Yeah, the folks at Oshkosh must love him. Esp. since corporate types typically vote Republican... (not that any amount of cognitive dissonance will get thru to most conservative voters).

Lowering standards so you can meet them is peak Trump...

Chrysler ? Not my first choice, but minivans are great.

Californians should definitely double-check me, but I believe this implies they won’t be able to register these RVs in the state, either - no matter where they are purchased.

In eastern Washington state you say ? I’m shocked, SHOCKED at this information... \s

Not a fan of big Class A diesel pushers, but the vast majority of all RVs are driven a very small number of miles per year. Even incl Class A RVs driven to the Southwest, Florida, or the Rio Grande Valley of South Texas by northern “snowbirds,” I believe the avg is still only around 5,000 mi per year.

Passport, definitely. Roomy w/o being the size of a barn, Honda quality, and can be had cheaper than a 4Runner. 

Coincidentally, Spirit gave raises to its top executives on the same day that flight crews were notified about the furloughs.

Does this mean Mercedes will be bringing back a “Metris” mid-sized commercial van to the U.S. ? They were a very useful size for hauling stuff in the city...

For the automakers with dealers it will be critical to not let them sabotage their products once they get to dealers by adding $5,000, $10,000, $20,000 markups.

According to Texas Republicans, dats true. (Native Texan here)

Same. We bought a 2024 CR-V Hybrid a few months ago as we trusted Honda reliability more than Hyundai, and the RAV4 hybrid is way overpriced (dealer markups) and hard to get around here...

If the search for a good Lucid Air doesn’t bear any fruit, then try a hybrid instead. We love our new Honda CR-V Hybrid and even the top of the line model would be cheaper than the used Lucid. It’s comfortable, spacious w/o being too big, easy driving, and has plenty of sensible tech w/o flashy useless gizmos. Just an…

Which is why every state ought to allow mfg. dealerships that are basically showrooms with a chance to do test drives. Customer then sits down with a mfg rep and does an on-line order for what they want. Set price, no up-selling, no automatically-added options, no “special” offers for paint protectant, pin stripping or…

Absolutely wish I could buy another Honda Element. Sold the one I had quite awhile ago and I’d buy a new one in a heartbeat - to make a small, one-person camper out of. 

OK, update. Daughter and I stopped at the Buc-ee’s 0n IH-35 in Temple, TX last Sunday (end of July 4th weekend) and the line for the women’s restroom stretched halfway thru the whole damn store. We guessed it would’ve taken 30 min minimum. Never seen a anything like it outside a large sports / concert venue.

Agree. Get ‘em on tax evasion. That’s how a lot of mobsters eventually got prison sentences.

I’ll take issue with the one on Southern gas stations close to the Interstate. Stopped at a small one off of IH-10 in south Louisiana and they had some local folks making fantastic Cajun food / snacks in the attached convenience store. Mmmm...boudin.

Well, since corporations are people, I suppose 2nd Amend “rights” apply to them, too - amirite ?

But, but...I like Disney World 😅 and St. Pete Beach, and Destin, and lots of other places there.
