He owns a Tesla Model X LR+.

It’s a 2-lane 1-way road and Google street view shows the lanes are clearly marked with solid lines for going different directions several hundred yards before they actually diverge. I’m not sure why a car on Autopilot shouldn’t be able to stay in one lane or the other but he car shouldn’t be crossing solid lines…

double wrap in plastic, then aluminum foil. then freeze.

“Yeah, keep your eyes on the road, your hand upon the wheel"

When you start plumbing the depths of 20 year old beaters, individual care, attention, and maintenance records are worth 100x more than factory build quality.

At that price point and this market, it’s all just luck of the draw now.

In my area I’m seeing really high-mileage Toyotas and Hondas (300K). Or “lower” mileage (150k) Impalas, Taurus, and a Mazda 6.

All paper bags are in short supply in the US mainly due to an adhesive shortage that was caused by the unprecedented cold snap in Texas that damaged adhesive production facilities. I knew this was coming months ago when paper bag manufacturers announced a temporary halting of production of paper grocery bags with…

5th gear: “both-sidesing”?? Seriously?

As people flee the increasingly large parts of our country/world that are regularly on fire, I expect a steep rise in real estate prices in the mid-west and north east. 

1st Gear: I really genuinely think the worst consequence of climate change is our rapidly changing weather patterns. In the midwestern city I live in, we don’t really have spring or fall anymore, just extended summer and winter with very brief respites. Winter is way more mild, summer is way hotter, and we have much mo…

If COVID-19 has taught me anything, it’s that we’re not probably fucked, we’re proper fucked.

We (wife) own one - 2011. Works great with the grandkids for ice cream/shave ice/chicken tender runs. When older couples visit us geezers, it’s lower the top for the olds to get in the back, then top closed. Mechanism still works great without any real maintenance. People still stop and point during the origami…

This is such an obvious NP that it makes me wonder what is secretly wrong with it.

This is the Nicest Price I’ve seen in a while.

This is an absolute NP for a tidy little hardtop convertible that looks to be in good cosmetic and mechanical shape. They’re unique enough that I still take a nice long look whenever I see one parked or driving around. Quirky top, quirky interior, quirky 5 cylinder engine.

Literally forwarded this to a co-worker I’m trying to convince to not buy a Solara because that would mean she has given up on life.

You don’t have to wait that long. The Winter Olympics is set to start in less than 6 months.

Yeah I’ve heard a bunch of different narratives around why these Olympics went ahead, including “it’s all about the athletes” and “Japan was so good to put this on for the rest of the world” when it’s really about the fact that the IOC would have lost billions from the media rights and advertising that had been sold…

Wait, Martinez was divorced AND also had a former fiance?
