Heh. No, as the post says, I'm out in L.A. right now for a lot of the year. Read more

Thanks, but too far away. Read more

I mean, I was only 25 in 2004 — just a few years out of college. How old do you think I am?! Read more

Please — you can't be insinuating that owning a Liberty is the same as owning a Toyota Corolla or a Camry. That's a beige too far. Read more

Well, I'm in need of a new vehicle since I'm out in L.A. most of the year now. Want to help me find something? Read more

I'm pretty sure everyone already knows this. But... for the benefit of those who don't — in 2004, my 1998 XJ's four-liter grenaded on me after 150K+ miles.

For those of you who don't believe me, I urge you to come take a walk with me through the Ford F-150 online configurator. First up is the XL model, which comes in at a reasonable $26,400 with shipping. But you don't want the XL model. Nobody wants the XL model, because it doesn't include stuff like cruise control or…

On October 11th, 2004, Jalopnik sprang forth into the automotive world with rampant sarcasm and occasional automotive news. Over the last 10 years, we've witnessed a number of automakers go through brand-defining changes. What brand has changed the most, for better or for worse? Read more

I mean, the F-250, F-350, and F-450 all share the same platform. So maybe "Half-Ton" and "Heavy Duty?" Read more

Even if Brady Hoke didn't see it, one of his other coaches should have. Which means they failed to bring it to Hoke's attention — a failure that is ultimately Hoke's responsibility. Read more
