Thanks! :D

Yeah, no. It is made abundantly clear during the booking process that you should use the same legal name that is on your passport. Abundantly clear. If you're just lazily filling in information for an international flight with the same care as filling out information for your supermarket rewards membership, I can't…

When I was a kid I had a poster of a Caterham on my bedroom wall. A few months ago I finally bought one, so now it would just be the photo I took of MY Caterham!

At least your mistake wasn't out of pure stupidity. I'm glad they fixed yours without charging you up the wazoo.

I have ZERO sympathy for any grown adult that thinks using anything other than your actual name to book a flight is a good idea. This is a case of an idiot paying the price for being an idiot, which is something that doesn’t happen enough these days. I suppose they paid a pretty steep price for their idiocy, but I…

“Police maintain that they were doing their job despite the fact no one should be condemned to death for a traffic violation.”

I actually am such a pessimist that I actively went looking for footage from inside the plane just so I could make an angry comment about all of the idiots trying to grab their luggage. Turns out I forgot that it’s just us Americans that are so stupid/self-centered/materialistic.

To be fair, this sounds more like some wacky CANBUS issue. Vehicles these days run EVERYTHING over their internal network. I remember reading about an F-150 that had a corroded CANBUS connector in the tail light housing and it caused a MYRIAD of problems very similar to what I’m reading here. Everything from…

It's so true that it has become the focus of an award-winning prime-time TV show. I'd say that is considered "talking about it."

That lift-off oversteer is a bitch ;)

Yay, twice as many swirls!

I fully realize they are entering the American market. I toured their factory and have been seriously considering a Plus Four when it is available stateside. I’m not sure what that has to do with my comment. Just because they’ve decided they can sell some cars here doesn’t mean every concept or model they put out is…

So fun fact: Morgan is a British company. And in Britain, you don’t need to drive 150 miles to find fun, small, twisty country roads. They aren’t building vehicles aimed at the American market, although the Plus Four is something I would buy in a fucking heartbeat here.

That’s not how power works. It doesn’t just evaporate.

It doesn’t matter how the speed limit was set when things have changed so much. Here in Chicago the speed limit on most highways is 55 MPH, but good luck doing that speed and NOT eventually chasing a collision given that outside of rush hour, traffic typically flows between 70 and 90 MPH. I drove my Caterham into the…

I’d argue that we should instead actually teach people how to drive, instead of handing out driver’s licenses like free candy.

But that’ll never happen, so maybe a happy medium would be banning right-on-red in city centers. There aren’t enough pedestrians in our car-centric suburban neighborhoods to, in my opinion,…

Yeah I should have worded that differently. All I meant was that they are ALWAYS paying attention, not SOMETIMES, and always to the degree that the designers deemed safe (in other words always focused on not hitting things to the same degree!)

“If you live in a municipality that allows driverless car testing, you may already be accustomed to taking your life in your hands every time you have to Frogger your way through a crosswalk.”

That old Camry is still taller ;)

The 2025 Forester compared to the one you have pictured is: 8 inches longer, 4 inches wider, 5 inches taller. It's not a BIG change, but those numbers add up to a much larger vehicle. 5 inches in height doesn't sound like much until you picture putting a 5 inch lift on a random vehicle.
