It’s a scam. the car is probably sold already. I had a similar situation with a Ioniq 5 Limited. Advertised lease for $99/mo, $0 down, 36 months. I called the dealer (was about 1 hour away) and kept asking if the car was on the lot and available and I kept getting the runaround. eventually they admitted the car was…
This post is strictly theoretical. In the US, wealthy white men are in virtually no danger of being tried, convicted, and deported.
Personally I’m all for this sort of adventurous design directions in trucks. Cars, both sedans and coupes, among whatever further sub-genres you can lump cars into, have had relative luxury of going in virtually any design direction people are willing to buy. Trucks on the other hand have an “expected” look about…
Only 16k more for less truck in 5 years huh? Well that must be inflation and certainly not price gouging. Somewhere between the manufacturer and the dealerships is a giant un-lubed dildo targeted directly at the customers.
It’s more than just the auto industry, though. Project 2025's environmental section is basically “let’s intentionally destroy as much nature as possible and purposefully make global warming worse.” Not even a “maximise shareholder value for a short while” kind of destruction, but “let’s commit environmental suicide”…
Buc-ee’s brisket sandwiches are great, but plan on staying for 30 minutes on your first stop there; Love’s is just about everywhere, has reasonable prices for gas and food, and generally clean bathrooms; QT is fine, unless you’re in rural Georgia, and then the bathroom may have a mound of unflushed waste (ok, it was…
Lived in MD for over a decade, so I know Sheetz and Wawa well. I liked them both but for different reasons, really. Perhaps it was simply the ones I went to that always seemed on point.
Wawa FTW, Sheetz is trash.
The only issue I had with the video is when John Oliver recommended no longer targeting vehicles with expired plates or expired registration.
It’s been my experience that:
Losing jobs due to technical advancements is a story as old as the industrial revolution. Look at this picture compared to the lead one and see how many workers lost their jobs from robots.
Funny how things like that level of frustration can really trigger you. You’d think watching my dad take two weeks to die of a stroke - slowly losing himself piece by piece, day by day, in front of my very eyes until he withered away to a husk - would be my worst day. But somehow, it wasn’t.
Who spends that much money to make an interior so ugly and cheap looking?
Why would you assume that? I mean it could be, but it could also be the 70 year old just hit the accelerator and panicked like many old people do. If it was anything but a Tesla, that would be the likely assumption, right?
I’d guess based on the fact that most articles they run nowadays are more about “Screw the Police” or “Screw the Rich” than actual cars that the day is nigh...
All forms of writing, including journalism, are art. If you’re as old as me, you remember the heydays of Road & Track and Car and Driver, when they had really good writers doing the journalism, and even better writers doing editorial and storytelling pieces. But really good writers cost money, and that eats into…
Plus I can easily keep two Jerry cans of gas in my garage. Not so easy to have a couple buckets of electricity.
No kidding! If I can’t tow my boat going at LEAST 250 MPH what’s the point of this thing?
I’ll have to wait/look elsewhere until a 280mph Bugatti SUV shows up. I have a stroller to haul and my wife wants the better view of traffic.
