Pretty please tell me you’re being sarcastic?

Why are we focusing on smuggling alcohol and not the sex trafficking? Seems like these two things are not equals...

Is drug Uber “Düber?”

Yeah, that’s a problem too. Everyone wants to be a manager, nobody wants to be an employee. Something’s gotta give.

Are you making 140k as a menial office rat?

It is a dead end job if you are a dead end employee.

Exactly, trade school educations can be a far more profitable investment than college; you can make six figures with less initial cost than a batchelors’ degree.

If you read the NYT article, it says that mechanics can often make 6 figures after passing one of these training programs and putting in a few years of work. For a lot of people, that is much more useful long term than graduating from a low level college with $100k in debt and no real career prospects. Our society…

Who’s to blame for creating a world in which holding VITAL service/labor positions (and often making a good living doing so, with often much less upfront costs) are seen as “failing” in life?

I’ll be honest, that looks better than their new grille in my opinion.

Painting the grill did wonders for the look, whether it was color-matched or color-contrasted.

No, but I’ve looked at replacing the distributor with a racing magneto. Do that and it wouldn’t need an alternator or even a battery - start it with a crank and drive away.

Probably because they are cheaper than the real deal and are re-used. We always used old ass expired MOPP gear for training when I was in the military. Never broke the seal on the legit stuff.

Well considering wage stagflation started in the 70's, then yes. Less shit would have been made globally and domestically if NAFTA hadn’t been instituted. The decline of America isn’t due to trade agreements but domestic issues that will never get resolved with the divisive politics we have in this country. Why do you…

Came here for this-was not disappointed!

Boy would it be nice if we civilian off-road enthusiasts had access to such machinery—it would make our mud-pit extraction operations a heck of a lot more interesting.

Lets be honest... I don’t blame the locked 4x4 on 35's with 450hp for getting stuck and sunk in a residential back yard. Thats 100% driver error.

Or just do what I did and buy a new 4Runner. It is largely the same vehicle it was in 2010... and even in 2010 when it was released, it still wasn’t leading edge technology. They hold their value amazingly, too. I traded my 2010 4Runner (paid $32k) for $27,500 at 4 years old with 40k miles on another Toyota that I…

Wait until next year when Toyota releases the Corolla Type S+ Ringaroundtherosie Edition.

I would argue that there’s a distinct difference between volunteers buying tickets for an event that involves the charity they’re volunteering with and a for profit business helping a charity with a one off raffle.
