I’ve always had bigger problems with the older generation while working in retail. If millenials have issues, I blame it on their dipshit parents who coddle their kids into thinking the world revolves around them.

As someone who suffers from various allergies, I’ll try to be as diplomatic as possible here. That said...

Welcome to the world of Millenials, who swear that they have the right to spit on people who lean their seat back. You expect better from them when they’re inconvenienced by someone’s medical emergency?

I will give you $10 right now to take your car out on the highway, get it up to 65 then let go of the wheel and only hit the brakes and let me know how that fail safe works out for you. You can even pick a relatively straight highway and not a curvy mountain road.

I can speak on the brakes breaking. This happened the other day to me.

You’re assuming a physical steering mechanism failure. Lets say car blows a fuse or a wire comes loose so the steering computer goes out. Suddenly I’ve got a structurally sound car that’s barreling down the highway with no steering control.

Having a degree from business school, I can tell you that the goal of any corporate entity is to appease the opinionated, non-product buying population commonly found on the internet.

It’s almost like they’re in business to make money rather than in business for another reason that has never existed in the history of businesses larger than your buddies craft beer mug shop.

This is my concern as well. I’d like to see the infotainment broken out separately somehow. How good a car is at being a car should be ranked apart from how good it is at being a smartphone.

Regarding reliability, this used to mean whether or not your car would break down or need major mechanical work. Now it’s being heavily influenced by consumers ratings on the ease of use of infotainment systems.

1st gear: I’m sure they’re fantastic for the first few years during the warranty.

I'd pay 4-5 grand for it.

Thanks Breaking Bad for jacking up the market on these things. My heart says nice price (weird 4x4 wagon with boxy 80's japanese styling) because I want this thing hard. My brain says “10k for almost 200k miles.. That’s a nice tall glass of NOPE.” Ultimately my heart won. A reluctant NP even though I’d never actually…

I wonder whether the marketers are a greater danger than the bean counters.

This is astounding both for its cognizance and the fact it was not just understood but said:

Oh Honda will let their engineers build whatever they want, they’ll just charge us $1,200 for floor mats to make up for it.

I’m sorry if I missed one of your questions before.

Not on this particular article, though there have been ones in the past where I have asked questions/pointed out errors.

On Star already can.
