I bet a somewhat significant factor is the lack of humidity. Saw way more badass cars than I’d expect in Lubbock for that same reason 

“Amazon bought nearly 20 percent of a cargo logistics company called ATSG for $131 million in March, 2021. ATSG operates multiple airline subsidiaries, one of which, Omni Air International, moves human beings for the federal government.”

I presume she advocates for immigrants named Jesus obtain firearm licenses, all the while providing subsidized childcare for his newborns.

Subaru styling in a nutshell.

I must say, the more I look at the new one, the better I like the prior gen

Maybe it’s a Hail Mary attempt to stanch the torrent of absolutely deserved ill will Rory unleashed yesterday with his now-deleted, utterly fucking tone-deaf, pissy little bitch comment yesterday.

Make them the same price as ICE and they will be. They aren’t even close today. The payback over time is too slow as well.

Sure, but a new diesel bus costs 90K-200K$ and used busses can cost 7K$. EV Buses cost 400K$ now a pop. The problem is the not so well off districts who can’t afford to absorb those costs even if the private companies cut it in half.
