications. Cool.
Ford is done making cars that aren’t Mustangs but claims it will still have affordable vehicles for the masses. To that end, we get the 2018 Ford EcoSport: a one-liter micro SUV shipped from international markets to try and capitalize on America’s lust for tall-looking vehicles and low lease payments.
When you’re towing a kid in a new city without a car, it can be tempting to strap him in an Uber of Lyft—sans car seat—“just this one time.” Hidden cameras have discovered that drivers have been letting passengers do so. (“If you’re all right with it, I’m okay with it,” one driver said to an undercover mom.) But the…
You probably won’t use a pressure washer every week or even every month, but pressure washing your driveway, sidewalks, patio, and more will make them look brand new. I bought one last year and washed years of grime off my patio furniture in 10 minutes.
Uber informed “about 300” workers of their termination earlier today as part of plans to shut down its self-driving car testing program in Arizona following a fatal crash in March, where one of the company’s test vehicles struck and killed a pedestrian, according to The Arizona Republic.
Building cars is hard, as we all know (some more than others). There’s a lot more to the process than just slapping something together, handing it off to a guy in an ugly polo shirt who says things like “What’s it gonna take for me to get you into this today?”, and and calling it a day. Bugatti, which is no stranger…
There are many types of motorcycles and most are optimized for a specific style of riding. But as far as I’m concerned, a street legal dirt bike is the galaxy-brain solution and so the 2019 Honda CRF450L, with its LED turn signals and big-displacement single-cylinder engine, is about to become the ultimate two-wheeler.
In a fit of boundless national optimism, Peugeot and Renault (and a few years later Volvo) teamed up to make a new V8 for good power and performance. But that’s not what the world got. We welcomed in the PRV V6, a cut-down compromise engine that for decades powered more amazing and amazingly bad cars than you would…
Nordstrom has two large sales each year: The Anniversary Sale and The Half-Yearly Sale. Well, today is about halfway through the year, so Nordstrom is taking up to 40% off a boatload of styles.
Hello, devout Jalopnik readers. I’m sure by now you’re well aware that Elon Musk, the Tesla/Space X billionaire bro, the big kid with an even bigger wallet, is dating Grimes, the Canadian indie musician/producer/critically acclaimed weirdo, born Claire Elise Boucher. But who are these people? What does it all mean?
