Ah yes. Privatize the profits. Socialize the losses, but nope, no fascism or socialism here! No siree!

I can’t speak for PA, but my wife and I are in the process of buying our first house and I don’t think we have needed a “wet signature” for ANY documents so far.

I’m 100% with you. The irony here is that many of these same dealers and states who are getting screwed by needing a “wet signature” and struggling to sell cars in this environment are the exact organizations/states who fought Tesla’s dealer/distribution model tooth and nail. To them I say: Adapt or die. Fighting…

Because it is a large amount of money in an industry without a sterling reputation for forthright dealing.

I understand that the 2 most expensive things an average family buys are cars and homes but the fact is that you have to haggle for the price for these just sucks. I don’t haggle with best buy on computers and refrigerators. there is some relationship with haggling over prices and the prices increasing faster than…

Usually I’m scornful of people saying “But MY favourite activity is essential, the lockdown shouldn’t apply to me!”.

I sure hope this pandemic pushes dealers to ditch their sales model. Having a customer go to the dealership before they talk numbers just doesn’t work.

Have you considered something like this?

I want a cupholder that mounts to my headrest and a reach around straw.  So I don’t even have to take my hands off the wheel.

Should have just done a Skype meeting.

Same. I’ve got a couple of decent knives, but none that are going to look great displayed. I’ve got a knife block for the ones that match, so I’m okay with what I’ve got. I still really like the look of that block, even if I don’t need it right now.

that’s depressingly straightforward actually. i kinda feel like the office boomer who clicks and drags the scrollbar now

This is an interesting thought. You'd be surprised how much dirt might end up stuck to it. And it definitely wouldn't work for anyone that works around metal at all, I killed so many Juuls with those stupid magnetic chargers, give me a rubber cover dammit.

Then when you go to get a drink and you have to pull against a strong magnet and the sudden jolt causes your drink to go everywhere.

I would want one, but I could see it annoying the hell out of my wife.

Don’t you mean “hold my champagne”?

I am wanting to know the same thing. I bet $60k :(

So could I buy one of these, dump an old truck cab and bed pulled out of a 50’s/60’s truck on top, and use the vin from the donor truck to register it? Can I have my cool electric rat rod truck mashup mess?

Hold my beer.  Just mount a steering wheel and race it!
