Leave the dealership if they don’t give you the info you ask for and find one that will. The reputable dealer will love to earn your business.

When I bought my truck I had built a table of different loan rates/terms and final sale price and brought it in in a notebook so I would know exactly what I was looking at and the perfect combination of payment/term/rate. I ended up getting somewhat close, but didn’t get the rate I wanted thanks to the age of the car…

Medians are what Mustang drivers run over (or into) when leaving a cars & coffee event. Everyone should know that!

The story about the guy claiming the dealership was out to get him because the payment was higher than he wanted really hits home. When I was on the sales floor we’d run into that CONSTANTLY.

Smart charging stations could even theoretically use the EV’s battery capacity as storage resource, discharging from the EV when the grid needs energy. In areas where cars remain parked longer than required to fully charge (for example, airport garages), there’s a lot of potential.

You must be joking about computer advancement having been relatively easy. The feat of scaling transistors with lithography to nano scales is not in any way easy nor did it happen over night. Yes thermodynamics are difficult to overcome but even with lithium technology we have achieved a great deal. It is only through…

I don’t want to interrupt my travel plans every 250 miles to sit and charge my car for 6+ hours.

The reduction in the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% is “drastic.” And if you think those funds will be used for business-growing investments or paid out to the employees as additional salary, I’ve got a bridge in Brooklyn I’m willing to sell you.

It survived in the Senate version, and got repealed in the House version. So, it depends what happens when they combine them into one final bill. Since the Senate is the one that is more likely tougher to get the budget through, the current thought is that the Senate version is more likely, but we’ll see.

Filtering is what the rest of the world calls lanesplitting & probably a better term for it in general.

“Instead of fixing it, I drove around for a couple weeks using my brights, because I’m a lazy asshole.” 

I think some kid put a storage container on top of a roller skate and Bangle saw it and said, “That’s it!” Drugs may or may not have been involved.

A car with a functional drivetrain and shit bodywork is a functional, but ugly car you can drive.

I’m sure he edited out all the time he spent looking at Youtube videos of upholstering car seats and stuff.

I wish i could star you times ten.

Exactly! What could possibly go wrong?

My truck has power windows and locks, which is a few too many power options for me.

I get what you are saying, but if a driver is distracted by a motorcycle/phone call/text message/pretty girl/cool car, etc, and then rear ends someone because they were distracted, 100% of the blame falls on the distracted driver. One of those things above actually lead to me rear ending someone years ago in my…

Check out this blog post I wrote this year, addresses much of what you state here. As for the guy crashing because of me... that seems far fetched considering how far away from him I was. It is hard to see in the video, but I saw a phone in his hand as I passed. More likely he was looking at his phone and not me.
