I would have not cut up a 2009 Brabus for this experiment; there were not many of those made that year. That said, starting with a Brabus as a base is sort of hilarious. It came slightly lowered from the factory, which makes lifting it almost a middle finger to Brabus. lol Read more

Oh great. I live in the area. I can barely write this over how angry it makes me. I ride mostly in bike lanes, wear a fluorescent yellow vest and have numerous lights to make me as visible as possible. Yet I have repeatedly been almost hit by people in their cars- the most recent when someone ran a stop light and not… Read more

“...that technicians are required to be meticulous about engine maintenance and have redundant safety procedures built in”. True, but vague. In reality, the person performing maintenance on your engine, and aircraft, has obtained a professional license issued by the FAA that they earned either through a multi-year… Read more

Nice pull from Jim Croce. You now have my wife singing the song all around the house… heh Read more

Hey, these are really good suggestions, especially the Regal and the Flex Read more

The correct answer to these questions is always Flex or Miata. In this case its Flex. My wife has a Limited Flex with the engine mentioned & she loves flooring it on onramps & saying “Wheeeee” and she is NOT a car gal. I’m not gonna lie this toaster hustles & is comfy as F to ride in. 10/10 recommend  Read more

This was a genuinely good slide show. There are some pretty good story tellers who visit this site. Read more

Five years ago, when I was still prone to making stupid decisions (and to finding adrenaline rushes) I took my previous Subaru - this bone-stock 2018 XT - up a road called South Colony Lakes to get to a trailhead so I could attempt to climb a 14er called Crestone Peak. It’s a road rated “difficult 4wd”. There were…

Reading the comments section in Jalopnik every time there’s a study that says “cars are bad actually” is both amusing and depressing at the same time. We’re all Jalops, we all love cars, but there’s so many things that we use cars for that just aren’t necessary at the end of the day. Some of it can be easily… Read more

For those of you fortunate enough not to know who Michael Shellenberger is, he’s a corporate shill with a background in public relations. He has zero training in any science or environmental subjects, but he is handsomely paid by the nuclear power industry and various conservative think tanks for his “contrarian”… Read more

I’m sorry, but someone needs to step up the editing on this site.  I get not catching imperfect grammar, or the occasional spelling mistake - there’s a lot of content here.  But SURELY someone should have seen and fixed the random assortment of numbers and letters in the title, and in the body of the text.  It’s not… Read more

Having sold on there - they’ll argue with you, but at the end of the day, it’s your car - they’ll let you list it for whatever you wish to list it for.  They’ll just probably laugh at you from the other end of their computer whilst doing so.   Read more

You think journalists can just go grab whatever picture they want off the internet? Lol. Read more

you understand that to do that would require them to acquire new licensing for a one off image which would likely need to go through a buying department and take multiple days...instead of just using the image library they already have a license for and getting the article out in a timely manner. Journalism requires… Read more

Damn, their sources didn’t even request to be anonymous for this. They clearly had their lawyers review the article beforehand, and the sources absolutely do not give a fuck. Kudos. Read more

Clarkson’s an ass. His schtick (adolescent, ribald, sexist humor) was past its prime fifteen years ago. He’s had a lot of success by pushing boundaries (in absolutely the wrong direction) and then apologizing. What he wrote was absolutely disgusting.  There’s simply no humor in it, even if one were to assume he was… Read more
