Yeah, I have seen a lot of people helping our hapless drivers around town - we Portlanders are generally pretty nice. I too have lent a hand in helping neighbors get out of parking spots, but only when I was pretty sure that they had decent tires/sense once they actually got on the road. Because in many ways (if…

Yeah, they are like a series of icy speed bumps. Many of the MAX crossings looked like that over the past few days, and I have no idea why the plow crews dont lower the plow and scrape them flat. I saw two trucks raise their plow and drive over them, with their sand spreading trailers bouncing like crazy after them.…

I don’t think it would be possible to badge-engineer a Citroen DS. Really, what other manufacturer can you imagine making such a lovely and quirky car?

Nope, white people involved in widespread criminal activity are called by other glorifying names, including: mobster, mafioso, racketeer, outlaw, criminal mastermind etc..

Thanks for the info, and good to know how this really works in practice. As I  own a couple older Mercedes, it is more than just a hypothetical...I might need to reach out to MC Classic Center soon. 

I am super jealous. While visiting in Wolfsburg I saw an XL1 at the Autostadt.

Yeah, I have heard that rumor about Mercedes having every single part for every car they made, but not sure if people have really put it to the test. Does it really mean they will re-manufacture any NLA part?

This here is underappreciated. Have my star.

Yeah, I did a double take when I read that. People think the Bible is non-fiction? Also, the Bible is full of violence, esp Genesis, Exodus, and Joshua. It is like a training manual.

I have the same concerns: few real relateable and competent Dems that the party has cultivated. Perhaps Corey Booker, Julián Castro, or Tusli Gabbard?

Reporters really need to get down to his level and ask questions in a way that he can grasp. Mostly by making them smaller, for his small hands and limited comprehension.

Yeah, privatization of public assets to friends is pretty much the M.O. of both powerful and petty dictators around the world.

You had me at “the stewardess and pilot go down” ;). But then the story took and unexpected turn. How does one lose an engine!?

VW TDI - because this is Monopoly and you know they are going to cheat anyway.

This is a very valid point. It will be a far away day in the future that this car is in production.

Really pretty simple - in pretty much any EV you can program it to preheat at a given time, and be warm when you get in. This works best when plugged in, otherwise you are reducing driving range. They use either heat pumps or electric resistance heaters. Also, seat heaters.

Were the key in the ignition and the locked doors visible from the street too?

Your example is a perfect summary of policing in many jurisdictions:

Yeah, this a core issue. It seems like an unwarranted search, as the officer has no way of knowing whether the doors were locked without coming on the property. Not being a lawyer and all that, this seems like quite the overreach. It sounds like remote-start is ok, but having a physical key in the ignition is part of…
