A few hundred dollars for a flight? Count yourselves lucky. I just paid $5500 for flights, so my wife and I could spend christmas with the inlaws. No, that's not business class, it's the cheapest tickets I could get over the christmas/new year peak season...
Supply and demand.
It's a little more than a "trim level" if it has a different body, too.
Maybach is a valuable brand. Last time around, they positioned it at the top of the hierarchy, presenting Maybach like a separate carmaker, with an M where the three-pointed star used to be. Now they've moved it much further down the hierarchy;…
We call this "Three stooges syndrome".
If crashing into your property, driving the wrong way down a one-way &c are a problem, perhaps we could enforce those laws, instead of lying to all drivers in the hope that the lies will move some of the bad drivers to a different neighbourhood. Where, of course, your supposed dangerous driving ceases to be a problem…
Wait, what? The government is supposed to protect you from other people who want to use the public resource next to your house because you'd quite like to keep it from yourself and stop anyone else enjoying it?
Perhaps you could explain where you got this definition of "government". Governments are supposed to provide…
Well, if we're going to make this about ethics - and arguments on the internet should never be about ethics - then lying is probably a Bad Thing. Specifically, a coordinated and intentional pack of lies to prevent other people enjoying a public resource which you currently have to yourself is a Bad Thing.

A cheap classic car isn't an investment; it's a hobby. The purchase price is just the start. You'll be spending lots of weekends, and lots of money, on its care and feeding. Be realistic about this.
Anyway. Earlier this week, I bid on this:
It's fine, as long as you know your limits. I went on a rally with my dad when he was 78, and I daresay Jenner is much fitter.
I topped off the interior detail with a brand new OEM illuminated shit knob
Yeah; what do NATO know about geopolitics?
Try more cars. Try different cars. Challenge your assumptions, because they might be wrong and you'll have to live with the results for years.
Buying the first car you test-drive is like marrying the first person you sleep with. Well, it might make you happy in the long term, but your chances of happiness are much…
Is anybody else here actually bidding on something in this auction? You can sign up online, on i-bidder. There's nothing I'm really desperate to buy, just putting in a couple of low bids and hoping my wife doesn't find out until it's a done deal...
Collecting cars after auctions like these can be a bit of a headache,…
escorting itself at low-level deep into enemy territory to strike targets with its on-board laser designator
Old picture, alas. These days it's probably uneconomical for airlines to tote two tonnes of car instead of just 100kg of passenger and a suitcase.
Carvair.
A few Russian tanks have certainly rolled into the Ukraine. And the USAF is definitely not shooting at them.
