Interesting note: Shorewood is just as white as Whitefish Bay but for whatever reason it gets a pass around here, likely because it isn’t as conservative. All of the north shore suburbs have similar demographics but Fox Point, Bayside, and Mequon are all more white than Whitefish Bay according to City-Data.

The demographics aren’t really any different in Shorewood, the suburb immediately south that sits between Milwaukee and Whitefish Bay, or Fox Point, the suburb immediately north of Whitefish Bay. All of the north shore suburbs pretty much have the same demographics but Whitefish Bay is singled out because you can make…

It’s the second one. Shorewood comes first, then Whitefish Bay.

He went to a third tier law school. It’s a very rough uphill battle to reach a major firm from that level since 80% of what job you get as a younger attorney is directly related to the school you went to first, and your rank second.

I have a glitch that was caused by another failure, but nevertheless seems completely ridiculous.

I don’t understand all of the people talking about passing on the right either. I’ve always understood no passing on the right to refer to two lane roads (single in each direction) where you aren’t allowed to pass a slow moving vehicle on the right, i.e., shoulder, or at the very least as guidance to be careful…

It’s less than 7. The video description says 5.9, which is in line with Volvo’s claim of 5.7 to 60 (5.9 to 62) but I don’t know if that is their official time or if they are just quoting Volvo. While manufacturer times can be a little off, they usually aren’t over a second off. Plus, there are some other videos with…

8 Seconds is inaccurate for the T8. This one shows just under 6 seconds to 62mph:

It isn’t, but children are idiots.

That’s because BMW, for whatever reason, refers to both a single twin scroll turbo and a twin turbo setup as TwinPower. It confuses people, likely intentionally.

It’s a single twin-scroll turbo as the engine is based on the same one in the 35i model (the N55). The older N54 engine was a twin turbo and the newer M3/M4 use a twin turbo setup as well.

The submarine reference speaks to the isolation you get from being inside of a vehicle. Sure, views are great in a convertible or a motorcycle but you don’t have the quiet observation deck type feel when you’re exposed to the elements.

But what I’m saying is that they aren’t charging comparable prices, despite the common assertion. $37K and $44K are not really comparable. The BMW is nearly 20% more expensive. For that extra 20% you can argue that you’re getting a better experience, but that doesn’t mean the prices are comparable as you’re definitely…

I think that’s mostly a myth thanks to the overpriced (and now dead) C30. Sure, the 3 Series and S60 start around the same price but you’re starting at a 180hp 320 vs. a 240hp S60 T5. You can get leather, a moonroof, and navigation on a T5 S60 and still come in slightly under the starting price for a 328i. Once you…

Maserati lists the base price of the 2015 Ghibli as $69,800 in the configurator so it’s even more expensive than what you listed. It’s slightly more expensive than a base A7 and CLS though it’s cheaper than a 6 Series GC.

I think the front end is ugly but for whatever reason that doesn’t hurt the fact that I would deeply, deeply appreciate having one in my garage.

Perhaps it’s regional. I’ve only seen a single Ghibli but see the 6 Series, CLS and A7/S7/RS7 on a fairly regular basis. I’ve even seen more RS7s than Ghiblis. While the Ghibli has been selling in similar numbers as the 6 Series, A7 family and CLS individually, it certainly hasn’t outsold them all combined. For 2014…

I would think a VW looking like an Audi or a Porsche is a good thing. The problem arises when it goes in the other direction....

Wouldn’t it be irrelevant if you don’t actually take the car to Montana? A state trooper from California wouldn’t/couldn’t pull you over and ticket you for violation of a Montana law. Since the car isn’t registered in California the two plate requirement wouldn’t apply either. So it would seem that regardless you’d be…

It actually never mattered when you upgraded your phone. The carriers, at least AT&T/Verizon, still charged you the subsidy even when the contract was completed and you were month-to-month. You wouldn’t see your monthly amount drop even a year after your last contract expired which is why it always made sense to…
