I was basically in this guy’s situation (didn’t need AWD) and I ended up getting a “new” (i.e. never sold 2018 model) Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio. So far with only a month of daily driving, it has been reliable and it makes sounds that send every C63s running with their tailpipes between their tires. The infotainmen…

The issue isn’t merely taxing the wealthy, but making corporations pay for the resources they use (roads, bridges, airports, ports). Similarly, the government must reinvest that money back into infrastructure to support those businesses. At the top income bracket taxes should be a punitive means of encouraging people…

Good news your opportunity to join them is quickly approaching. Pull you investments now and wait for the a much larger recession to hit that will be compounded by the RMB becoming worth less than monopoly money. You can then reinvest and drive to the mailbox in a Bugatti when the whole mess stabilizes in a couple…

The Pentagon is looking at this Area 51 thing as a recruiting event. Anyone stupid enough to cross into the area, they arrest and send to the Marines. People that hang around to watch people cross the line, they send to the Air Force to pilot drones. The ones who can’t even bring themselves to leave their RVs, they…

I see like a dozen of these everyday in the Silicon Valley. They aren’t as common as the Honda abomination, but they do their best to foul up the visual landscape. I’m not sure why Toyota had to make them so ugly, but nonetheless they are fairly common. My local Chevron station has a hydrogen fueling pump for them.

Not to put too fine of a point on this but, do know how much money America makes selling real weapons and ammo overseas? North of $80 billion a year. It’s not surprising some of these companies also have crappy working conditions.

Only David gave a reasonable answer... I mean the car needs to be able sit for a while and start when he gets back from a flight.

Not bad for a High School band, they’ve got the whole repetitive refrain thing going that is supposed to lock the song in your head and a simple melody that people can easily remember. They need something a bit more bright in the bridge as that should be the highlight of the song. Still it looks like a good…

Seeing how many accidents there are on my short (6-7mile) commute every morning, (there hasn’t been one morning without at least one accident in 6 months), I think I would take whatever would protect me from side and rear impacts the best. If I could get 20 of those Jeep Raptors to surround me and protect me from the…

I highly doubt China would get any sanctions for its actions in Hong Kong or Xinjiang. The Uyghur issue has been going on for a long time and the camps started back in 2014 with barely a murmur from the world community. China has always been given leeway because of its current economic benefit and fear of its long…

Yes, well, History isn’t very original.

China wasn’t going to hit emission target regardless of the trade war, because they have consistently lied and over represented their expenditure on green technology. This is well known and not a surprise.

There are a couple of bugs in the game that made it neigh on impossible to play if you ran into them. The first is playing with another player who is a much higher level. The game kind of splits the difference in level between the two of you, but doesn’t level the lower level person up. This gets worse as it doesn’t…

Audi A3 Final Edition:

We just need Bruce Willis to drive one in a movie again.

That orange juice is going to be nasty, unless they also refrigerating those wells. Also Bacardi, Bailey’s, Beer and Orange Juice? That sounds like a recipe for projectile vomiting.

Hopefully no one was hurt, but I expect there are going to be a lot of these with these Corvettes selling for 60-70k.

I have a speed bump on my street that is so tall I have to cross over to the left hand side where it is lower. Yet almost every morning some IDIOT (idle dolt in other transportation) will stop in front speed bump going in the other direction forcing me to scrape over the high side of the bump. I swear one of these…

The game is so bad, it’s not worth getting mad about them adding micro-transactions. Sure the Steam description for their gold details that it will be used for in-game boosts, but it’s not like anyone is replaying this game. This game just reeks of something the devs didn’t want to make, so don’t be mad, just play…

I’ll be honest your friend’s advise is the advise I would generally give, however I have an S5 Sportback on the way... so I hope my advise was bad. As for leasing, leasing makes sense if the cost of the lease is significantly less than loan payments and Audi didn’t have lease deals for the S5/RS5 that would have saved…
