My thoughts exactly.  This is the sort of automotive dipshittery I always support.  NP

Hell Yeah!  If it’s not already too loud, a quick exhaust job will fix that... like dual exhaust with cherry bombs.  Starting this thing up should set off car alarms, which if you’ve never had a ride that does that, I will tell you never gets old.  Two taps on the gas, turn the key, symphony of stupid.

It does sound like it’s worth it. Cruises are at least that or more and don’t sound anywhere near as much fun.

This. Census says about 39% of the US lives in cities of 50,000 or more. That’s 128 million people. I think an awful lot of us are apartment and condo dwellers and a lot of us park on the street. It’s going to be a long time before we get enough chargers in parking garages and then along the sidewalks to let us top up…

Same, I think a lot of people can’t afford their own house with a garage and charger. What is this, the Simpsons?

This is an ad for Pizza Hut. Nothing more.

This. You can’t look at these results in a vacuum. You need to see the context. I worked in an office in 2019, and I went remote a few months before the pandemic. When I worked in an office, I would often eat lunch out because it let me leave the building, get some fresh air, and stretch my legs. 

It looks like something a drunk college kid would throw together at 3am.

Yup. This is when you’re turning the handle on the Jack In The Box.

I was thinking exactly this. Five years and approaching 60k miles is the traditional time to unload a German car while everything is still working.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who sees these and has to debate their inner monologue that these are in fact not kicker ramps meant to be jumped a la Gone in 60 seconds. 

“It is one thing for it to promote cow’s milk,” said Physicians Committee President Neal Barnard in a statement sent to The Takeout. “It is quite another thing to mock the products that many nonwhite Americans choose for health reasons.”

Exactly. The CCP got what they wanted. Decades and R&D, mostly for free or by stealing it outright. Foreign companies need to start making plans to exit the Chinese market and stop sharing intellectual data because the CCP has zero interests other than itself.

I wonder how many of the people who actually make those business decisions actually care. The top executives who are signing off on international investments are likely quite independently wealthy by that point and will remain rich, whether or not their entire industry collapses. The only way I could see Chinese…

Agree. GM’s R&D should take place in Detroit, where IP-intensive systems should be built and sent to China for final assembly. They may reverse engineer a lot of it, but it will take them time, money, and maybe result in an 80 percent solution.

6000 grams of sodium is 13 lbs, and 2,300 grams (“the recommended daily limit”) is about 5 lbs... That doesn’t sound right, does it?

Or someone who desperately needed their state to not remove Home Ec from the curriculum.

Dining out five days a week because it was actually cheaper than buying groceries was a fun time

Same, though not a Dodge I have a 2020 Chrysler 300S got a cal from the local dodge lot about buying it to boost their used inventory, I went up only because I said I would but had NO intention of selling, told him flat out that A I wasn’t interested in selling and B the only way I would would be to get the same model…

You’re spot on about the environment in 2022 when money was literally free so almost any investment would’ve effectively been a winner. Now it’s much different, which makes it a lot harder for startups or smaller companies.
