The point is that the vast, vast majority of us don’t get anything near as generous as this. If I f*ck up to even a minor degree, I get fired with absolutely nothing to show for it.

Don’t judge him by the prototypes. maybe this will be a full production model.

They are nowhere near the same car though. The eb Mustang starts in the mid to high 20s these days and is a whole lot more car than anything they had in the 60s. It’s more reliable, safer, has tech people in the 60 probably couldn’t dream up, all while being able to outperform those 60s cars. I don’t see this as an…

Of course they were all sold. To dealers, who are Toyota’s actual customers. Most dealers then resold them, some didn’t for a looong time.

Ah the original “all of our $100 preorders for our new polygon truck are spoken for.”

Marketing Departments tell lies?!?

Other takeaways:

That’s why I passed on it.

I don’t give a damn if it is seven years old. If I won the $237 million Powerball jackpot tomorrow night, one of my first orders of business would be putting together my own Gone in 60 Seconds list of 50 cars (to be acquired legally, though), and a Lexus LFA would sure AF be on there. I think I’d name her... Rebecca.…

I’d be a little dubious that the V10 would be in sound operating order after sitting around virtually unused for seven years.  

I’m always amazed by the binary thought process that seems prevalent today - If you’re “this”, you cannot be “that”.

The V6 ones weren’t shit.

That’s not saying a ton, but a loaded V6 200 is actually a pretty good car, thus making the model as a whole not eligible.

If you bought a base model you deserve to rot in hell though.

Tesla Cultists

My favorite bit of Tesla cultists is they are often also rabid anti-Apple tech geeks who will be quick to call out Steve Jobs for being more of a product manager and salesman than an inventor...which is exactly what Elon Musk is. Elon isn’t designing Tesla cars or SpaceX rockets. He just barks out the general idea of…

State-of-the-art renderings have shown that Los Broncos will kick your balls into outer space.

I have sent this to a paleontologist friend of mine. Soon, we will have a complete mocked up

My main complaint with Facebook Marketplace is the automatically generated response button that says, “Is this still available?”

This is absolutely the dumbest possible auto-reply.

More great weekend content! Thank you!

My favorite way of dealing with lowballers is to lowball them back. No one ever understands it.

Or the guys from Pawn Stars. “Look, I like it personally, but I gotta pay you for it, then I gotta get it cleaned, then I gotta put it in a shadowbox, then it’s gonna sit here in my store taking up space I could use selling things that actually sell, and I know I will only get five dollars for it at best and someone…
