Mack Hogan is Jalopnik's Weekend Editor, but you may know him from his role as CNBC's car critic or his brave (and maligned) takes on Twitter. Most people agree that you shouldn't listen to him.

Oh yeah!  Get it, former intern!  Welcome back, and congrats on the editor gig!

I routinely look through listings for a nice LS430.  Not sure why, other than these cars scream quality to me, quality you can't buy anymore.  Find a tasteful after market option for the music/phone streaming and I'd be all set.  Might have to pull the trigger one of these days. Read more

In this car, I’m in a concert hall. I feel satisfaction from Read more

New drinking game! Take one drink every time the name of the car being reviewed is stated. It’s the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye by the way. Read more

It’s loud, it’s obnoxious, it can’t seem to pick a single direction to go in but tries to tug in all of them at once, it doesn’t do any job very well but it likes touting a headline grabbing number, its company has had multiple bankruptcies, it’s inexplicably popular amongst working class middle Americans while Read more

An acquaintance of mine picked one of these in great shape, for a song. Read more

Congrats, Mack. The styling on the first generation is far superior to anything that followed. If you haven’t done this recently, watch the opening of the first episode of The Sopranos. Read more

Before you go ruining your dashboards lovely design with a shitty aftermarket head unit, allow me to show you how I managed to get bluetooth with my stock head unit in my lovely 1996 LS. Works WAY better than the ghetto tape aux shit and its a lot better audio clarity.
