“I like people going through the extra effort to swap weird and unusual motors.”

This is the problem with these takes though. YOU aren’t paying for that swap. YOU aren’t living with that swap. YOU aren’t having to deal with the integration hassles of that swap. Everyone wants someone else to foot the bill to put an…

I love this post and could not agree more.  Both sound incredible and your analogy is spot on.

“he headed a company for 30 years”

No he didn’t. 

“Were. Past tense, as in that was a long time ago and things have changed.” 

No they haven’t. Greedy people still do everything they can to take advantage of their workers.  

Thank you for saving me the reply.  You covered it perfectly.

...so explain how any of that supports your theory that they are fleeing dense housing and eliminates any possibility that they are fleeing high cost of living.

Correlation does not equal causation.  You have failed, entirely, to account for pretty much any factors that could be driving that migration.

Ah, gotcha. Then I apologize. Carry on.

Citation needed.  The fact that 80% of americans live in urban areas according to the US Census Bureau indicates people don’t mind living close to other people.  The fact that the cost of living in the areas people are “fleeing” (they aren’t fleeing) is through the roof and the place they’re going has extremely low…

“Multi family housing sucks. The exact same reasons you dont’ want to ride on public transit are the reasons I don’t want to share a wall or all my walls with the guy who hasn’t showered in a week and is cooking that ramen at 4am while he practices tap dancing.”

Hate to break it to you, but bad neighbors can happen…

If by big chunk you mean 20% of Americans...sure. But I’m pretty sure the entire point of this article is to focus on the 80% of Americans who live in urban areas according to the US Census Bureau.

“They bring the same joy to the expensive stuff that they bring to the cheap stuff.”
 

None of the cars I put under Roadkill are pure Roadkill - the other two were around before the show (Blasphemi was bought and built after the start of the show). Hell the Rumble Bee has been Freiburger’s since he was 15. It’s just easiest to lump them under that banner.

I’ll check them out, thanks!

“I’ll give Roadkill a pass though, they often just go to a junkyard and resurrect something that almost any enthusiast can afford.”

They do, and I very much enjoy their show - even with the more expensive cars.  That said, Freiburger has said he gets lowball offers all the time on that Muscle Truck because people think…

I’m a people. When do I get mine?

There are many areas around the country where what you are suggesting would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars...

While a short commute may be nice, some people quite literally could never, EVER afford it.

“but guys in this position are almost never the cause of these issues as they go through tens to hundreds of other people before it finally reaches them, and often they never even see or even have their hands on the project”

So what, exactly, are they getting paid for?

Fact is, company culture starts at the top. The…

“The whole smoking of pot isn’t an issue though, since again where he did it, it was legal.”

No, it wasn’t. He’s the CEO of a company that does business with the federal government, handling classified information. No one who has a security clearance can smoke pot, regardless of state legality as it is still illegal at…

Oh I didn’t need to catch you on anything. Your arguments are complete dogshit that amount to, “I don’t like that California is a significant market that automakers cater to.” Go cry to your mother. That isn’t an argument to base policy on.

Good grammar is there to make things clear to those reading. Yes it was “all…

Might want to look in the mirror bub.  That sentence structure was beyond atrocious. Try punctuation.
