Or in this case, quality machining.

You clearly have polar issues.

You lead me to that conclusion

Um heat kills lead-acid car batteries not cold. It just shows up in the more current demanding conditions of winter. Furthermore batteries are just plain made better and last longer these days. Lastly it’s been more than cold enough for weak batteries to fail. 

Low turnover means less supply, but it would also mean less demand. What we’re seeing here is other costs (employment, facilities, advertising) becoming a higher cost per unit sold as they are not affected (immediately) by a drop in volume.

Yes, surely it’s a supply side issue and not a demand side issue causing producers to make less money because they’re selling less volume. That has nothing to do with it I’m sure.

It’s too bad that batteries aren’t free of charge.

Seriously? Those are the frequencies we use for wifi routers.

I like big cars and I can not lie
You other brothers can’t deny
That when a sedan rolls by with an itty bitty waist
And a round thing in your face
You get sprung, want to pull up tough
‘Cause you notice that trunk was stuffed
Like the 22's she’s wearing
I’m hooked and I can’t stop staring
Oh baby, I want to cruise wit’cha

This is why you make the big bucks Tom. SEDANS4LYFE

There is nothing wrong with liking bigger cars. Bigger cars are generally more comfortable for cruising in style. If someone has the gall to ask why you like big cars ask why they like sleeping in a bed...they will say “because it’s comfortable” to which your response is “Well, there you go.”

And it has Stinger missiles behind the headlights.

I had this conversation with someone who used to work at a Tesla approved body shop (which was also a certified body shop for other makes). According to him, while the established brands had tons of information on how to tear down/rebuild a car, Tesla had nothing....as if they figured out how to build the car but…

You don’t repair consumer electronics, you replace them. Sheesh people.

I don’t know if I would be more terrified of the flaming fuel or the spray of the “mystery water” windshield cleaner that went flying after the first impact.

Now he has a real good reason to be away from the pump as much as possible

Most shitty drivers don’t know they’re shitty drivers if the antics of the geriatric population of my almost rural town is any indication.

Or: Why do broke people sign up for stuff that gives them money? /s

Why do shitty drivers sign up for a job that requires nothing but driving?

Dude (somewhat ironically) fueling his Prius was like NOPE NOPE NOPE
