only really worse on gas due to ride height and drag. larger wheels and tires can actually increase highway fuel economy in some instances. think about it from a physics standpoint, you are increasing the size of the final gear.

i didn’t know any better. it was my first time driving on snow ;^)

got caught in an unexpected snow storm in the mountains and 5-0 was mandating snow tires, chains, or 4wd/AWD to drive down. Didn’t want to get stranded on a sunday so I managed to convince the policeman that my BRZ was AWD. “Yeah its a subaru, officer.”

one of my previous cars had a geartronic transmission (shiftable auto) and i convinced my gf that it was more like a manual than an auto and that she wouldn’t be able to drive it.

i would hope that the people at cadillac were so traumatized by the 90s that they never even consider making another traverse engine, FWD caddy ever again

did your entire personality come from internet culture circa 2011?

i spent most of the last 20 years living in san diego. i wonder if you go to the chula vista costco every weekend what your odds are of seeing rey mysterio in street clothes and not having known it. you would just look like a shorter than average mexican dude with typical vato tats.

i dated a girl once who had such a sensitive clitoris that she COULD NOT engage in oral sex. full stop. she orgasmed from intercourse just fine. my point is its weirdly reverse puritanical and stupid to get hung up on the way other couples do it when its really none of our business.

calling bs because i am a reasonably conventionally attractive and sexually active male and i will literally fuck anybody.

yeah except those depictions of batman were shit. in the most celebrated depictions of batman he basically never jokes, unlike superman who is the god of dad jokes.

Reliable - fun to drive - practical - “nice”: Altezza/Lexus IS300 can be had in that price range all day long. and its got a 2jz yo! Only “problem” is these are not at all unique nowadays and manuals are hard to find. On the bright side they are amongst the most reliable cars ever made and are not old enough that you…

This is why its important to have people of color at your work/school/social functions because i know a bunch of white people would have just bobbed their heads and let this bullshit stand until it slowly soaked into people’s skin and brains because it went unchallenged.

i don’t think you can ever claim someone with only one MVP award was the GOAT, sorry.

at Live Aid Queen made every other band (the most successful group of musicians ever assembled) look like a bunch of fucking nerd and posers in comparison

the top solo artists would easily be Elvis and Michael Jackson in a landslide.

if you are REALLY really good at downshifting you can do this with little to no extra wear on the synchros or the clutch, but most people aren’t that good. engine braking is really more of a big deal if you live in the mountains and go down hill a lot, needing to preserve your breaks. that said its a lot simpler to…
