Elon is calling it as he sees it.  Bernie is now wealthy himself, with his own houses and book royalties and all. Funny how now he wants to tax the ULTRA wealthy... now that he is just wealth. Funny how the math changes the more rich the communists get.

True, but those assessments are typically done once every few to several years.

I toyed with getting the Roush super charger for my 5.0 when it was new. I think that upped power to about 500hp or so. My primary use for my F-150 is towing two different trailers though. I’m not sure long term towing with a supercharger is beneficial to the drive train and I assumed the mpg hit would be significant…

Simple... Buy a gas mower out of state... Bring it home to CA. Problem solved.

20 years ago? No longer a factor on your record.

Couple that with trillions in new spending printing even more money and the inflation is the double whammy.

““it is clearly true that the American right is increasingly willing to accept or condone violence as a means of expanding and protecting their social and political power.”

Yet Delta and American with significant flights in and out of Florida didn’t have a shitload of cancellations on their florida flights. Explain that one completely away.

I’m on my second Spyder after years on two wheels. There simple isn’t a two wheeler out there that can tour like a spyder. I can carry more, and in the rain the damn thing is unstoppable. No, it’s not a dual sport, but for the average touring, the Spyder is pretty awesome at it. Do I miss leaning? Sure. Do I miss lane…

Spyders are a shit load cheaper than their Harley or Goldwing trike conversion cousins.

Excursions were loved by owners and still highly sought after - especially the diesel Excursion. Plenty of people tow trailers that are not 5th wheels that also need the third row seating of a large SUV. It’s not like Ford sold millions of these - About 162k were built.

Not as much as using the heater.

For the last year we haven’t put gas on our Chevy Volt which depending on time of year gets 58 or 38 miles of range out of the battery. Do we take long trips in it? Sure and that’s what is great about a PHEV... But 100 miles range? That will be stellar and I’d buy the Mazda if I was ready for a new car as we have a…

Yep...Lots of horror stories from RV owners who rent their RVs and how the RV rental insurance through the service screws them.

Thor owns the majority of RV brands and has dozens of manufacturing sites....

If a newer manufacturer popped up or if Thor wanted to build a new high tech factory and build higher quality RVs... They could do that. The RVs would cost more obviously. They are the whale... they don’t need to change eh.

Not always true. We’ve had issues with ours, but it is well maintained and cared for and stored under covered storage. It doesn’t get rained on, hailed on, snowed on or the sun beating on the roof or roof sealants. Tends to slow the progression of leaks. Already had the roof cleaned and resealed at the 3 year mark as…

Torch gives you the ban hammer into the greys if you voice a rational counter to his mindset. Ask me how I know.

People weren’t driving during the pandemic lockdowns... many are still driving far less than before as they remain working from home... Less gas use, less maintenance needs overall due to less wear and tear. People should be comfortable waiting longer to buy another car no?

Half-assed sense.

HP and Torque went up? Perhaps they thought it was worthy to make larger given that?
