I think they couldn’t keep from cracking up, so in order to make this machismo scene work, they had them stand almost side by side. Then spin a tale in the press about not looking at each other, so that they could sound gruff, talk about their deepest insecurities, without making eye contact.

It’s unclear if the “porosity,” as GM describes it, impacts the wheels’ structural integrity.

I used to work in the aluminum recovery area of a foundry. Subaru would scrap wheels just for a scuff. On several occasions we received over 20 tons on brand new BRZ wheels that they pulled off the cars at port. The ones my dad has on his Legacy though, those totally fell off the back of a truck... Honest...

I worked close with metal foundaries for a part of my job (I was responsible for production machining cast parts).

I really can’t believe how unbelievably stupid these have gotten (and mostly were from the beginning). People trying to one up strangers on the internet for quite literally pointless likes/hearts/stars.

Obligatory.

The all-electric rental car company should be called.....

$14k USD for an 11 year old E71 hybrid with 11 year old hybrid tech and a transmission that BMW stopped using... You could not pay me to hang this albatross around my neck. This should go down as the greatest no dice loss in the history of the interwebs. The value in this E71 is for parts. Somebody could use the…

Well I had been going to this mechanic for years and thought he was pretty solid. A lot of other people went there too, but after awhile his work went downhill. It was gradual so it took awhile to realize the reason I was going was to talk to the other customers in the waiting room. In the end we realized he was just…

as usual with the internet, destroying wholesomeness at every opportunity

I told her that neighbors are more important than a stream and stopped streaming.

This is the correct attitude.

. . . a desperate poser.

As I approached their early 2000's Kia Sorento in the parking lot of the auto parts store I worked at very briefly, I noticed some paint peeling on the hood. I asked the lady to pop it as she complained about every light in the dash coming on in the car she had just purchased from her own brother for $6,000, which was…

I’ve known my wife since Jr. High. We lost touch for a few years after HS but got in touch to meet up at a hometown bar one night while I was in town.
 

Its a Chevy, they will make more

Yeah, he seems like one of those “alpha” losers who don’t understand that a true alpha, if they existed (the whole thing is based on a discredited theory—by the very guy who developed it, even—about wolf pack hierarchy), wouldn’t think about being an alpha, wouldn’t give a shit about adhering to someone else’s idea of…

The mostly stock engine is another knock against it for me.

I saw the title and immediately thought “Either there’s a lot less Accord under the skin than meets the eye or someone hit the “9" key an extra time by accident.

It’s like when people buy a place under the flight pattern of the local airport and then bitch about the jet noise.
