Although many cities have had quite the hangover from that party

This happens a lot on helicopters as well for balance.

Well would you look at that, rich people living by a different set of rules than us poors. As a wise person once said, if the law is only punishable by a fine, its effectively a law only for the non-rich. If they really wanted to give it some teeth, after a certain income bracket the fine should scale up and be a…

It’s not a stupid question, it's a great one. Answers given cover the basics, I think :)

Well then he’s not going to like the way he looks. 

No, they already felt like they’d survived hell

I should have rotated them.

Was getting on a small turboprop and they were asking everyone how much they weighed and assigning seats based on that. 

Business or First class ticket.

Yeah, I have a card that gives me 10% cash back (capped at $5/week) on Exxon purchases, so I try to go there, but if I need fuel and theres only a shell, I’ll go to shell.  I assume the same will be true of certain chargers giving benefits to certain manufactures.

5th gear: The shops that I’m concerned about are the specialty shops. AAMCO, Meineke, and the oil change/lube shops (Jiffy Lube, etc) will probably not have much to do in 5-10 years. When I worked at Meineke, most of our work was custom exhausts and brake jobs. Brakes obviously still exists, but they require less…

5th Gear: Mechanics will be fine, it’s the “quick oil change” places that are doomed. Suspensions, CVs, brakes, cooling and climate systems are all the same or similar to ICE vehicles. They’re mostly swapping knowledge of fuel and emissions systems with batteries and power systems.

5th Gear. Got new front tires on the Nissan Leaf this week 33K Miles. Other than one recall for the backup camera its been trouble free

but that’s pending rule changes at ERCOT, which doesn’t currently allow residents to participate in the state’s energy market

It’s important to understand that in Texas’s deregulated grid, these shortages and price spikes are a feature, not a bug. Power plants that sell electricity into the wholesale market only turn a profit when they sell during these price spikes. The system is working as designed, since its designed to make money for…

But if the politicians made the energy providers spend more money improving the grid, then the energy providers would have less money to spend improving politicians’ bank accounts.

But hey! At least it’s not Commiefornia! What they need is more Guns and more Jesus. Those 2 things will solve all of Texans’ problems!

So you’re a shitty friend? 

“Neither Walmart nor Canoo released financial details about the deal.”

A bunch of USED CAR DEALERS don’t like rules that stop them from being shady? Who would have ever guessed!
