None of that justifies 5 cops firing 96 times. The criminal penalty for everything you described is not summary execution. Cops aren’t supposed to be executioners.

Remember that it’s not “146 kg more”. Gold has a density of 19.2 g/cc, but iron (let’s assume that the gold replaced iron-based components) has a density of 7.9 g/cc. So the volume of 146 kg of gold is the same as the volume of ~60 kg of iron, so the discrepancy would be 86 kg, not 146.

I know a lot of people are saying it was the hosts and theres no point in rebooting... which is partially true. But I think the bigger thing that is killing these shows is automotive youtube.

It used to be that Top Gear was the only place you could really go to see people doing something really fun with cars. Now there…

But no range anxiety, smaller battery = less weight, which all translates to more fun and less tyre wear (and less road wear).

Oh great. Now the idiots that insist “Herp derp, seatbelts’ll kill ya, better to be ‘thrown clear’!” have video evidence of the exception to prove the rule.

Exactly. Only a dummy is putting $7k down on a leased Nautilus. You should always put down the smallest amount possible on a lease, since if you wreck it tomorrow, you aren’t getting that down payment back.

Also, this

Should Sargent stop sucking so bad, maybe this would not happen. He’s lucky he still has a seat.

The Maverick USED to be standard as a Hybrid, now it’s the option powertrain and you have to pay more.  Still a great value but the turbo motor is now standard.

Man, the sheer sense of ENTITLEMENT. How dare people have enough money to buy Bentleys but not do it? What a bunch of cucks, amirite? It never ceases to amaze when these businesses charge astronomic prices “because that’s what the market will bear” but as soon as that market doesn’t favor them, well clearly there must…

Toyota:

If some idiot is willing to pay it, how can you even argue against it? Don’t like the price? Buy something else, or somewhere else, or wait and take your chances.

I know, it’s awesome they allowed for that option. Honestly I think they probably had to strike a balance between relative affordability (the more they sell, the quicker this platform pays for itself) and profit margins.

Because it is a forced transfer of money from one company to another for no measureable outcome.  

I believe they can design, engineer, and build it, but the question for Ford is whether or not they can build enough of them to meet consumer demand in a timely manner while having a remote semblance of quality control. 

I’d get the Accord.

Feel like Toyota got a lot of hate for their failure to jump straight into EVs. But it always struck me as really the only sensible approach. Maximize hybrid efficiency while investing in PHEV; maximize PHEV while investing in EV (and watch what everyone else is doing); have a reliable, fast-charging, long-lasting EV…

Exactly. It’s RIGHT THERE in the article. He estimated his direct expenses were about $24k but he was actually able to deduct $44k off his gross earnings using the mileage deduction.  $20k is the part of his income he had to pay taxes on.

Only the one wife, and she won’t ride in my vehicles because she can’t smoke or eat or drink. And I don’t have a radio.
