I delivered pizza for a bit back in college. Most people are jerks and don’t tip if they are by themselves. The worst was when I delivered a pizza to an apartment complex near Ithaca airport from the Commons. Normally it’s about a 10 minute drive but with a frigging blizzard it took me 45 minutes and another 10

S2000, duh. I would say especially the AP1, although I have an AP2. Prices for decent examples have been going up. That and combined with Honda’s ability to underwhelm (ie. CRZ, new NSX) means that they literally won’t ever make another car like this. Maybe they’ll make a new one but it’s going to be like the NSX

It’s just insane how many shiny full size trucks I see in the SF Bay area with empty beds. The only ones with stuff in it are PG&E work trucks and old Japanese compact trucks with loads of gear on them. I think most of the guys that need them are just waiting to buy second hand trucks when the new gen comes out.

Ha ha ha. Yeah, I guess I’d be pissed too if someone said the same for vans. Still waiting for my first van purchase. Can’t wait to get an Odyssey.

Hmm, sorry didn’t mean to sound so serious. I was just channeling my inner 17 year old. I had my mom’s Accord in high school, which I named Amy. Then my wife told me her Camry was mine when we got a new car. I’ve had these things foisted on me twice in my short life. It’s like non car lovers shitting on my choices.

I think people didn’t pay it much attention because what’s the point? They’re probably not going to build it or they will serious screw up the lines when it’s in production. OR they might just trot this thing out to every auto show from now until 2020, build it, and the upstaged by production ready concept from Ford.

Couldn’t agree with you more. By the way, your uncle can blame the other “farmers” I see in the Fresno area with slammed Harley F150 garage queens. You’ll find most of them hanging out by the golf course after cashing checks from their almonds complaining about having to share water with the fish.

There’s no way anybody bought one because they want it. I’ve never met anyone who couldn’t wait to get the keys to one and neither can you. It’s definitely a rational choice. If they couldn’t wait it’s because it’s their only transportation and ticket to freedom from the high school cafeteria.

I think he’s making a point that there’s never going to be the Camry/Accord in the truck market because nobody buys a truck because they need one. Trust me, nobody wants a Camry/Accord but they are the best selling sedans for a reason. Hell, I’m driving my wife’s Camry that she got from her mom because nobody wants it

You forgot the part where Sampson says, “And we’re going to make Mexico pay for it”.

Does the suit work if the astronaut’s weight fluctuates? I’d imagine people losing weight during spaceflights due to their mood, crappy food, no gravity, etc.

Yeah but I’m of the mindset that you don’t shit on other people just because you have no spine to fix the problem yourself. It makes no sense to make yourself feel better by crapping on others. Ultimately this comes from the top and most CEOs are puppets that spew business catchphrases.

Yeah couldn’t agree more. I can’t handle these buttons. I always hit the “MODE” button and it switches from my sweet jazz station to the CD player.

Why not just take public transit? Lots of fun stuff to do in the city and the subways are convenient. Just park at the bus stop and you can sleep on the bus too.

I think you made it better. I would buy this.

Would’ve been another $329 off if you deleted one of the side view mirrors. That used to be an option, not sure if companies still do that.

How did he find people dumb enough to help him out? If he was my friend I would’ve just said you’re a moron.

Yeah it’s definitely an afterthought. I was just amused that everybody blames design decisions on the engineers. Designers say we make them compromise because our design is bad. Systems think we’re lazy because we can’t meet their contradiction requirements. Management thinks we’re lazy and wasteful because we can’t

If you’re telling someone to move to Europe you should figure out where they live. Also why wouldn’t an American media company hire European correspondents? Comes in handy for European press events. At this point I can’t tell if you’re being ironic.

Dude the 90’s Trans Am were really ugly. My friend’s sister had one and it looked so bad even he didn’t want it when it was his turn to inherit the car. Mate’s making the same point that this blog makes about old Fiats and Alfas. 90’s was all about the Japanese sports cars in American and there’s nothing wrong with
