I saw one of those the other day by my house. So weird... And doubly amusing that they left the Mercedes logo on the hubcaps.

But you know you can change gears manually!

Gah! I thought Europe was my safe space! I’m feeling attacked!

Likely just North America not getting a manual. Its stupid because the Golf R gets a 6mt but the S3 which is basically the same car with a different body and interior only gets DSG. Because luxury or something...

What a weird identity crisis that car is! The front screams BMW, the back says Volvo. The side is just sorta generic. I know very little about Skoda, but are all their cars like that?

So much this. But only if they gave it the correct amount of pedals (3, naturally). But this being post-2015 Audi, its a choice of Automatic or nothing else...

Cool story. Overreact much?

Does an upgraded rear swaybar count? Adding one to the rear of my A4 made such a massive difference in handling. 

Oh its absolutely a solvable problem. But Police departments are far too busy buying siege equipment and military gear to solve mundane shit like video storage. Particularly when, more often than not, the bodycam footage will be used to show their negligence rather than the other way around.

Salespeople don’t need to know the laws to do their jobs though. Thats why dealers have Finance departments to, you know, push numbers around. If a salesperson cannot (or will not) give you a quote for an item on the lot, thats a failure on his part.

My good friend who is a DA says thats one of the main reasons. That footage needs to be stored, categorized, sorted, etc and kept for a LOOOOONG time. And multiply each shift for each officer across each department, and have proper security and ecryption for all that in perpetuity, its a total cluster. I mean private…

Connecticut, one of America’s Strategic Wealth Preserves

The definition of “home” has become VERY flexible of late, what with the preponderance of homelessness and the pandemic...

What, pray tell, has Portland become?? Because I have plenty of friends who live there and love it, despite it, you know, “burning to the ground” as I’m sure you believe...

A Fiat being a FCA product is enough reason for most rational people to NOT buy one...

A basic stage 1 tune won’t affect the MPG or the reliability much tbh.

I want to believe this happened in Florida and a multitude of drugs were involved...

How does the same company that designed the Telluride design this pile of creases, pointy bits and fake vents. Yeesh...

Hell, even the seat occupancy sensor triggering nobody in the seat and disabling the car is a start.
