So, I’ve seen this a bunch of times and it stands out as odd to me. But it got me thinking. What would be the official cars of the Gizmodo blogs? (sorry for the bad screengrab)
I would say the following:
Kinja: Pontiac Sunfire (hard to look at, always broken)
Jalopnik: Miata
Gizmodo: Tesla
Deadspin: Honda Odyssey (mostly dads, past their glory)
Jezebel: Hard not to be a sexist ass, so pass.
Kotaku: Scion xB (appeals to nerds who pretend to be Japanese)*
Lifehacker: A modded and ziptied together Tdi that runs on biodiesel (total hack job)
Splinter: A bike as not to support corporate greed/ruin the environment
AV Club: Whatever their mom drives.

I think Jezebel would be a base Lexus. All the blandness of a toyota, but with a little style.

I’m assuming The Root is in the same “not touching that one” category as Jezebel.

Oh, right, that would be a reading comprehension fail.

Even I don’t visit Kotaku much though, it’s not my type of place.
Interesting to see that car anyway, it’s got Haruhi Suzumiya on it.
