All the reasonable features above and absolutely no door dings (ever)? Nice Price all day.

I know of a cooler one ...

The main con for me is 2wd. It’s not like a tracker is tossable, so if it’s no good off road and it’s no good on road, it’s kind of just a novelty.

I like to think that now the donor 2015 Camaro is out there rocking the 272,000-mile 1.6-liter G16 four that made only 97 HP.

If you ever drove an SSR, you’d understand.  They make no sense until you drive one. 

and they have 60,000+ vehicles parked waiting for chips 

While I naturally agree on the central theme, a couple of points that I found myself pondering while reading this. First, has there really been that much criticism, at least my main stream sports media, about Biles’s decision to withdraw? At least the major sites I follow have reported it as a shocking decision, which…

The banks *definitely* care.

How? Americans are absolutely stupid with money. As in the shitty little houses in my neighborhood are now selling for over a million bucks. How people are affording that? Probably same as always: Maxing themselves to the hilt in debt.

The definition of worthwhile changes depending on your credit score.

Don’t get me wrong, I totally understand not putting yourself in serious danger when you’re not mentally up for it, especially with some of the things she tries. But what I’m trying to say is that you can’t have your cake and eat it too - whatever the reasons, you can’t withdraw (for whatever the reason) and then…

the US would remain firmly in silver medal scoring position which has been treated like a loss in the sports world.

Yeah, I’m thrown off by how everyone seems to be saying , “GREAT! This is fantastic news!” It is not fantastic news. It sucks for her teammates, it sucks for the people who could have gone in her place, and quitting mid-competition is really not something to celebrate. We can be compassionate about the decision, but…

I don’t see this as progress. Her experience as a high profile elite gymnast would be very different from a lesser known gymnast trying to do the same thing. There’s more leeway when you’re more famous. Regardless, if you know you’re not going to do a good job in a performance, for sure her team will want her to opt…

Can we find some more nuanced way of discussing this? Can we acknowledge that it is important and right for Biles to look after her mental and physical health, while also acknowledging that what happened to day was not, in fact, “worth celebrating?” It is unfortunate that she was unable to complete the competition and…

I would argue that if she dominates the individual event two days after sitting out the team event, that will not help her legacy.

It’s complicated, because I just can’t square the two ideas that 1) she can withdraw from the competition for her own totally valid mental health reasons and 2) she can still be the “greatest.”

Shameless plug of the best two solution. <not pictured: ‘19 Outback, ‘88 F150>

“We should have been more precise in our language around the Delica and ‘mini-trucks,’ but regardless, the underlying statute is what is being followed.””

Wow. U-Haul got expensive. Last time I rented one was 10 years ago, but I think it was 125$ a day.
