The Onion reports DOT creating new lane for reckless drivers {Autoblog}
Mar 13th 2008 1:38PM Um, no by "reckless driver" they're talking about you. Yeah, people driving too slow are frustrating I'll absolutely give you that, but there is absolutely no excuse for tailgating - it's flat out obnoxious and juvenile, not to mention dangerous. Honestly, have did you take high school physics? No matter how amazing your brakes are, it's impossible for you not to rear-end someone if you're following close enough to do a rectal exam.
Hecha en Argentina: First official drawing of VW's new pickup {Autoblog}
Mar 10th 2008 6:40PM You have no idea what you're talking about. "Hecho/a" is the past participle, not the 3rd person singular (which would be "hace"). Past participle agrees with the gender of the noun.

Chicago 2008: Volkswagen unveils the newish Routan minivan {Autoblog}
Feb 6th 2008 3:30PM If VW really wanted in on the minivan market (and I'm not sure why they do) I think their money would've been better spent building an American version of the Touran with the 2.0FTSI standard (and an optional 2.0TDI) and marketing it as a competitor to the Mazda5.
That said, given what they had to work with, I think they did a decent job. The interior looks a lot better than the Caravan/T&C, but still below par for VW.
New reports of Lincoln going global {Autoblog}
Feb 1st 2008 1:38PM "we're not sure if those are just Town Cars and Navigators destined for limousine service"
Lincoln's line-up in the Middle East is slightly different country-to-country, but the MKZ, MKX, Town Car, and Navigator are sold in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, the UAE, Kuwait, and Qatar. Jordan and Oman don't get the Town Car, Yemen only gets the Navigator, and Lebanon/Syria don't get Lincoln at all.
