Thanks to Gary Larson, I will forever write CAT FUD on my shopping lists...

lol, the “You wouldn’t download a car” ad was more successful.

When a part on my parent’s 20+ years old Kenmore oven broke, my siblings suggested we just buy a new oven from Best Buy cause Samsung ovens were on sale. I said we just buy the replacement part because does anyone know of a Samsung oven lasting 20 years? or even 10?

The three models listed in the Digital Trends article all include apps, so they’re not just disk players. They’re also set-top boxes.

How is wanting to use a built in application like Netflix or Hulu moronic? Until just recently that's the only device my parents had available to use these services. 

By definition, “operating cost” should include everything needed to complete a flight (fuel, maintenance, engine programs, crew, etc). The contractors would be part of the crew cost, and it’s safe to say these drone pilots aren’t being paid the same rate as an A340 bizjet pilot.

They say that nobody wants to see how the sausage gets made. I’ve seen it (and made it), and let me tell you, it ain’t that bad. On How It’s Made, a TV show that delivers exactly what it promises, the audience is shown the sausage and just about everything else.

But Roombas are woefully underpowered outwitting the likes of local Sith Lords, so there is a give and take both ways.

Why do we even have HOAs?

This seems to have less clean up than my usual method.

Eh, the fluid and brake changes alone would amount close to the total cost displayed here.
Let’s see: 30 dollar oil change every 10k: 1200$
Transmission fluid change 60$ (?) every 30k: 800$
Brake pads and rotors every 40k at about 600$: 6000$
Tires, at about 600$ every 40k: 6000$
Brake fluid bleeding every 40k at 100$:…

Tesla should really have bought it back from them at the end. It would be an excellent study for their engineers to see how everything has held up over time and miles. 

You could, but not many people would want to pay for a towncar service that showed up in a clapped-out Escort. ;)

Let’s compare this to the amount of money I spent on my 1992 Explorer between 180,000 and 200,000 miles

“Charge port doors have a lot of issues,” Sonnad told me. “We’ve had a lot of replacements on those. I think almost every car has gone through at least like, two,” going on to say that the main issue is that people manually close the doors. “They break because, I guess, they’re not designed to be manually pushed…

Wow! No oil changes, trans fluid flushes, coolant flushes, lubrications, or any standard maintenance! It’s too good to be true! ...probably because it is and either you’re lying, your dad is lying, or this truck is the holy grail of ICE vehicles.

I think one of the big things is that you have a lot of staunch EV advocates showing up going “there’s no maintenance!”

This is actually a surprisingly short (and cheap) list for an early year model of vehicle from a young car company, and a car that is loaded with weird/exotic features and complex designs.

Saw this a few years ago in Tacoma. Never thought I'd see another.
