Not original OP but if I stat a gofundme will you all donate so I can do this FOR THE TEAM (TM)?  I’m willing to take that hit to buy a Civic Type R I won’t drive much and absolutely could not begin to justify buying otherwise.

Thank you! I get it. Some dealers mark shit up. But if you’re willing to travel/ship a car and/or just wait minute and do a little research you can often find “hot” cars for MSRP.  Not everything of course, but come on, if a buyer is really this motivated they should also not need to go to C&B to get a new car.

Which isn’t unusual right? He probably just kept getting replacements from a bad lot number. He went through 2-3 of them before he moved on.

We can’t even reliably teach people how babies are made in our public schools.

The DCT was really really bad for a ton of owners. I felt so bad listening to a coworker tell me about his experience with it. It wasn’t the performance (which was ok when it worked I guess), but it was an ongoing saga to get the thing fixed right and he didn’t have confidence that the car was going to get him where…

Here’s the thing, the McDonalds along the thruway were trash.  We live in MA and have taken 90 through NY many times.  The McDonalds on the MA/NY border (on the NY side) is one of the worst I’ve ever experienced. 

Short of the infrastructure supporting it, FSD isn’t going to overcome the problems that weather, other drivers, and just odd ball road design can create.

That’s unfair! Infants can and will learn.  FSD will fail a million times given a scenario and then fail a million times again.

In Matlab the relevant function is the backslash (\).

Subaru dealerships in the Boston area do not want to maintain their cars.

Not a mechanic story, but Subaru’s manual transmissions really seem to hate the cold.  My 2007 WRX would leave me with a bruised hand trying to shove it into gear.  Coming from a Honda and then going to a Miata it was so obvious that the Subaru transmission just sucked to shift through.

At least one of his ex-wives tried to warn us and most people didn’t seem to believe her.  More to it than that, but people who knew him were saying he was a jerk for a long time while he was still skating by on being some sort of super hero character in the public eye.

Walking by the police station near me (which I do regularly on my way to the bus stop) is like a museum of various vehicle related violation. Illegal tint, obscured plates, illegally parked of course, all sorts of illegal modifications, expired inspection stickers, etc.

“Max has a brake pedal too.”

Read the rules. Max was behind and should have pulled out earlier because he wasn’t going to be able to complete.

Except nobody, including Checo, was confused about who Max is.  The fans know it, his haters know it, and his teammate sure as shit knows it.  Max is all about Max.  He has normalized being a selfish prick.  It is interesting that articles like this can still exist when anyone who has watched Max for any amount of…

Oddly enough, I’ve seen way more mini-vans on unmaintained roads than Honda Pilots.  We even regularly joke about “mini-van dads” taking their Toyota Siennas places nobody would expect them to.
