Seems to be the trajectory of every social media site/app. At a certain point they go corporate, and crack down on anything controversial.

Yet another story of a citizen who wants to get into a pissing contest with a cop. So simple: get out of the car and walk back to the cop’s car and take your trespass notice, then go home. Nope. Gotta force the cop’s hand.

If it had any other name, literally any other name, the reaction would’ve been “Ford EV, meh.” And that would’ve been it. Even Ford gave their original design the “meh” and started over with the concept of a Mustang EV. 

Yes, I used to sell Hyundais. You’d be surprised how many people came in thinking we were the Honda store.

Do we really have to get outraged all over again about stuff from 20-30 years ago just because some kid got woke and discovered Google? Just because YOU didn’t know that lovable family guy Jimmy Kimmel had a much raunchier past as a comedian does mean I have to be mad about it today. 

I think most white people flying the confederate flag aren’t really racist, they just kind of see the flag in kind of a generic “southern pride” way, like family, apple pie, baseball, and pickup trucks. Just like most people who celebrate Halloween don’t really believe in demons or worship Satan, it’s just a sanitized

Even at this point, 70 years later, are there many original parts left on these planes?

My dad inherited a 1978 Ford Thunderbird from my grandfather - dark blue with a white top and white leather interior. It was in mint condition. All I remember is is that I wasn’t allowed to drive it to the prom and I was pissed.

Yes, the Bronco Sport also in the pic has been totally ignored, lol

I think if you live in a typical suburban neighborhood then you kind of agree to live a certain type of life, even with no HOA involved. So yeah, 12 marginally functional vehicles crammed onto one property is a bit much, lol. Time to move

Why is it that the only black lives that matter are the low rent street thugs with long rap sheets that violently refuse to get arrested yet again?

Ford is desperate to get that same sort of cool Tesla has. They are wildly misspending money to do that.

Maybe Ford has figured out the ket part of autonomous driving: the stopping. I had thought that with adaptive cruise and automated emergency braking that we had figured out how to make cars see obstructions in front of them, but Tesla obviously hasn’t. 

Toyota has a long history of overcharging for underperforming cars. And they always come up with the esoteric excuses about the subtleties of the handling or whatever, that most regular drivers would never notice.

What part of the black experience are you revering and want acceptance for? The lack of education? The crime? The poverty? The fatherless homes?

2021 is the 15th year for the IS on the Toyota N platform. So by the time the Lexus/Mazda comes along, this car will be pushing 20 years with the same chassis and engine/transmission. Only Toyota can get away with this.

I’ll go with the 2.5L V6 in the Ford Contour SVT

Ticketing, fines, the lottery, cigarettes taxes etc are really ways for the state to get its welfare money back from the people the state gave it to

I will agree that the primary function of traffic stops is now revenue, under the guise of public safety. Lightbulb infractions could be solved with cameras on the cop cars registering the plate, and a button push on the cop’s computer. A simple warning or ticket could be mailed out, or better yet, mail that $5 bulb

What a great marketing idea! A convenience that convinces you NOT to buy their product. Smh
