the auto industry was hell on the horse tack suppliers

convenience stores are already changing to offer more services, they don’t really make money on gas. The best ones will convert to charging stations or offer both. hell, our neighborhood convenience store has never sold gas and its independently owned and successful.

an important factor is what the truck drives like with payload or trailer. You don’t really want to be at or near capacity all the time, or for long. So 37k max trailer tow = comfortable 22k tow.

general laziness and apathy

I had a coworker with a Cadillac ATS and his screen bubbles just like that after 2 years or so. Turned in the lease after 4 years and they didn’t say anything. Never affected the actual function, just cosmetic in this case

lolololol

the prudent thing is to disclose any and all news, good or bad. its hard to believe that awareness of an investigation like that would be “no news”

One time, I called the police on a drunk driver in the exact scenario you described. They couldn’t even be bothered to check. Dude ended up driving past the police station I shit you not. I’ll never call again tbh

I have a theory that monster grills is the easiest way to make all the adaptive cruise emergency braking parking sensors work. no data to back that up.

not true

the headphone jack thing is still bullshit and continually pisses me off every night when i want to charge my phone and listen to something on my headphones.

we should definitely pay similar money for that kind of forward thinking technology

you know, even though i’m not sure I love it, those middle grill nostrils are definitely not far off from the modern concept above. more family resemblance than I initially thought, anyway.

Your first part about the motors going bad was really only true in the first couple of years of model s production (12-13). And the second part is just incorrect 

And their limited range will be the reason they don’t sell enough of them 

it makes no more or less sense than my B8 Audi S4 that had 3.0T emblazoned on the sides of its 3.0 liter SUPERCHARGED engine

Charger Chargers

and literally next year will be the beginning of the 20s. I assume you were talking about the pre-great depression era.

They wouldn’t even have to rename the Dodge Charger

I like them, but when I was shopping for TJs I kept seeing these still selling for over 20k at least. Seems steep to me but if there are buyers, more power to them.
