How They Roll: NYT investigates the wheels of Mexican drug cartels {Autoblog}

Dec 16th 2009 9:14PM I'll never understand the conservatives who rail on and on about gov't spending too much helping Americans eat and see a doctor but then have no problem spending horrific amounts of tax money for a "war on drugs" that we'll never win. Or a war on "terror". Or a war on...well, you get my point. I guess if the cause is "moral" then the sky is the limit when it comes to our tax dollars, but if it's for the bare necessities of the American people then screw that.

How They Roll: NYT investigates the wheels of Mexican drug cartels {Autoblog}

Dec 16th 2009 12:27PM "In order to legalize drugs, and not have it destroy our economy, via the social safety net system, is to remove the social safety net."

You really think legalizing dope would destroy our economy and lead to "wilfully destructive people who destroy themselves?" You need to lay off the Reefer Madness. That was fiction you know. We manage to survive legalized alcohol so I imagine we would survive legalized marijuana as well.

Sounds more like a disingenuous ploy to advance an agenda of killing our social systems to me.

Justin Timberlake named new Audi "brand ambassador" {Autoblog}

Dec 16th 2009 11:00AM He's the first spokesman who made me less likely to buy a car.

VIDEO: GM commissions Chevrolet Volt dance to go with song. Yes, really. {Autoblog}

Dec 14th 2009 4:36PM Absolutely stunning. And it makes you wonder whether GM will ever really change. This looks like something right out of a 1983 Citation commercial.

Dec 14th 2009 1:21PM Really? Sex jokes does not good writing make.

Seriously, I'm no prude but this is what's wrong with most prime time TV in the states these days. They think they can take 21 minutes of sexual innuendo and bathroom humor and it's "the most awesome sitcom ever". Meanwhile for those older than 19 and an IQ over 100 it's lazy writing and a kick to the groin. See Idiocracy for more information.

J.D. Power ranks Mercedes-Benz #1 for customer retention {Autoblog}

Dec 14th 2009 10:08AM "I guess people are so brainwashed that they will put up with quite a lot just to park a 3 pointed star in the driveway..."

I don't know if it's brainwashing but people are trained these days to buy brands, not products. You're not buying a car, you're buying a lifestyle that helps define you as a person. Whether the underlying product is good or bad is to some degree irrelevant. Heck, just look at the iPhone and AT&T where in some places it's virtually useless as an actual phone yet people love it. Nobody buys a MB because they need transportation, they buy it because it's a symbol that helps generate the image these buyers want to present, and once you go down that path the chances of you going back to a Corolla or Malibu are pretty slim.

WSJ: Renault pondering return to North America {Autoblog}

Dec 10th 2009 12:16PM Having lived through the eras of Peugeot and Renault here in America I can appreciate French cars for the magnificent pieces of crap they are/were. If Renault wants to try selling cars here again they're going to need to wait until everyone of driving age in 1987 is dead.

REPORT: Chrysler dealers unhappy over new ads, want regional marketing spending restored [w/VIDEO] {Autoblog}

1. Lawyer
2. Politician
3. Marketer/Advertiser

Mad Money host Jim Cramer calls Whitacre 'assassin of the bad' {Autoblog}

Dec 9th 2009 10:18AM I'm pretty sure the Daily Show is a comedy show, not a news show, (that's why it's on Comedy Central, btw) although that's a common mistake as it's usually way more newsworthy than anything on CNN, Fox News or CNN. And if anything, the hit piece on Cramer was more to show how the folks on Wall Street know nothing and are basically throwing darts than to single him out as the only idiot financial genius who had no idea our entire economy was about to implode.

As a side note, the real success on Wall Street comes from the insider deals and backroom trading, not on honest hard work and know how, although I'm sure everyone knows this already by now.

Honda CR-Z brochure leaks out, production specs revealed {Autoblog}

Dec 8th 2009 2:37PM I had a 1984 RX-7 that had 100hp and went 0-60 in about 9.5 seconds. Man that thing was fun to drive. There's a lot more to driving excitement than 0-60 times.
