Update: It turns out Kanye bought this Mauck in 2023, so my article was correct that it didn’t originally have any star connection. Fascinating that he didn’t even own it for a whole year... Read more

What’s wild to me is that this is the bus/RV/limo thing that literally started my career at Jalopnik. I wrote about this exact coach as my first-ever article here nearly four years ago!! Read more

The wild thing is that he didn’t need to do any of this. If your pilot license gets taken from you there’s usually just a 1-year waiting period before you can apply to get it back. Seriously, even Trevor Jacobs, the jerk who intentionally crashed his plane for clicks, was eligible to apply for his license again after… Read more

Oh thank heavens it’s not me. I was about to throw my computer mouse out of the window. Hey, Erin, does this place even have developers left? Read more

Don’t worry, he’ll see his couch and all will be ok again. Read more

In fairness to the Smart, the only place anyone ever saw “ED” was in publications or in forums. In official documentation and on the car itself it always read “Electric Drive.” With that said, Smart USA did a terrible job with marketing, so I’m not sure most Americans even knew there was an electric Smart. EDs were… Read more

I’m indeed very well aware how deep the anti-Tesla biased reporting has descended to...

They’re saying that StalePhish is a Tesla shill, not Jalopnik. They rarely say anything negative about Tesla... Read more

Nah, he’s just what railroaders call a “foamer,” or someone who loves trains so much that they basically foam at the mouth upon seeing one. Read more

The part that gets me is the logic that the “stress” of not being able to fly first class with a dog gave her cancer. Read more

Always read the source story: Read more

“The Drive looked into not only Massachusetts’ ban on kei cars, but the organization that seems to be backing these bans in multiple states: The American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators, which appears to be the source of some of the ban language.” Read more

“What people think of as the South, or the middle of nowhere, is really just 30 miles outside of any major city”.

Oh fuck off. The NWS explained what’s going on. It’s just a weird quirk of climate report data, not actual snow. It's not like they went on TV and reported a damn snowstorm during a heatwave. I’m sorry you’re not firing on enough cylinders to understand that. Read more

I don’t understand this strategy of just stopping doing everything because Trump got shot. Read more

BASEBALL-sized? I think I just heard my cars outside shudder at the mention of that hail. Read more

It wasn’t snow. The real source of this story is the NWS, which says that hail shows up in its climate reports as frozen precip. Apparently, the reports don’t differentiate between the kinds of frozen precip, so hail ends up as a “trace” of snow. Of course, a weather reporter isn’t going to say it snowed in Philly…

105 degrees, eh? So you’re saying these geysers are forbidden hot tubs... Read more

I’m not sure why the original source didn’t report it, but the plea is nothing special. From a quick search of Colorado’s DOT sites, it looks like after 20 days your ticket is punted to the court. You get one last chance to avoid going to court by agreeing to pay the fine plus possible additional costs. Of course, you… Read more
