I always thought this would be the case - that autonomous cars would increase traffic. If I live 30 mins from work by subway, but 60 by autonomous car, I’d take the car. I could work in comfort and peace and effectively save 30 mins of productivity compared to the train.

Jokes on you. He’s actually a 35 year old hedge fund manager who’s laughing that these big companies let him pillage their 401K funds by investing in bullshit like WeWork and Uber, right before short selling them and making off like a bandit.

I find that SUVs have less legroom in back than comparable sedans. I’m 6'4" and uber frequently. I dislike when they “upgrade” my Uber black to an Uber black SUV, because the Suburban or Expedition they send will always have less legroom in the second row than the Continental or XTS they would send otherwise.

Mustang Maché. It's french. That's elegant 

This is probably a feeder line into their main terminal. If you’re going from Brooklyn to Boston for example (as my friend does often to see family), you probably buy a ticket from Brooklyn to Boston with one connection at Port Authority. I doubt many people are buying this ticket for the journey you mentioned...but…

There was a hero hole at my high school years ago. There was a manhole just past a raised curb on a sharp parking lot corner. After the city replaced the water mains, they removed the manhole and filled it in. But the dirt fill quickly eroded, leaving a deep and narrow hole just beyond the curb. In true Midwestern…

I used one of these in my E39 M5 for years before replacing the CD changer with an Aux and Bluetooth unit. It worked really well! I now have a 2005 A6 for my winter beater and it only has a CD changer. Never thought I'd miss a tape deck. 

So now you have interstitial ads WITH NO ABILITY TO CLOSE THEM when you click to expand a picture... What has this site become? 

Alpine A110 sold here. Just as it is, but maybe with a manual. 

Can confirm this works just as well, if not better, on rental Mustang GTs (because you're not paying for tires) 

The longer you keep it without being a moneypit, the better value it is. I buy cars near the bottom of the depreciation curve (but still in nice condition) so I don’t get hosed on the end. Think of 7 year old BMWs - no value left in them, but often still in very nice condition and just as modern as many new cars for…

He's clearly not defending the company, nor am I. He's explaining why the law was interpreted as written. If you understand nuance, you'll see there's a difference 

You could argue that, but proving intent in not using the right torque spec would be very hard. Because there is no cost savings in not using the correct spec, there was no sign of foul play... It’s still a legally dubious argument 

This is why bloggers don’t argue legal cases. It was wrong, obviously. But it doesn’t fit the legal definition of unfair business practices, because it wasn’t intentional or deceptive. It was careless. Which is negligence, a completely different argument which the plaintiff could have argued. Her lawyers chose the…

From a legal standpoint, their attorney made a poor decision to pursue MVSRA. This is gross negligence, but not deceptive business practice. A doctor or a restaurant would be held in gross negligence for the two examples you provided, but not for deception.

I'm a BMW fan and long time owner, but even here it's no competition. The 2 series Sedan, the A3 and the A class/CLA are dressed up economy cars. At least BMW attempts to mask it with AWD standard. Nothing will replace a RWD chassis 

Maybe that's true. At least in the first generation, the X5 was based on the 5 series platform, but maybe that changed. Certainly on price, its closer to 5 series money 

I think so. My sister has a 5speed Crosstrek, which she called a hatchback. After having her second kid she said she wished "they bought the wagon" when they sold it with a stick, referring to the Outback. So her husband bought a Sienna 

I find crossovers are usually short on usable space. Two years ago I went skiing with three friends and all our gear in France. Our rental was an 3 series wagon and we had plenty of space. Last year we all went skiing in Colorado and used my friends X3 and we simply could not fit our gear. We ended up having to rent a…

Tax it by the carbon emitted. Simple. Airlines will stop scheduling hourly flights between Chicago and NYC on 737s, and instead schedule a flight every 3 hours on a 787, which probably reduces the carbon per seat mile. They would also stop the asinine approach of selling connecting flights for less money, even though…
