This is correct on both comments.

About damn time. They are going to sell like hotcakes but I fear dealer markups already

So normally I would come on here and call conservatives a bunch of pejoratives, but I’ve had a number of social media interactions that make me think perhaps people legitimately don’t understand how economics and government budgets work. So this is going to be a rare, good-faith attempt from me to explain this stuff…

I mean the GOP is basically 100% victim mentality.

The US is the biggest bully since the pre 1940's British Empire. We are not ripped off or exploited by anyone. When our military or dollar-policy says “Jump”, other countries ask “How high?”. This current Administration has such a victim-mentality, or more accurately, exploits the massive desire of the populace to…

“We may have short term some little pain, and people understand that. But long term, the United States has been ripped off by virtually every country in the world,” he said.

I just can’t get behind EVs yet. Especially given I live in the armpits butt**le of the country (WV). People actually destroy electric chargers and vandalize EVs just because they’re not a lifted Ford F150 in the color ‘Mud’. My daily driver, VW Passat, had the windshield smashed and was keyed simply for having a…

I am the outlier here. I have the Premium RWD Extended Range, I drive 75 a day when I go in the office, 3-4 times a week. Purchased in Sept 2023, current odo is 18500. Avg a little over 1100 miles a month.

I can’t imagine riding in the US today given the size, speed, and sightlines of modern cars combined with the fact that many drivers are habitually distracted.

It’s the same as cars, eventually the manual will be such a niche that it wouldn’t really matter anyways. that said, I would like to learn on a standard bike as both my cars are manual, but for some reason, I can’t mentally wrap my head around shifting on a Bike lol

I am convinced that if there was a vote that we could get a really good universal health care system (like Germany or Finland) AND better public transportation network where all we’d have to give up are the fucking guns, it would not have a chance of passing.

I drove a lot in Rural CA an AZ and if there was a issue I would never go up to a house for assistance; there is a reason these people live in the boonies and it usually involves paranoia.  

Hey, just because you’re not a chickenshit coward afraid of your own shadow and will fire at anyone or anything because you’re so paranoid doesn’t mean... er.. shit, I don’t know how to finish this sentence, so I’m just gonna end it...... here.

This country’s gun culture is fucking off-the-rails absurd.
