Here’s my thing about these kinds of cars. They’re awesome. The Bugattis I have in Gran Turismo are cool. I’ve won a few online races with the Group 4 one. But, realistically speaking, I doubt I’ll ever once in my life drive one, let alone see one. I feel the same about the supercars I do see (McLarens, Ferraris,… Read more

All joking and bashing aside: I can read about climate change and all the world’s problems anywhere. When I come to Jalopnik and click on a review of some crazy Bugatti, I want to escape reality for a bit and read about the ultimate car. Read more
He looked like a total badass. The control of his weapon points to adequate training. Glad he’s armed and spraying our highways for justice.
The utilization argument is flawed generally. There are actually 2 things to look at - likelihood, and consequences, or to say it another way, importance. I think people use the utilization argument and only look at likelihood and call the outliers “edge cases” and that’s missing the point. I don’t need to go to the… Read more
Thieves suck. But crime like this shoots up during economic unrest. If people had good jobs with pay that at the very least matched inflation, there would be FAR less package theft going on in this country. Read more
Heck, I still remember working the left-handed threads on the driver’s side lugnuts of 1960s Chrysler products. Makes me think maybe the buddy system would be the most foolproof.
Is a base 911 worth as much as a Cayman GT4 ($101,200 for both)? That’s the real question IMO.

Is it wrong that I’m sort of rooting for it to get stuck again?
The footage in the GIF on this picture was taken from the front yard of my friend’s house. There’s a slight downhill and a corner there that people seem to have a real problem with. He had 3 cars crash into his front yard (And ended up on the front steps of his house (luckily they were concrete or it would have been… Read more
I was a spectator at The Lamest Day in 2009. I had my first LeMons team the following April at Gingerman, where we took home the Heroic Fix trophy. Read more
Please do some stories on tread lightly and other ways to use and protect trails and access. Nubes can easily ruin it for those who are responsible users of outdoor resources.
Will this involve motocamping/ADV bike stuff as well? Read more
