Question about the Reverse thingy: When your head gets lopped off, does it go left or right?

I disagree.

no, i don’t. i’m ok with crossovers and free delivery using trucks whose job it is to be trucks every day.

seems like i’ve been hearing that for 25 years now. we know it can be done. it could even be done without a bunch of crying about reduced hp for a while if we tried really hard.

The thing is, fixing the seat doesn’t fix the problem. What Hyundai needs to do is cut the guy a check for 2 grand and tell him they are done fixing broken seats for him. What Mr X needs to do is cash the check and go on with his plastic-shattering life.

I’m saying NP just because some days I want everyone that sees me to kind of hate my guts.

so...NOT an XJS?

well the third strike is the average working-class American can’t afford a new car that’s just for funsies. i think most folks, or at least most jalopniks, are glad that cars like this are still being made but aren’t in a financial position to own something that is impractical as an only car.

hey, somebody has to lubricate those robots. why should that job go to a Mexican?

I don’t believe that the ignorant or the desperate deserve to be exploited. Like the article mentions, Uber bullshitted people in their ads for drivers. It’s not like Uber was straight with them and they decided to screw themselves. And it’s not as easy to just quit if you are trapped in an Uber lease. It’s the 21st…

Nope. There is nothing unique about this swap. There’s no reason to pay this much money for a british two-seater with a wankel engine with no windows or top. If you’re really into this rx7 powered brit rustpile thing, do it right. Start with a Triumph Spitfire and a GT6 hood.

I really, really hope I won’t have to buy a car at Wal-mart. The interest on the financing will be payday loan-level usury, and the auto insurance offered at the kiosk will be higher than market. This option will be for people that have earned their terrible credit.

If that’s true, how do you make the math that includes leasing a car from Uber work?

“It’s not meant to be anyone’s full-time job” is the excuse that every shitty company that exploits workers use. I don’t accept that. If Uber didn’t intend to be anyone’s main source of income, they would never have started leasing cars to people.

maybe there should be a regulation that all box trailers have a big red tape x across their sides, or something. I’m sure human drivers have mistaken the side of a truck for sky or whatever before. it wouldn’t be too terribly expensive.

yes, but you can’t put a price on how many Ecuadorian bucket-of-gold-from-a-truck thieves this bust will discourage.

where them wagons at?

not if you saw it in half and ship it fedex ground.

my guess is that his wife is not very understanding about the fact that he “only needs to put another 30k into it and it will be worth 80k.”

plus Lucid’s car doesn’t have a stupid pop up sprinkler head in front of the windshield.
