This isn’t nearly as egregious as the Toyota Prius/Corolla/Matrix/Vibe 299999 mi/km odometers that just stop - they don’t roll over, they don’t keep counting. They just stop. It doesn’t take a genius to realize that a bunch of reliable Toyotas are going to make it to some crazy high mileages.

It’s not a bug!

Before I get into my long reply, it should be clear that I was referring to all season tires just like satalac was originally discussing. No one here is suggesting keeping your summer tires on your daily winter driver. On a second car? Sure, whatever you want.

Are you suggesting that people who live in areas where it hardly ever snows or even drops below freezing use winter tires, just in case? I think you completely missed satalac’s point.

My brain hurts in trying to read this.

BMW just wants to do it their own way, and I tend to prefer it like that.

In fact, the name of the super star destroyer Executor is indeed not referring to executioners, but to executing control over the galaxy. So it is in fact pronounced ‘eggs-eck-you-tor’ or ‘eggs-eck-you-terr’, not ‘ecks-eh-cue-tor’ or ‘ecks-eh-cue-terr’.

I think pretty much everybody looks back fondly on the blue plate. Also, let’s not forget the “Water Wonderland” and “Water-Winter Wonderland” plates!

It looks French.

To be fair, until maybe 5 years ago pretty much only the Germans had them. They’ve become far more prevalent than they were 10 or 15 years ago.

No, engineers choose the fans for the engines. Duh.

It bugs me that the cockpit and ball turrets look roughly minifig scale, but the interior troop carrier portion definitely does not - even though that appears to just be a result of the humorously stocky minifig shape.

Ah yes, the subtleties of English...

Sounds like that’s not an intrinsic advantage to crossovers though - more like a consequence of current and unfortunate design trends.

They make roof racks and boxes, you know. Not to mention hitch carriers - or trunk racks, for that matter.

So if it’s a UAW thing, does that mean all/only UAW plant assembled vehicles qualify, even if they’re non-domestic makes?

Funny you use the M2 as an example, given that the M2 almost certainly has the fewest options out of any current 4 wheeled BMW (and probably the fewest in a long, long time, too). 

That about sums it up, yup.

This is a really good point.
