It's sad that not enough people stand up and defend themselves against the bad laws that exist in the US today. Some people do, but a hell of a lot of other people just roll over, so the abuses just continue.

Why should they? Why should I have to go through anyone else to buy a car? I don't have to with any other kind of product. Why are cars so damned special?

Ford tried that before online sales were a thing.

What the hell makes cars so special? I can buy anything else directly from the manufacturer without you screaming about the manufacturers of those items being able to fix prices.

These are far easier to adjust properly and provide a much wider field of view.

Why don't carmakers just install split mirrors that are mostly flat, like the mirrors that are used now, with an outside panel that is convex so that the blind spot is filled in? I installed a set of these (shown here are VW mirrors; the blue is an antiglare coating) on my GTI the day I got it. They cost only a few…

Here you go. A Subagon Westy.

Yes, yes, we know. Every car looks like every other to some extent nowadays.

The family doesn't owe the debt. They'll be slapped down in a second if they're stupid enough to try it.

I'm not blaming you. I'm simply pointing out that the police would say that you were in a car and thus able to drive off. Hopefully, neither of us will ever have to be in a situation where we have to hear a cop or judge say that, though.

I would advise against doing that again. You can lose your permit for that. It's considered brandishing a weapon. The police will say "Why didn't you drive away?" and then what will you answer?

I hate dogs, so I don't have one to bite you.

What Subaru AWD performance hatchback? You get a sedan or you get nothing.

My current VW may well be my last. Sick of the way they claim to be more serious about the US market but keep jerking us around.

Really? Don't know why other peoples' masculinity is threatened by other peoples' vehicle selections.

Where's the 1-series hatch? Where's the wagons that aren't 40k plus? Where's the full-line diesels, including small diesel engines?

I see, so you think someone deserves injury or death if you don't like how they drive.

Being pissed at how someone else drives is never a reason to try to kill them. Just back off. Exit the road and turn the engine off and take a few deep breaths if you need to.

"We're sorry that the truth hurts."

Hope he made you clean all that up.
