Volvo’s are modern cars, their reliability is just fine. The marginal uptick you’re going to get in reliability from a BMW/MB/Audi is going to be negated by the higher price (even used) and more expensive maintenance. A 2016 XC60 T6 is going to be like $8k cheaper than a 2016 X5 xDrive35i. 

Yes, but then you don’t have a rope with which to descend on the other side. You’d have to throw two ropes over the wall. Everybody knows drug dealers can’t afford two ropes.

Fuck, I wish we only had to worry about Trump knowing the difference between rock and mountain climbing. At this point I’m not sure he can distinguish between a rock and a mountain. 

Either that or they’re just very, very bad at satire

Hard to feel sorry for a guy making $2m/year to play football when he gets traded... because he’s a football player... and the point of football is to trade players in order to assemble the best team possible to win games. It would be incredibly stupid for the Pats to turn down AB based on the premise that ‘They told…

Living in Oregon, I just adore how all the UO fans clamor and jump to Mariota’s defense. It’s all ‘it’s not his fault Tennessee doesn’t run good plays.’ Nobody here can admit that maybe, just maybe, Mariota might not have the chops to make it in the NFL.

more than half the length of the field

I have the DM-V2's with 20's on our Volvo XC60 (I desperately wanted to go smaller, but didn’t feel like forking over another $600 for new wheels). They’re incredible - hands down some of the best snow tires I’ve ever used.

Volvo has sold 629 V60's and 732 V60 CC’s through September. They’ve also only been on the market for about five months, but Volvo is selling more in 2019 than they did in 2018.

V60's sell like hotcakes, I can’t for the life of me figure out why these manufacturers don’t expand into the cheaper, smaller wagon segment. Jaguar is like ‘Wagons? Here, how about a $70k sportbrake! Wait, why is nobody buying these?!’

Also misleading, Reuters never states if the 75% figure accounts for inflation (it probably doesn’t), which was approx. 18% between 2010 to 2019.

Similarly, the diatribe of ‘You’re not poor, I’m poor’ is tired and overused. Just because the guy probably hasn’t lived on the street or given blowjobs for crack doesn’t mean he hasn’t had a few hard days in his life. I mean, he almost fucking died, which is worse than I’ve ever had it. You’re entirely correct, that…

I’d say we pick up the flag on this play. Your alternatives are:

How is 25 miles stupid? The average commute is just under 30 mins - that means the average person can likely get all the way to work on EV alone. I’d love to have half my commute done without using a drop of gas. 

My wife trains using Zwift. I can confirm the graphics make me want to puke. 

Elway and Magic Johnson serve as a stark reminder that being incredibly talented at a sport does NOT make one uniquely qualified to coach or manage.

He’s probably trying to force a fumble. These ‘tackles’ where the defense stands a dude up and tries to strip the ball from him are stupid, dangerous and annoying (not to mention it never, ever works). 

Seattle fucked themselves when they put I-5 underground, in the middle of the city, with literally nowhere to expand. I lived there for two years, left, started to miss it and then recently drove through rush hour at 4 PM on a Tuesday. Fuck that city.

When the season was over, they brought the study to him. It did not go well.

I’d kill to see a hatchback Mazda3 with enough battery to get a sub-5 zero to 60 time. Oof.
