Even “bad” cars have their merit. Boring cars have their upsides. If we were going to erase a car, then it would have to have had damaged the automobile landscape forever. There was nothing more damaging that this:

What you have to understand about Conservatism is at its core, it is about preserving an in-group protected by the law but not bound by it, and an out-group bound by the law but not protected by it.

So the girl repeatedly assaulted him, and that leads you to believe that the guy is a murderer?

I agree that this looks SUPER bad for him, but in his position I would 100% not talk to the police either. There are zero upsides and many, many, many downsides. 

If the police ever want to interview you for something where there’s even the remotest chance you could be a suspect, you need to lawyer up. Cops are interested in clearing cases and naming suspects for DA”s to charge, not necessarily in getting to the truth. 

Wrongo pal. If you’re in any sort of legal situation you’re foolish if you can afford a lawyer and don’t utilize it.

“and lawyered up right away”

Yes, it is terrible when people have the nerve to exercise their Constitutional rights and it clearly means they are guilty rather than following their attorney’s advice.

Garmin has made a truck specific GPS for years that allows you to input the height and weight of your truck. It will then restrict your routes to locations where your truck can’t go.

Truck GPS programs do. It’s the idiots who rely on car GPS while driving a commercial truck.

I’d wager that’s been discussed and there’s a pissing match over who should pay for that work to be done. 

I know what happened - *rev* *rev* *glance*... other car - *rev* *rev* *nod*... Followed by two slight burnouts and the 2 cars remembering they are Fords, and therefore genetically close enough to Mustangs to act like they’re at a cars and coffee.

All of this was just awful.

I am also confused by this “To get wider handlebars I needed a new stem.” 

It’s the last attractive Acura, and in spite of its front wheel drive it performs very well, but in the end it’s just a 13-year-old Honda with a stick. The last time I got a manual Honda I paid less than half of that.

Sorry, not buying it. This was likely the safest time this could have been done. As you said, hardly anyone is on the road. I’m not buying the Alex Roy argument either, “They could have hit a truck carrying precious medical supplies”. Well, yeah but I’ll bet that’s statistically pretty low. I think most of the…

Wartburg! Come on, give us a hard one!

Eh, I think the Ridgeline is way overrated. Sure, it’s very useful, but so is any other midsize or fullsize truck. It only rides a bit nicer than the other midsizers (I think it doesn’t ride any better than most new fullsize trucks) and doesn’t really get any better gas mileage but gives up a lot of towing & offroad…

I don’t really have anything against a Ridgeline, but I don’t understand why it’s a better choice than a Tacoma/Colorado/Ranger.  And I’m completely ignoring the bigger options (which I can see why people wouldn’t want a bigger truck) that tend to be better deals when it comes to initial purchase price.

Ehhhhh... That’s exactly what it is, a bro truck. It’s bought by bros that are more interested in image and the jeep brand than a good truck for a good deal. Bros do exactly that. They spend too much on a truck because of how it looks. The people that actually want a good deal on a good, capable truck buy a different…

make it a 2 door and I would be sold.
