Also, I like my presidents smarter than me. That doesn’t happen when they’re Republican.

Growing? What took so long.

I don’t know if the Equinox is bougie enough for Target

How the fuck this could ever be a problem is beyond me. Then again, some people get high pointed on a decorative rock just pulling in the damn lot.

Yes, $2000 per month during striking. $8000 per month during regular work. Which is absolutely absurd if you’re taking home that much money that you don’t have a safety net. They are living way, WAY above their means if they don’t have an emergency fund.

The couple described in the article is taking home $8k per month. In the parts of this country where automobile factories are located, that’s really good money.

Except that not using a truck to full capacity often consists of somebody daily-driving a crew cab longbed by themselves. Sure, the driver feels superior with their high seating position and 3-4 tons of metal surrounding them! The problem is that everybody else on the road can barely see past you, whilst hoping to God…

Tier 1 workers make more than I do, as an IT professional with a bachelor of science degree and 20 years of experience., and they probably get as good or better health benefits, too..

Came for this, not disappointed, although my version is a little shorter:

Rollcages are unsafe in road-going cars as they are more likely to cause a traumatic brain injury. They are not designed for use without a certified helmet used in concert with them.

Most people I know that have installed 5 point harnesses end up never using them due to the hassle over a regular 3point seatbelt.

80,000 dollar trucks are objects i will never need or understand

I feel bad for both parties involved. Because GM is looking at health care costs rising 3X the rate of inflation and I'm sure that's going to catch up to them. And the UAW in one of the few semi strong unions left in this country and is trying to hold onto their members benefits and salary.  Yes GM is posting strong…

My Honda Civic weights 1200kg and is pushed by 120HP.

For real, though, loud pipes don’t save lives. 

What does it look like upside down in a ditch on fire?

If one of these cars commits a traffic violation in autonomous mode, how is that handled? Who gets the ticket? How are “points” distributed in regards to the (presumably identical) fleet and what happens when too many “points” are accumulated?

Playing cards on the spokes will take care of that!

This is the right idea, but I think you’ve got the output backwards. Gyroscopic forces from a spinning engine tend to make the bike more stable, and thus more resistant to quickly turning in.
