lol you missed the reality that we the taxpayers already paid $600k when the army bought it. Why didn't the army keep it? What do we think we're done with wars where we'll need armored vehicles?

Yes it was such a deal they absolutely needed it.

all that gap leaving seems to have left you a little butthurt ... sorry bro I'll respect yo'gap

playing chicken and knowing you'll win the insurance battle is always a valid strategy. I would also suggest having a car with a few dings is another way to ensure that the guy in the shiny leased BMW/Audi/Lexus/Acura will begrudgingly let you and your 150k+ mile beater in front of him

you may see it as rationalizing screwing everyone else over...

I seriously subscribed to your traffic theory for about 6 months after moving out to Boston... I was there, not switching lanes erratically, leaving a space between me and the next car, trying my best to smooth out those traffic waves... but after some time and having that gap filled in by people trying to surf the…

Your theory might work except in Boston everyone is a wanker and everyone is trying to screw everyone else around them... this is a good day

Reader Iamopenlyjudgingyou says it best:

Don't wait until your lane ends to get over. Don't slow way down either. Merge in at a good speed, do it as soon as you can, and you'll help prevent traffic jams.

needs V-TEC !!

the death of the ford ranger, the fattening of the Toyota Tacoma, etc...

maybe but can you tell me it had a smooth turbine like torque delivery? and it didn't sound like a sewing machine?

kinda feel this way about all Subaru engines... would rather of had a Toyota I-4 in there, maybe with a turbo option

Stereo head units without bluetooth or at least an AUX input.

Well you illustrate my point exactly, you take great pain to explain why I can't make a "Thanks Obama" joke because clearly you are offended when anyone says anything bad about your dear leader.

I was all like CP and then I saw 5.5 Kilobucks and said ya' know what that ain't too bad and I know a guy who will give me a sticker ;0

What is it with your libtards do you like hear someone poking a little fun at your dear leader and run to defend and denounce all who dare speak against him?
