Am I on the right website? #WTFITS

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Don't get me wrong, the video is catchy, but it seems out of place for Jalopnik.

Jezebel covers truck driving now? That's awesome!

I thought it was a pretty rad post.

Cars, car culture and driving are all equal opportunity things.

What's the problem here?

It's more like Someone Got Some ROYGBIV in Your Jalopnik. Kat is contributing to Jalopnik now.

The only Taylor Swift I want to hear is her death groan....... " plays Entombed's Left Hand Path"

I'm confused, what makes this "Jezebel" to you? Because there are ladies involved?

Yeah, I prefer to keep my Taylor Swift (and Taylor Swift covers) allotment at zero.

But it's the weekend, it's tough to get any real content.

God forbid the people who do 50% of the driving and car buying in this country have an opinion or are included in its culture. *sarcasm*

it's a post about a singing truck driver, did you not read or watch the video?

Just making an observation, not a judgement.

"WTFITS" is a bit of a judgement.

I was under the impression that the author is on staff at Jezebel.

Touche.. I am surprised because this article seems out of character for jalopnik, not that there's anything wrong with it, just didn't expect it here.

Yeah, I'm still not seeing why this is an issue. If you're trying to be funny, it's falling very flat.

It's a nice vid but not Jalopnik worthy - Kat's made great posts about her car and driving in Japan (which is probably what got her Jalop authorship) hopefully she does more like those!

A couple weeks ago there was a video of Swedish Marines lip syncing to Greased Lightening...

It's a slow Sunday... I see nothing wrong with it. There's been a post about the Swedish Marines who did a lip sync for Greased Lightening, so this fits in fine.

Missed that one. Link?

Yes, and she's also a long-time Opponaut. So, um...yeah. It's more like Jezebel got some Jalopnik in it.

It looks like it was posted on Foxtrotalpha, but I'm pretty sure it was shared to the front page. Also, Jezebel covered it back in January when the video first came out.

Haven't seen that post but can tell it wouldn't fit either - look at it this way, replace truck driver with any other profession and it's simply a vid of a girl who is making work fun. It's not much to do with Jalopnik at all even in truck driver mode. There's a huge variety of articles here but it's just not got the substance to be on Jalopnik, but Oppo sure. I mean look at this or this

Ehh,it was funny.I don't really care much for Trailer Swift though,which is why I was done @ about 30 seconds in on the original post of trucker girl lip synching.

She is a Jezebel writer, she is also an Oppo and Jalopnik writer on the side. She has penned several interesting stories.
