maybe @jeff wants to add a Google Drive integration to this channel so it sends links to new news docs here?

working on it

@jeff shared a file: https://burbbble.slack.com/files/U0844M8N9/F08454REK/newspractice

Did I do good?

cooool. Did that happen automagically?

Yeah I had to aprove the integration then just post the doc link in the chat

Im wondering if it will automatically push new docs?

hmmmm, not sure

BMW, Merc, Porsche, Audi, Mazda, Aston, JLR, Volvo, Subaru, Nissan, FCA, Ford, Lexus, Toyota, Mazda are all the RSS feeds I have entered into feedly right now

NICE

GM, Honda/Acura, VW/Bentley,Bugatti/Lamborghini, Kia/Hyundai, Mitsubishi are ones I still need to find/add to the feed

Plus individual feeds for sub brands of auto groups as needed

Can you guys post any ideas for other news sources you can think of? Other automakers, plus any source you think would be good to have that isnt necessarily an automaker

Scion

I'll give it some thought for sure!

Debating weather or not to add other auto news sites just to keep an eye on what they're posting and jump on their news bandwagons

seems like what a lot of other sources do?

Yeah, for example, someone will find a video on reddit or something and post it on Jalopnik, then it will all of a sudden be posted there, R&T, C&D, Autoblog, Automobile mag, Top Gear, etc.

Tesla

TVR

Morgan

Lotus

"Have you always wanted to drive a classic Land Rover but can only afford a measly first generagtion Ford Escape? Good news! Land Rover now considers the Freelander 1 a heritage vehicle. You're a quick badge-swap away from all your hopes and dreams."

very much

why would they do that. You'd think they would want people to forget it existed….not celebrate it

But it was "successful"

what are some examples of other cars that were pure junk that sold well?

VW Beetle

Toytoa Camery

Camry

hmmm…not what I was going for. Those are actually decent cars in my mind

please feel free to post anything here that you think might go well as a news story on our site throughout the day. It doesn't mean we have to post it, but then it would give me something else to go through besides the feedly feed every evening.

Isn't the NYIAS this week? or is that next?

this weekend and next week

@chris: you should write a news article on the Miata RF for tomorrow morning. Test your news skilz

Okay :)

Got any good ideas for news, guys?

porsche came out with a $6,500 office chair

maybe audi makes an office chair for $5400

shop around

Mazda article is too old to have at the top of our site : ( We need a more frequent stream

You guys see anything in the news today?

Which is better for news?

Everyone else did the Audi one today. I don't know if anyone cared about the ford one. but we might find a funny angle

Not as many stickers? That's something

That supra is going to look a little flashy outside my early bird special

I'm not old, I still think supras are cool

That supra, isn't, however

Also, where are the cambered wheels?

when are they adding the dual exhuast?

Why are those tires so thick?

Those thick tires would look good outside my early bird special

Is there a joke here? -.- I'm just thinking about eggs benedict

Haha

No, I'm exhausted. It's all I had for old people

All I'm thinking is that mom and dad just left for dinner

We should ask 'em if I can sleepover when they get back

Ah... the good old days

Nah, too risky

Nissan is buying 34% of Mitsubishi if anyone wants to photoshop a Nissan logo on an evo and write a news article on it. Story is on http://autonews.com

So we are leaving on thur... When?

Since most cars are only in use by their owner for 5% to 10% of the day...

Haha

Isn't everyone using their car at the same time? Number is just a little skewed

I think he's saying everyone needs it at rush hour except for people who are too poor to buy a tesla (who probably don't have jobs and therefore can rent an autonomous Uber tesla in the middle of the day.)

I'll dons write up on this tonight. I want to get back into doing more regular news

I like it

put all the poor people in the cars that drive themselves

Then they aren't driving around in rusted up Dodge Intrepids

Ha. Oops

Reasonable.

Needs Muscle Milk Livery

Those open wheel wells make me happy

Can Bentley make a comeback too?

They should go back to LMP1 in WEC.

Heck, why don't all of VAG's brands go into LMP1?
