You left out the fact that the US has essentially been on the losing end of trade imbalances since the middle of WW2, especially once you factor in that even the “good years” were deficit years because the “trade boom” was the result of restrictions on spending US military and foreign aid (i.e., we’ll give you this…

All I have to say about the Polaris CEO appropriately whining so he can live up to his last name is... Sure, you invested in manufacturing and payroll in the US. But you’re still complaining about the high costs of parts coming from China. So clearly you’ve either invested in the wrong fashion or invested…

That makes me really wonder.... Why hasn’t someone figured out yet to make a car stupidly fast and then give it a face that looks like a complete idiot running down the road. Then they can advertise it like “You can literally see how stupid fast this car is.” :D

Here I am, thinking “awesome open air museum concept! How much are the tickets?” only to find out it is no such thing.  But... just imagine how many more cars would be on the property if they were selling tickets, eh?

Well, something is up at jaguar. “shared mobility” is not something people who can afford a Jag have any interest in. Exclusivity floats their boats.

Interesting how Russia tried to bury news of this crash involving the first new commercial passenger jet design the nation has produced since the end of the USSR. First it was one fatality, then 13, and now stands at 41. The plane has an abysmal service record - at least one incident or crash per year since 2013, and…

I just want to know... Did the person who decided the paint scheme for that car in the opening photo intentionally rip off the Constructicons?

That 5th gear with the lithium is just nonsense. There is more to mining lithium than just digging a random hole in the ground. The lithium has to be there to begin with and that and quite a few of the rare earth elements make up the mere handful of resources the US does not have any sort of abundance of.

Once you’ve got four YEARS of restoration work done on your vehicle, it should be in working order, too.

Well, that was a surprise. That firefox security certificate bug that killed most of my plugins apparently killed my browser audio support as well.

LOL. Problem I see is summed up in the following quote from the article: “Eleven years ago we were all wondering if a controversial actor like Robert Downey Jr. playing a B-tier Marvel character like Iron Man—and who cared about Iron Man, of all superheroes, in those days?”

Ditto! Every new release they make offers precisely NOTHING I need to do any sort of photo or video editing. Matter of fact, I grabbed Creative Suite when they were offering it as a free giveaway download like half a decade ago as a “just in case” measure in case the potential nightmare they had on the horizon turned…

“Or are we talking about the noble invasion of Iraq, on a known lie about yellowcake and because of 9/11, despite most of the 9/11 terrorists being Saudi and Iraq having nothing to do with it?”

“From a NATO perspective a war not warranted by NATO is an illegal war. Hence, this was an illegal war.”

.... Slidell, Louisiana? So we can expect so see coverage in one of their “earlier in” or “crime of the week” segments on Live PD?

Ahhhh.... Today is a day of weird thoughts for me... I wonder if a house’s value would drop by 50% if you moved it off the lot the way a car does. :D

I think I need a few of that decal for my vehicles, too.

I am always amused to see people missing the obvious. People aren’t buying new cars because the Obama administration murdered the used car market with that whole “cash for clunkers” thing. In a nation where a substantial portion of the populace doesn’t have the money for the down payment of a financed car purchase, no…

I just want to point something out. I read the following:

Just consider the unintended punishment he will have to endure for whatever remains of his military career - for here forward, he will always be asked the question : “do you think Captain America would have ever shirked his duty to go watch a movie?” And once he moved on to the civilian sector, the question changes to…
