The US has a beef with everyone now because we don’t need any of them. Since WW2 we’ve allowed people to have great deals with us because they let us police the world and they gave us cheap energy. We don’t need cheap energy anymore because we have fracking. We have a military magnitudes larger than the rest of the…

But we already have a one-sided imbalance with Canada. The message isn’t trade equality, it should be tariff equity. Zero tariff, zero subsidy, and zero trade barriers with G7 nations. Free and fair trade. However, there is a concern—rightfully—that anyone doing business with China already is at a disadvantage for a…

God, I hope this is the case, but I hope even more so that cooler heads on both sides prevail. If Trump is looking for an example where the US can take a bloody nose to curb stomp an opponent, Canada certainly fits the bill (I.E. punitive US tariffs would wreck Canadian industry), but it still seems in poor taste to…

Someone failed to make their protection payment. Gotta set an example or else the rest of the world will think you’re weak and try to take advantage.

The most American car is the answer;

Would you settle for a video of me chasing a ‘65 GT350 around Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch? (He got back around me after the tape ran out.)

Congratulations, Mr. AtLeastItsBlue, on COTD! I would like to gift you with a Mutang Shelby GT350 which this lovely lady will deliver with no import tariff.

Tell AtLeastItsBlue that Ford hasn’t stopped selling small cars in Europe, tons of Ford Fiestas and Focuses are sold in Europe.

“what’s more chickenshit than fuckin’ with a man’s automobile?”

Wow, you were an asshole. Do you still do this? I really hope not. That’s some ignorant shit, like this entire article.

It’s exactly the same. There are very few high density urban areas, if any, that have both a large percentage of pickups on the road and traffic density problems. I live in one of the worst traffic areas in the country. Removing pickups won’t make a dent. Mass transit, better infrastructure, ride share, etc, are…

Yep everyone is so cool in their Prius until it’s time to move, buy that stupid thing at Costco, get furniture, new dryer, the awesome desk at a yard sale for cheap or whatever other thing your real life requires. I hope if you have any friends and any of them are actually awesome enough to own a truck they tell you…

Long story kinda short: decades ago I was stationed on the east coast, and witnessed a fellow sailor throw his trash in my 1984 Toyota’s bed. As a hospital corpsman, I got my revenge by making sure the trash thrower was up to date on all of his immunizations....administered by our clinic’s newest corpsman who had yet…

That’s why you always install a gun rack on your truck. It keeps down the bullshit, even if you are a hippie tree hugging pacifist.

This exactly. People take such exception to trucks not being used to capacity every minute or every mile. But someone commuting in a sports car and taking it to the track 4 times a year? Totally ok. It’s the same fucking thing!

Your parents must have proud of their self-righteous little tyrant.

You mean they should have something in their beds 100% of the time? Even true work trucks aren’t always working.

Yeah, very much a dick move. When I owned a compact pickup, people would do that to me.

That’s just gonna end up on the ground. You’re just littering with more steps

That’s kind of a dick move. I did it once, but only because it was some asshole outside of a laundromat who tossed his trash on the ground on his way out. I thought a better place would be the bed of his truck.
