I rarely side with automakers or dealers, but damn these owners suck and just need to deal with it. This is literally how every consumer product works. Unless there was a contract or documentation stating these would never be made again... too fucking bad? This is what you get for overpaying for stupid vehicles.

I think he correctly guesses that the person asking him questions barely knew he was or cared what he was doing. If I did the interview it would have just been all Paddington 2 related 

But if you’re making shit money, maybe you shouldn’t be buying the average new car.

tbh, it might not really be a zoomer thing. if you’re young and making shitty money and the average price of a new car is like $40K, then there you go.

Heh heh. Nice.

Call me uppity, but $92K gets me this? The hard black plastic and chintzy control nobs scream Chevy Cruise.

Interstate 5, between SoCal and the Bay.  I’ve been doing it my whole life and just tired of it.  I grew to hate it even more when I moved to the Central Valley. It is long and straight and people drive like asshats.

This road through Manytowns, USA

I76 through the Philly area. The Schuylkill Expressway otherwise known as the Surekill Expressway. Random traffic jams at all hours of the day and the weekends. 

Hold on pardner - there is an element of personal responsibility you are missing. It aint my job to feed ya.............just let that trucker pass through your area as we need that cargo a movin. What you do to eat or breath is your problem.........MURICA!!!!!!!!!! - Thats the current state of Republican thinking!

Which of course, they don’t care about. The same people who worship the Mighty Dollar now would’ve opposed the abolition of slavery because it would make cotton plantations less profitable.

I am work at a truck OEM in the engine and aftertreatment development group. Not sure what you mean by the first change in 20 years for emissions? We have been through several major emissions changes including 2007, 2010, 2013, 2017, 2021, and are ramping towards 2024 with the split of EPA and CARB/Omnibus. There has…

heh. that header image is 10 minutes from where i live. the highway is 20 lanes wide in that spot, and always congested.

Last emission restriction since 2001? Well, I am in the engine and aftertreatment department in an OEM, I guess every big change that has happened in 2007, 2010, 2013, 2017 and 2021 as well as the interyear adjustment were my imagination.

They’re going to have a very hard time shaking their reputation.

this. I actually worked on the model3 and model Y. My name can be found on parts released in their PLM system and I’ve been in the tent to build these cars at launch, but I will never own a Tesla for this reason.

You’re not missing out. My spouse drives a Model S and it’s insanely shit quality. The materials and build feel awful, on par with some $25k econobox, but this thing cost over $100k.

But you get Porsche brand name on the shell and the tent. The ability to broadcast to your surroundings that you’re in a Porsche is worth the $3.5k lol.

Porsche Branded Rooftop tent. Looks like a roofnest with a new shell and a 100% markup

$35 for a game like this, that can potentially offer hundreds of hours of playtime, is a fucking bargain.
