LA Times' Dan Neil bumped from NBC Gear {Autoblog}
Apr 10th 2008 2:55PM Dan is an idiot... Tanner is a dork... this is doomed. Anyone who reads Dan's HWY 1 every Wednesday in the LA Times knows that the socio-political commentary overshadows what he writes about actual cars. He's been trying to cast himself as the Yank Jeremy Clarkson, except he just comes off as a bitter hack. Thank god for Autoblog so real journos get a chance, instead of those with "the most circulation".

"Well, at least he drives a Prius" puts the bad taste into unofficial ads {Autoblog Green}
Mar 4th 2008 2:33PM I have a buddy who's girlfriend just bought a Prius. I asked if her car was recyclable and she laughed. Same thing she did when she realized that a VW TDI driven flat out gets better mileage!
