Hats aren’t a solution for long hair.

I’d argue that the death of the convertible is a symptom of 1: cars costing too much and 2: because cars cost so much, the cars you buy have to be extremely functional. Basically, high car prices mixed with the fact that in most of the US, you pretty much have to own a car to get around make it difficult for the

Most of it. Or honestly, all of it.

Don’t worry- I am not implying that you, Stewbacca, secretly want to drive a Camry. But you are straying dangerously close to “methinks he doth protest too much” territory :).

The opinions of others. If you spend too much time listening to what others KNOW a car has to have, you end up just getting things you don’t really want.

You may just need to try active cruise on another car- it’s super smooth on my subaru. Also I can turn off the lane departure warnings and lane departure.

That’s a big deal for Hertz. Really big. Mega even. It’s a MegaHertz deal.

They owe Demolition Man royalties on this. Though to be fair the car they used was a GM prototype.

I have tried like 3 times to describe how much this level of excess makes me feel and so far I’ve come up with a range from “I think I’ll be happy when the eventual workers rebellion happens and puts our entitled ruling class up against a wall,” to “It’s like looking at weird european porn where everything just seems

Yeah, she’s powerless. But what she symbolizes to a LOT of people is pretty awful. She symbolized the theft of lands and treasures, the wholesale looting of cultures, the exploitation of so many people who, because they weren’t English, didn’t count as human. You can be powerless and still be a symbol of oppression.

A few minutes later, a couple of dudes on four-stroke dirtbikes went tearing by, braaaping exhausts echoing off the birch trees and absolutely shattering the calm. Moments like that can make even the most ardent internal combustion fans realize that maybe it’s time for a change.

I’ll take it one step further and say this: You know how we always complain about how Europe has all these cool as hell little cars we never get here in the US because “they just won’t sell in America?”

oh definitely.

After years as a retro-grouch who didn’t want none of them danged safety nannies on mah car and manual transmissions only thankyouverymuch...

Still the best of the recent trilogy.

Destroy all the sacred cows of star wars- the handsome rogue? Treacherous. The guy who doesn’t follow orders? almost gets everyone killed. The Jedi? A nobody. And the final, final scene- the little kid in the stable who subtly force-pulls his broom to him? PERFECT.

And it turns out that CVTs are not terrible. They work. You don’t really notice them.

The Subaru Outback.

I am still utterly unable to wrap my head around a 7k rooftop tent.

The problem is, we keep looking at electric cars as just extensions of what we already have, so, since we already have super fancy hypercars, what happens if you just replace the drivetrain with electric?
