When friends and family ask me for advice for what car they should buy. I give them several really good, interesting options. Then, they ignore those choices and end up buying a Camry.

As someone who loves aviation, I am sympathetic and wouldn’t mind living next door to this so long as the owner doesn’t mind me peeking in the windows at the cockpit almost daily. That being said, I do see the neighbors’ perspective as well. I don’t live too far away from a house that has all sorts of junked cars…
The two that are missing in my book are:
When I see that picture at the top of the article, I either think Kellyanne is about to use dark side force lightning or she’s describing to someone how Turmp came toward her when they were alone in the Oval Office.
Shouldn’t a clean WRX be on this list?
There has to be a badly out-of-balance wheel as well.
. . . “why cars may employ firearms against one another: you can kill a car if you shoot the small human inside.”
The problem with trying to compete with the Wrangler, IMHO, is that nostalgia for the Wrangler provides sales that it otherwise wouldn’t have. The Wrangler is a barely compromised off-road vehicle. For its off-road capabilities (at an affordable price point), Wrangler owners put up with awful ergonomics, lots of…
As a motorcyclist, I’ve learned to count to three after the light turns green and look in the crossing-traffic directions before going. I may need to up the count to five after watching these videos.
Two things:
Your list of Christmas songs that need to go away permanently is woefully incomplete. Missing are:
We had a similar parking lot - reserved for the seniors. The juniors had to park in another parking lot that was further away and down a pretty big hill. When I was a junior (1993-1994), my parents bought a 1987 Renault Alliance convertible (the GTA “sporty” model) so that I could drive me and my brothers to/from…
Yes, but this would be mechanical failure, not hooning or crashing.
I think that’s the equivalent of driving slowly in the left lane...
You’re missing another important distinction that hurts the elevator-as-vehicle argument. There is no way to hoon or crash an elevator. OK, I take back the hooning part - you can hoon an elevator by jumping up and down while inside to watch it bounce on its cables.
I didn’t suggest using the laws to protect a bad business model. My point is only that there is potentially an issue with allowing direct sales in the sense that an existing manufacturer with an established dealer network could theoretically circumvent its contractual obligations to those dealers by starting a “new”…
Hopefully, anyone who cares about the rule of law will care about this. Again, I have no problem with Tesla selling cars directly. Part of that reason is that Tesla has never been involved in a dealership model. My only concern is the precedent it sets for existing manufacturers to potentially have a way to…
I don’t think there is a downside to manufacturers selling direct to consumers per se. I also don’t disagree with your point that a lot of dealerships make the purchasing process unpleasant. However, let’s avoid the pros/cons of the car dealership sales model for a moment and assume that it is a valid means of…
To clarify, when I’m riding, I have my index and middle finger resting on top of and kind-of overhanging the brake lever; I am not squeezing it at all.
