Is that not almost exactly what I fucking said?

But the real tragedy, Joe, lies with us as a society, as some of us will continue to fight for Jeff’s “right” to acquire obscene hoards of wealth despite the indirect suffering it causes for so many others.

What’s better? The unpopular survivors, or the well used desirable survivor?

Children dying of cancer as their families go into bankruptcy is far, far uglier, I can assure you.

See: That barn outside Gretna.

Omaha and Lincoln are mediocre at best. But yes, the state is garbage.

It’s not just the abuse off road, it’s the long term survivability of the car, especially in a harsh environment of poorly maintained city roads.

Consumers will eventually realize that the image is not always the reality.

The typical driver doesn’t take their SUV off-road, and as a result more have moved to having large wheels, FWD, less ground clearance and unibody construction. And they sell better because of it

I think cross-overs already answered that question for you, minus the body on frame part. And that is because no one actually wants that, no matter how much they think they do, unless they’re off-roading or hauling/towing heavy loads on the regular. There is a reason that almost everything other than pickups are…

I don’t understand the hate on trucks. Especially around here where people praise old luxo-barges like the Crown Vic. An F150 is a million times better than a Crown Vic by every single measure. The biggest issue I have with them is they are too big to fit in my garage.

It is silly that you’re expecting a Mustang to hold you and your wife at over 6' and two teenagers in the back that might be 6' tall. You bought the wrong car if these are your requirements.

I’m not really advocating for taking all of their payment and giving it to the hourly workers, only pointing out that doing so would seem far less damning if they did so, especially in the light of their total compensating being so high above their reported profits.

Are you really trying to cram anyone 6ft in the back of a small coupe?

Anyone have a good recommendation for sourcing 1"/11 gauge square tubing? That seems to be one of the areas where price can fluctuate; and I’m hoping to keep the price down.

I thought this when I read David’s article about welding the Postal Jeep, but I really don’t trust a 120v welder to have enough penetration for structural welds on a car (or go-kart) frame. At least, I wouldn’t put my kid in it.

Uhhh, the Mustang and GT are pretty damn interesting.

Yeah, I might be underselling it.  Even if it’s under $1000 after taxes, it’s nothing to complain about.  

It’s still the total of what they’re getting paid.
