Even on BAT, the site known for crazy selling prices, there are a ton of NA’s that are as nice with lower miles within shouting distance of this one.

Yea, I am a bit confused about the whole scheme here. It looks like they got hired on real credentials and performed real work, but did it remotely via computers at the address they used. So, the company wasn’t really scammed or anything but was unknowingly paying the North Korean gov for the workers work. With the…

I have a Shell right by my work, so I can stop there on the way. You can link cards so it is more seamless so that is nice. Shell usually isn’t the cheapest, but they have the biggest discounts, so the after rewards $/gal is usually under other stations, but it depends. Are you in MD? Because those are the two…

I refuse to accept the prices that Miata’s bring now. I bought mine sight unseen on eBay for $1,200 about 10 years ago. It had some issues, but after I put a few things on it is was an awesome car for 3 or 4 years. I ended up selling it after my daughter was born for like $2k in 2017.

The new Sequioa is pricey too. My boss has a Capstone, I think it was $86k or so.

This is cool, but the Exige (or an Elise) gets my money 10/10 times over this. Too bad the Exige is approaching “never own one” money territory.

That is what I am wondering, did they actually do work? I mean, I guess they did, but it was just to get money to the country? I guess that part makes sense, not like you can say no to the chosen one himself, right?

Yea, I am in a bit of a special situation where only my votes on ballot questions actually matter. Being in MD, Baltimore specifically, there are only a few races that are even close when it comes to voting. The primaries are more important than general elections here for the most part.

I usually have at least one card that is 5% cash back on gas and one that is 3% all the time. Then I use the upside app to get money off each gallon (range from .01/gal to .15/gallon or more, I just look at cost after discount to pick) at certain stations, mostly shell around me. Sure, I am still locked into a…

I really wish the electoral college wasn’t a thing and my presidential vote actually mattered at all. I was considering not voting this year for lack of care and I have a meeting that day, but I guess I will.

Southwest is sadly bringing picked seats to their airline. Not a change I am excited about as I always just paid the extra $15 or whatever dollars to board in an early group to get my pick of seats and know I had space for my carry on. 

Aware of that, just responding to the comment that the eCVT should last the life of the vehicle. Especially in a Toyota.

No, it comes free with one of my credit cards. I probably wouldn’t pay for it on my own, but once I was made aware that it was available, I signed up immediately.

I mean, it is Chrysler, so that isn’t impossible. Makes in rarer with a factory scratch.

Uhh, yes and no? The top 15 teams (I think) get lotto tickets commiserate with they EoY standings. So the worst team gets the most entries and the 15th team the least. And then they pick the order from that. So out of 100 entries the top team will have like 20 and then the teams have less from there. I don’t know the…

Yea, but state and fed incentives are much more sustainable than OEM ones. State and Feds don’t need to turn a profit to stay in business. And from the looks of a lot of EV’s have at least equal gov to OEM incentives at least and then a lot have more OEM than gov incentives too.

When and how does this naming convention happen/take place? Because right now, their website does not reflect that. If it happens over a few years or at some point on a set date, it is going to be confusing, not that I care. But it seems like an odd choice to me.

That is possible, but there are also gov mandates at play here. I live in a ZEV state, so OEM’s have to sell a certain amount of EV/PHEV’s a year. Some OEM’s have gone the pure compliance route and some have been more aggressive with sales plans and production. But the common factor, is almost all the EV’s need a lot…

Well, if the stories are true, it was pretty much that. Rich Paul (Bron’s good friend and business partner), Bron and Bronny’s agent, actually told other teams that if they drafted Bronny (people thought it was a valid way to get Bron to come to their team) that Clutch sports (Rich Paul’s agency) wouldn’t let any of…

Can confirm that my Highlander Hybrid with a CVT has 292k miles on it and gets driven almost every day. The CVT is a bit laggy, but otherwise it is fine.
