on
Jalopnik (203) permalink
The odometer on Bret Boyd's big brown 1987 GMC rolled over to show all zeros recently. It was just another routine day in the same vehicle he's been behind the wheel of for his 22 years — as a UPS driver in East Texas. During that time the truck has reportedly gone through at least three engines and been repainted the same number of times, though we suppose it's hard not to lose count.

New Honda Insight Hybrid Revealed, Expected $18,500 Price Tag To Make It World's Cheapest [2010 Honda Insight] (2)
on
Jalopnik (203) permalink
Honda pulled a fast one on us and gave its new Prius-killer a crazy dusted-off name — the 2010 Honda Insight. While certainly not creative, the intent behind this vehicle is. At an expected price tag of $18,500, the new Honda Insight is expected to compete at a much lower price point than any other hybrid on the market. Although it's only a "concept" version, we're told we should expect the final version to show ...Shared by Erik C. Thauvin (37) Fourbin (17)Contribute comment -

Filed under: Video, Internet ToolsA while back we noted that Amazon was planning to bring its video on demand service to the Mac. Well, it looks like they've finally flipped the switch because the service is now live. Much like iTunes, they're selling TV shows as well as offering movies for purchase and rent. Unlike iTunes, it's a streaming rather than a download service. Fortunately, they've got a number of free videos which will give ...Shared by Baturalp Torun (3) Bozric (10) CannonGod (226) chip (24) Chris (15) Elroy (22) Erik J.

These bloody hand and foot wrist rests aren't meant to taunt your co-workers with adolescent slasher film humor.
