Ah, of course Margin is here trying to kick against the pricks. I see you’re still trying to make Mazda not an enthusiast favorite. So I will react to your reaction, with Mazdas!!!

Kind of like playing on the ignorance of marginal tax rates.

If anything, the fuel economy standards are not strict enough. You can meet the standards without a single electric car. In some categories like large light trucks, you can even do it without a single hybrid!

The report is predicated on output, if you read it. Their projections are generation, not capacity, so your argument isn’t valid for the data being presented.

Kia says the AWD naturally aspirated engine can do 22 mpg in combined driving while the turbo does 21.

Brexit: Has there ever been a slower-motion version of a modern western economy shooting themselves in the foot? I’m still hopeful that they will figure out a way to effectively stay in the EEA (or just remain), but May’s red lines along with the general state of UK politics make me think they will end up with no…

i was just shooting the other day with my daughter’s christmas presents... :D

Holy hell, this made my entire day. I hope others find it useful.

We were the same, except we put diapers on “subscribe and save.” Diapers were stolen from our porch. DIapers arrived late. Then we realized we were pretty good at predicting how long a pack of diapers or a can of formula would last, and just bought everything at Costco, a company that objectively does NOT suck.

the base engine was pretty anemic

I would gather that weather conditions are also much harsher on the Alaska infrastructure than the rest of the US so maintenance and upkeep would be that much more expensive and difficult to maintain.  However, wouldn’t pushing the oil industry that makes literally billions in profit regardless of oil prices to pitch…

Maybe that is a benefit of our President.  People are getting sick of big mouths.

Found Tim Cook’s kinja handle

Don’t tell Trump he didn’t win Canada, he’ll want more tariffs.

So, aside from Maryland & Canada, these were all in states that Trump won in 2016.

I don’t think this should be spun as a bad thing. They’re trying to prepare for a market correction/recession. The past few years have been too good for there not to be one.

I was always under the impression that those signs in valet lots and impound lots and at auto shops and whatnot that say “we are not liable, yadda yadda yadda” don’t actually hold any water from a legal standpoint. That’s what I was always told, anyway. Or at least what I’ve read online before.

The main benefit is throttle control over difficult obstacles.

On many vehicles, it’s best to use your left foot to brake while applying a bit of throttle in order to get your vehicle enough torque to traverse the obstacle, but not too much speed so as to lose control or cause damage.

We all have a problem with pollution.

Why would they make it look different than the Wrangler? That’d be insane.
