well, just wait for the inevitable skyrocketing of accident reports from states where maintenance and inspection are options, because those are the lands where cars with inoperable tail lights go to die. Accidents due to fog will zip up, too.

Ahem.....

You can’t tell from the pose? Someone photoshopped Kendall Jenner’s head onto a photo of a barbie doll.

Ah, the inertnets, where people overreact at the mention of damage to a... Jaguar or GTR. Or are you one of those weird pervs that overreacts to the idea of a Silverado getting minor damage?

Wow. Opening stance: “When most people start wrenching, they typically choose a cheap, mechanically simple and well-understood car for their first project. A Mini or a Beetle or maybe an old Jeep.”

For you Jason, I will coin a replacement for “Slow news day?” That replacement should be....

So silly, Torch. Obviously, this is a safety feature. This so so all the sidewalk hookers can clearly see who is driving the “rich dude’s car” and assess whether it is an actual customer or a serial killer.

Unfortunately, here in the US, it actually does represent everywhere, or have you been pulling a Rip van Winkle and missed the many reports indicating at least 4 of 5 bridges in this country are structurally deficient? And it isn’t just bridges. In my own neighborhood, there are two separate small streams crossed by…

With all the rust, I don’t think anyone can be absolutely positive any of your vehicles are actually hard to the touch.

In other words, his 30 MPG vehicle has been getting 20 MPG the entire time the device has been installed, so he can use all that saved 10 MPG at a later date when he needs it.

Many years ago (1986), Marvel had a major criminal meeting at a nameless bar, where a... vigilante known as “Scourge of the Underworld” killed most of the attendees. And we’ve seen similar behavior by criminals in various Batman comics and shows. And let’s not forget the TV concept of “cop bars”. So, the idea of a bar…

Problem here is most commenters are unaware of how complex this seemingly simple task of moving fuel from pipeline to truck actually is, because it is a task that occurs simultaneously to multiple trucks at thousands of locations around the clock. AND at those thousands of transfer points, there is an interconnection…

This leads me to a bizarre bit of curiosity.... how many accidents has Waymo suffer autonomously vs. human backup driver? I know there have been two highly publicized accidents in the past with one being fatal, but I don’t recall if they placed blame on the programming or the on board human driver.

Hidden moral of the story.... The writers get paid by the word. Their bosses (the editors) get paid by the word written by every writer under them. Thus explaining why David can only afford decades old rusted out Jeep hulks while his boss can afford a Lexus.

On a side note, the US has already suffered two major, deferred maintenance bridge collapses along interstates - the fairly recent collapse in Minneapolis AND the collapse of a bridge on I-95 in Connecticut back in the 1980's. A big, unrecognized part of the problem is insufficient qualified staffing to do the…

What gets me is they haven’t once talked about trying to partially unload the ship. They’ve got those wide, flat expanses of beach — I mean, desert sand - that they can just stack the containers on, and just get another ship (empty)to load them on and get them to at least the end of the canal. Seriously, after all the…

“Its white! Well, now there is a lot of black and orange, too. But I swear there isn’t a Philadelphia Flyers logo anywhere to be seen!”

They do this to everybody attempting to withdraw over the ATM limit without writing a check out to themselves.

You overlook the fact that the number of cars being made has drastically shrunk the last few years, even though there are still consumers for them. That means a stagnant used supply in regular circulation, with fewer newer vehicles flowing into the cycle. So yeah, prices are going up, but it really doesn’t have much…

Transmissions are still garbage though, as they’ve been the entire time Ford made the Taurus.
