As a delivery driver, the thing that sucks the most is that nice, normally tipping people decide they don’t want to make us drive in bad weather, so they come pick up their order instead. Meanwhile, no-tipping a-holes come out of the woodwork because they don’t care, and won’t drive in bad weather. Net effect is you

Also loads of trucks with a 15 year old spare still under the truck that the gears to lower it are rusted shut, plus the tire is dryrotted, hasn’t ever has any air put in it and the wheel is rusted out.

Spotted a no plate, that’s nothing compared to what a NC Sheriff can spot. I once got pulled over for having an expired 10 day temp tag. Expiration date is hand printed by the title clerk in the corner of the plate. Sheriff managed to see that as he passed me in the opposite direction with the speed differential being

and probably ban class actions.

I was sick for about a week earlier this year. To pass the time, I started watching movies from my James Bond Collectors DVD set. Unfortunately, about 1/2 of them stopped working about 1/2 way though the movie (I’m assuming where they jump to the second layer on the DVD.) These are well cared for, always in their

Virginia requires you to pay a yearly $500 fee for the privilege of driving with no insurance.

Asshole cop one time threatened to charge me with racing because I was following my manager to the bank to make the nightly deposit.

New Hampshire.  Also, many scofflaws get insurance long enough to get their plates, then cancel next month.

Blackmail never ends.  It’s 25k this time.

Car rental prices are sky high right now, and if everyone is trying to rent one for Thanksgiving or Christmas there is no way the rental companies are going to keep enough cars on hand to meet that demand, just like the recharging stations aren’t going to have enough capacity on the same holidays if everyone is

And how else would an electric water pump fail?   Of course it just stops working.  The computer not letting the engine starts keeps it from destroying itself.

Hybrids have most the advantage listed in your first point.  EVs still need tires and suspension work.

I listen to a radio show every day. Host’s wife has a Ford Mach-E. They have driven it in their home state for over a year, and until this week he had pretty glowing reviews for it. Thanksgiving week he finally took it on a long trip - 800 miles to Mississippi. His tune has changed about EV ownership. It took them an

While I can’t point to the study, I did hear this month that ride share drivers that used fast charging almost exclusively were having trouble with their batteries failing much sooner than drivers who only fast charged occasionally.

We had a new apartment complex built behind our store, the changed the streets entirely. They basically re-routed a street (that no longer went anywhere but another business parking lot) so it combined with our driveway, and threw a stop sign there since now it was technically a street. It only took a week, and

Yeah, that’s going to be a bid ND for me. I bought a newer Hemi Ram 1500 a couple of years ago for less money, I tow a much bigger boat with it and I basically hardly know it’s back there.

I saw some sort of electric VW crossover yesterday. Half of it’s red LED VW emblem on the back was illuminated, the other half wasn’t. That screams great quality electrics to me /s.

Yes, because they have parking problems there.  So once you have eaten and leave, you’re no longer a customer.  There is no grace period.

Objection: Rain, Sleet, Snow, Ice, Cold, Heat.

I’m guessing the have signs stating parking for Wendy’s customers only, when tow truck goon saw him leave the premises that meant he was no longer a Wendy’s customer and he was free to tow.
