Sir, this is a Wendy's, I believe you are looking for the conspiracy theory thread.

“After decades of Boomers keeping up with the Joneses, Millennials were supposedly “more about the experience” than physical goods”.
ZOMFG PRIVATE RYAN WAS THE T-1000 ALL ALONG
“Independence Day” is what Summer blockbuster season was made for. Epic. Ambitious. Exciting.
If working at a dealership taught me anything, it’s that we here at this site are the oddballs that care as much as we do about our cars. Most people dgaf.
3rd Gear: I work at a Hyundai dealer, and I overheard some talk that our incoming inventory hasn’t been affected too much, but our on-the-lot new inventory is low because we’re getting so many buyers coming from the Honda, Chevy, etc. dealers that don’t have inventory.
Here in Cal-I-Forn-IA its totally, balls to the wall, batshit insane. We bought our house 12 years ago for what felt like an insane, $450,000. It eventually climbed to a “supposed” paper value of $850,000. One of my neighbors casually mentioned his property had gone up 20% in 2 months. I looked mine up. Of course it…
One of my high school friends posted yesterday that they took delivery of their first brand new car, by virtue of being at the dealership when the truck arrived. They were ecstatic that it had been entered on the manifest incorrectly and was blue instead of black, but were apparently going to take it either way.
The problem is the price is usually totally ridiculous at this point. There’s just so much goddamn money sloshing around the housing market, because investment firms are desperate for any return they can get, that it’s distorting the market badly. I’m genuinely worried that some hedge fund doofus is going to snap up…
Fast Five ruined the series. F1-F4 was about cars. F5-present is an action movie that happens to have cool cars.
Tbh, FF never really captured car culture that well. Can really only make arguments for the first and Tokyo Drift. All the rest simply use cars as a backdrop.
I like the zen and art reference, as I age i like cars that break down less, need less work and hold together better, yes I miss my 78 rabbit 4 speed but not when I need to get to work reliably and not sweat covered or when it filled with water when it rained.
Beautifully said. My Neon had much more...charm, than my Cruze. Is the Cruze a “better” vehicle? In every objective way, 100%. And maybe it’s nostalgia bias, but I even feel that way when I have to drive our shitty 24-year-old Corolla. There’s a simplicity and feeling that is missing from today’s rolling social-isolati…
A lot of Elon adherents wonder why other automotive CEOs don’t get the scrutiny that Musk does when Tesla rolls out new or different technologies. They view this scrutiny as bias. But it’s not.
Unlike other automotive CEOs, Musk implies that everything Tesla does was thought up specifically by him. He may not say it…
Forgot the /s?
Around a decade ago, Elon Musk and Tesla had a great idea. They developed an electric car that was the opposite of what we had come to expect from one. People thought electric cars were slow so they made it fast. We thought they took forever to charge so they developed a way to charge them quickly and built the…
How fucking stupid. This is why I don’t take Tesla stans seriously, Elon comes out with blatantly dangerous shit, but WE’RE the idiots for saying so. Welp, I guess we better brace ourselves for all the inevitable “STEERING YOKE FAIL!!” stories that are inevitably on their way.
When I worked on a sorting dock at a shipping company, our pick-off had a very similar response several times every morning. I wonder how much of your life that job shaves off per day.
