Have you used the Mercedeses that watch your face? They have to have had them for at least 4 years or so.

You must be a riot at your hate rallies.

No, it would be illegal for the dealerships to hire permanent replacements for the mechanics. You’re thinking of the Cadillac dealership where the mechanics walked out but were never formally unionized. They are the ones who said the mechanics could reapply for their individual jobs but it is unrelated to the…

after wasting my life as a card carrying member of a teamsters local i have every right to be anti union. all they did was cater to my shops management and routinely said fuck you to the employees. i just also happen to be anti-dealer so seeing both burn would be a good outcome for me. these mechanics are already…

Forgot to mention, presumably the dealers would be just as much at fault here as the mechanics’ union for taking part in the individual negotiations. Fault on both sides, as I see it.

Those figures are including fuel costs - I.e. total cost for mileage in the Lincoln would’ve been ~$70,000 inc fuel and maintenance. In the Tesla it’s just maintenance costs, as the Tesla gets free supercharging.

We’ve not had a news story about a detective pulling a biker over, failing to identify himself, going in gun drawn, who was only deescalated by the rider doing everything in his power to avoid getting shot since...

I love this idea because that means I should be able to track the location of every police car in my area. Hello next gen radar detector.

Methinks you give car salespeople too much credit for being decent people...

This is the internet in 2017, it’s never too soon.

Fourth, if the “officer” starts acting oddly when you ask to see his ID — threatening you, behaving in a non-professional manner, pounding on your door, etc. — seriously consider putting the car in gear and getting out of there.

It’s so true. I am atheist but raised Catholic and I have found saying you are atheist makes them try harder. But saying you are Catholic, everyone (Evangelicals, Mormons, etc) just basically give up immediately, so as soon as anyone tries to get me to go to church with them, I just say I’m Catholic.

He sounds like a shitty doctor, but I have read that some people have elevated blood pressure when they’re at the doctor’s office or a medical facility because they are nervous about that sort of thing.

You mean the guys with jacked up trucks ALL OVER THE NEWS that were travelling from all over Houston to rescue people, ease boats into deep water and take supplies to folks?

Not all of new orleans saw water in katrina—and a lot of people parked their cars in garages. I had a friend who parked her ‘98 civic at the NO airport garage, came back six months later, swapped the battery, added fresh gas and it started right up.

The problem is the three things affected most by the flood are the most expensive to replace: The electrical system, the interior and the transmission. It’ll be cheaper to buy a new car than to replace those three things, which is why the insurance company writes them off as a total loss. Furthermore the unemployed…

The Sub-Prime car loan thing is getting out of hand. 80% of people’s cars in Houston are underwater.

the government should allow VW to give them all cheating diesels... at this point it would be kind of a F U to mother nature.

death note was localized, no?

We live in a world where Kylie Jenner, whose personality is comprised of wigs and plastic lips, is the supreme influencer of our youth. Being interesting is really not necessary.
