I work for a big foreign OEM. There aren’t even whisperings of layoffs - just doubling down on new tech, cost down projects, and adapting to the future market. Our cars are manufactured in the US and are more US made than some Ford/GM products.

Neutral: The US just broke the record for dividend payouts and yet still can’t seem to keep afloat without cutting their workforce. Automation and Electrification are easy scapegoats, but the reality is corporate America’s priorities don’t lie with the company itself, but with shortsighted profits for their investors.

Why is it always fire some folks? Why can’t it be the top 100 executives take a 10% pay cut? Mike and Dave in customer service aren’t responsible for a 4% decrease in gross margin, but you know who is? Fucking Kevin, VP of the fucknut division who axed the focus and fiesta.

Im going to be the classic nitpicking Porsche fanboi,

So cost per mile might be cheaper for personal ownership, but especially in the case of SF, I’m guessing they didn’t take into account the cost of storing said car.  My friend who lives in an apartment there spends a few hundred a month to even park his car in the apartment garage.  Home costs are through the roof,…

You are correct. And that’s why I support Ferrari. There is no virtue in supporting a runaway winner like Mercedes, let alone their sandbagging and whining tactics about not being fast. Wolff is a Professor Fate from The Great Race.

The same way they were “unwittingly” behind the economy collapsing in 2008.

North Korea was reportedly violating U.S. law by using American banks to unwittingly pay for “maintenance, equipment, and improvements” to the ship.

They forgot the shifter.

You are SO right.

I have it reported, by several credible news outlets, that you’re a fucking idiot.

Honestly curious, is your ignorance a result of intelligence, or do you just like sticking your head in the sand?

Yes, I have found three corroborating reports for this and updated. Thanks for the comment. 

“Correct me if I’m wrong, but it seems most if not all of the Giulia Quad’s issues seem to be rooted in software glitches, not component/manufacturing defects. “

Cue all the people who bought one saying they haven’t had any issues and every bad word about an Alfa is just a giant conspiracy 

And people wonder why Alfa reliability jokes are still funny.  They’ll stop being funny...when they stop being true.

He literally owns a custom motorcycle company. One that started simply for the enthusiasm of it. At least that’s my take.

Bingo.

Starting a bike without holding the clutch in.  I didn’t know Keanu had a part in Risky Business.

Watching this made me feel like he’s an active piece of motorcycle culture; as opposed to Rich Guy Throwing Money At Vanity Project.
