If I had to wager a guess, to suck money out of investors. I mean, they couldn’t even be bothered to pay an artist for their concept images. Read more

I’ll go a step bigger: The Nissan Rogue isn’t a bad car. No idea if it’ll last 300,000 miles, but the first few owners will get a fine car. Read more

Huh, Boeing's slacking, that guy should be dead by now... Read more

Exactly. You’re not buying a C 63 AMG as a grocery-getter, which is why I’m leaning toward the owner knowing it wasn’t kosher. Read more

The punishment for importing an illegal car is having the car exported or crushed. Auto Parts City got a junk certificate for the car, satisfying that requirement. Read more

Oh, and I forgot the wildest part, AC Future thinks these RV things will solve the housing crisis. Now, how a poor person is supposed to afford a $200k+ RV is beyond me... Read more

Motor1 missed the craziest part. AC Future doesn’t just want to make a future RV, it also wants the eTH to replace your house, or at least become an annex of your house. The company even wants to make a travel trailer and stationary version without wheels. lol Read more

Despite 15 cars and 8 motorcycles in my fleet, my heart still has the softest spot for Smart. Sure, Smarts have never been the fastest, most fuel efficient, or the easiest to live with.

The entire insurance industry. Ok, so here’s this thing you’re legally forced to have. The idea is that if you crash into someone, this company can ease the pain of the parties involved. The company can pay for the broken cars, medical payments, property damage, and so on. Great, right? Read more

There’s a guy on X trying to call these tests FUD because he closed his Cybertruck’s frunk lid on his hand and his fingers didn’t get chopped off. It’s hilarious: Read more

Boeing: Whew, we're not in aviation news for once. Read more

That's because Spanfeller sold them off to other companies. Before I left, company data showed Jalopnik to be the most profitable site. There's a non-zero chance the car people will be the last ones standing, bailing out the ship. Read more

Yeah, that was one area where the PT Cruiser did better...and I know that isn’t saying much given how low the bar went. lol Read more

My hot take: The HHR is the better version of the PT Cruiser. Read more

I’m not sure I’ve seen a faster, nor cooler way to die. A stock kei truck has garbage handling, uses your body as a crumple zone, and isn’t built to handle more than a few hamsters’ worth of power. Adding a freaking jet is like spitting in Death’s face. Read more

The Wagoneer is even more phoned-in than you think. It’s literally the same build as last year’s camper, but now in teal with white wheels and with ever so slightly different interior trim. Come on, Jeep! Read more

$290 for 60 months at 0% with a down payment of $500. 2016 was a fun time.
