The Maserati he received:

Also, ‘Silicone Valley’ should be Silicon Valley. Silicone Valley would be Simi Valley.

I have deep misgivings about the realism of the fungus people, too!

Why not both?

The economic crisis hit in 2008 during the election cycle. The bailout started during the Bush administration, and was carried out by Obama after he took office in January 2009. Both parties agreed it was the best solution at the time.

What do you mean “that kind of money”??? This is cheap for a new car today, and has a cheaper starting price than a Ford Escape! I would argue this is a bargain if it is even remotely “luxurious” considering it is Escape money. A BMW x1 starts at $39k so I think you are a little out of touch with what realistic car…

You can TASTE the contempt. I love it.

Burnout in healthcare (and a bunch of other professions - first responders and teachers for example) is real, rampant, and horrific. Yes, that leads to suicide on occasion, which is also horrific. And we can talk about suicide and what it does to your loved ones all day long, and I think that there’s nothing easy about…

I can see Genesis competing at the level of the Lexus LC, perhaps even a little bit above that… but at $300,000? At least Cadillac has the pedigree of once upon a time actually being the “standard of the world”. Genesis has no such pedigree. Not saying they wouldn’t sell any, but I would imagine we are taking about ver…

Too bad. That show was fire.

My 993 is worth more than a new car, and I happily paid a little more so I can can listen to my music and sort through my songs without having to pick up my phone. It’s nice to be able to take a roadtrip and have a GPS that isn’t suction cupped to my windshield.

Eat shit.

Now you’ve pissed off Scott Satellite .

Right? I can’t get on board with the Lexus or Integra take.

What’s wrong with Lexus?  Them lasting forever a big problem for enthusiasts or something?

How else are you supposed to get the bottom clean?

There needs to be a tiered drivers license system in the US. The “walk into the DMV” tier of license should get you something 2800 lbs max, 150 hp max and no power steering. Anything faster or heavier needs some amount of hours of professional instruction.

50/50 chance the Ram 2500 buyer came in drunk.

I’m reaching way back here, but I actually remember a post in the same vein specifically about Kia dealers not knowing how to sell the Stinger because it was... good. If I’m not mistaken, there was a story about the dealer refusing cash in favor of bad financing.

The worst part is that he seems completely obsessed with Markle. If you don’t like her for any reason, that’s fine, just keep it to yourself, fucking let it be, and stop thinking about her so much like some sort of perv. It’s weird as hell that an old white man is obsessing over a young woman and making statements…

In six months Teslas have gone from status symbols to the automotive equivalent of MAGA hats. It’s astonishing; I’ve never seen any brand lose so much goodwill for such a stupid reason before.
