Jason Torchinsky

@techthisoutnews Wait, what?

@JasonTorchinsky we don't know you Jason but SHAME ON you. Don't even know you but now we do. Reach me direct 310.722.3150 on standby Jason TORCHinsky

@vard_57 This is accurate.

It is @JasonTorchinsky

I know someone that likes Beatles a lot

@garygastelu @EXPOSSIVE @SpeedSportLife @the_autopian @FordAuthority I've never seen that happen but now I'm curious! Report back with your findings, please

@JasonTorchinsky @EXPOSSIVE @SpeedSportLife @the_autopian @FordAuthority Do people ever combine lox and tuna? Can you mix fish on a sandwich? I think I have found a new purpose in life

So that $30k Ford EV truck we spotted? A reader pointed out there was a QR code in the camo wrap. Here's what that reveals: theautopian.com/the-30000-ford…

@EXPOSSIVE @garygastelu @SpeedSportLife @the_autopian @FordAuthority only if L stands for lox

@JasonTorchinsky @garygastelu @SpeedSportLife @the_autopian @FordAuthority Ah Jason, still remember you during our Jalopnik days together back when Wert was in charge. Just admit that you and Tracy orchestrated this with Ford, take the L, and move along.

@garygastelu @EXPOSSIVE @SpeedSportLife @the_autopian @FordAuthority Absolutely. Gary, it was tuna. But I cut up some olives and mixed those in, Duke's mayo, some mustard. All on a croissant. Sublime! Oh, and there was also a roast beef and brie sandwich, on pumpernickel. I guess it has been a full week!

@JasonTorchinsky @EXPOSSIVE @SpeedSportLife @the_autopian @FordAuthority I need to hear more about this presumably delicious sandwich

@EXPOSSIVE @SpeedSportLife @the_autopian @FordAuthority @garygastelu Set up what? I haven't set up anything more complicated than a sandwich all week.

@SpeedSportLife @the_autopian @FordAuthority @garygastelu Ask Torchinsky, who set this up. I have endless stories that I'd be happy to share 😈 Endless. I'll give Alex the first shot, though 😉

@the_autopian What? Why does no one run these by me first?

Did it ever get better than this at Volkswagen?

@chewcudda @the_autopian Remind me to tell my McScat Cat story one day

@the_autopian When did MC Scat Cat join Autopian?

Our normal social editor is on vacation, which means I have taken over and will be using Paula Abdul GIFs until someone stops me (there's no one to stop me).

@petrany Thank you thank you! It’s lovely!

I would like to wish @JasonTorchinsky a very, very happy birthday indeed, with these casual phone shots of a two-tone.

@ActionRetro1 @chewcudda known issue

@JasonTorchinsky @chewcudda Good because the toiled in my jeep barely worked at all!

Anyone fancy trading a working car for an SGI or two? Somewhat related to previous posts of a smoking Jeep…

@chewcudda @ActionRetro1 I have a whole RV I’d trade! Some parts of it work, like the toilet!

@ActionRetro1 @JasonTorchinsky would give the computers a good home. The "working car" depends on your definition. 😁

So, @ChexMix, thoughts? theautopian.com/what-cars-equa…

@PluginHyBrad I'll be honest, I'm not really sure why you're mad here but if any of your readers want to experience the decadent joys of a press trip, send 'em over!

@JasonTorchinsky Completely irrelevant

"ONE OF OUR READERS PAID US FOR THE PRIVILEGE OF DOING OUR JOB FOR US, WE SENT HIM TO TEST A NEW CAR ON OUR BEHALF, DIDN'T TELL HIM WHAT TO EXPECT, AND THEN LAUGHED AT HIM FOR BEING UNPREPARED!!!! HAHAHA, ISN'T THAT GREAT??? THANK GOD WE'RE NOT WOKE, LMAO." What the fuck?

@PluginHyBrad @WookieDrives @_baldtires Were they giggling at the time?

@JasonTorchinsky @WookieDrives @_baldtires People who work there have said that to us directly. On multiple occasions.

@PluginHyBrad Not to him!

@PluginHyBrad @WookieDrives @_baldtires We have never called ourselves that.

@WookieDrives @_baldtires The site that calls themselves “un-woke Jalopnik” sent a reader on a press trip. They didn’t tell him what to expect so he packed his own helmet and rented a car to get from the airport. Then basically called him dumb for not knowing.

@adrianfclarke Holy crap! Also note how they made the reverse lamps into indicators!

You know when you're driving to work and you see a street spot so incongruous you immediately pull over to take a picture? That. WHAT. IS. THIS. THING. DOING. HERE.

Consider this a response to anyone who feels my work lacks real gravity theautopian.com/its-imperative…

I know I talk about this a lot, but the truth is simply that @MercedesBenz did not "invent" the car. This time, I dig a bit into the early gasoline car era and find that yes, the truth is a lot more muddy. theautopian.com/mercedes-benz-…
