Counterpoint:

I keep hearing people whining about safety concerns but of the 7-9 accidents I passed on the hwy over the last two weeks. One of them had a truck of any kind in it...

Except for new trucks have far less dangerous emissions than from passenger cars from even just a decade ago...

But it begins to be a problem when her opinions are that we should be allowed to make our own decisions on what we drive.

That actually is a big part of the context of this accident... Who know how he would have handled the situation differently if he had a license and you know, when through all the training to get one. Experience go a long way in hoping to keep yourself out of those kind of bad situations.

Yeah, except the civic’s motor is less than 1/3 the size of a corvette... And doesn’t need a transmission that can handle 700hp, and doesn’t have a rear diff...

This is probably the best one in his neighbohood...

What? Have you ever just popped an air bag for fun? Way more entertaining than popping bubble wrap

Do I get to blame this on millennials too? I’ll be damned if they don’t ruin everything!

Nope. You choices are going to be an Edge ST or an Escape RS!

I am a low tiered engineer and could easily afford a $40k car...

Even the Fiesta ST feels like the shifting linkage is held together by a bunch of rubber bands. Most of that is due to all the rubber bushings between all of the shifter parts...

36, married and we pay 2k/year total for a 2015 focus ST, 2014 escape titanium (both full coverage) and a 2004 Lincoln LS V8 (plpd)

This times ten... Often “prime” items can be bought from a vendor without prime for $2-$3 less...

With years of 5-10 smiley faced packages a months, I have only had this happen a couple of times. The last time it definitely showed the normal 2 day delivery time with prime. Turns out they waited 5 business days to ship it, and then 2 days to get here. Both times I called them out on it, they offered me my next item…

Probably because your not that good at it and she know she could do a better job...

The law of technology evolving:

Well coming from living in a major college town with a huge amount of people coming from different states and countries, one thing is glaringly obvious is that people can’t drive themselves any more. Just last week I watched a lady turn left IN TO a roundabout and hit head on with a huge truck (that I don’t know how…

Last year I was in the market for a ST. Checked at a couple of dealers and with incentives and other offers, most of them were offering cars spec’d how I wanted it right around $27k out the door with a $31k sticker price. I ended up going with a 1.5 year old used car with 33k ish miles on it for $19k out the door with…

The reason you know that this ain’t happening is because if “all the dealers” were in cahoots and listing the prices high, then there would be the one cut throat mofo out there that would be undercutting them and selling every car they got while the rest of the overpriced dealers couldn’t sell their cars.
