Jalopnik:Kohl's Is Selling a T-Shirt with a Truck on It That Could Inspire Fights and Riots

Absolutely sickening. I hope someone got fired for that blunder
I did not even realize there are people who'd care about this
Who on slow news days apparently writes utter dribble like this article. My criticism does not ignore their purpose or existence, it just ridicules the nature of the post.
it's a tongue in cheek article about cars(trucks whatever) on a blog dedicated to talking about cars. Relax.
Fair enough, its just funny that of all things that can trigger car fans, its dismissing a ford as something unreliable as a chevy.
You're posting on a gaming forum... Have you not seen how triggered and worked up console fanboys get?
I tend to ignore the repeat offenders entirely, but I get your point.
I mean it is funny, that's the point. But I don't think you should expect much serious journalism, much less about a subject as important as civil rights, from a car blog.
The article is a bit of a joke based in some reality sure, but no one is seriously going to get up in arms about some crappy shirt sold at a department store(except for as noted above maybe General Motors for the possibility that their copyright was infringed).
Never had a Jeep/Dodge not start on me. I've had a Jeep's tranny go, but it never left me stranded. Can't say that for a Ford or Chevy...hell two 4Runners in the family have had issues just starting up before.
My favorite part about older Chevys (and maybe Fords? I know Jeep did this too) is when they'd throw whatever part on they had around at the factory. So if you've got to get a replacement for a certain model/year and it came from that era, you might not even know what the hell you need because it could vary by what they had on hand that day at the plant.
Toyota is still GOAT though.
Oddly enough, someone will probably be fired for it and a licensing lawsuit lol
Grew up in metro Detroit. Remember being in early elementary school and a kid asking me which I liked better, Chevy or Ford. My father did not (at the time) work for any of the big three and I didn't give two shits, but the majority of the kids in that school had a father that worked in the industry.
In some parts of the country, if you throw rocks at a truck you're likely to be staring down the business end of a sawed off shotgun. Some truck people be cray cray
