Jill Whelan, nice touch.

I just want to take a moment to call out the use of the word “sustainably.”  

I’m pretty much okay with anybody and everybody naked unless you’re one of those folks that really ought to be paying for two seats.  And even then it’s not like I have to look at you so don’t sweat it.

“Bare Fare,” whazzat? Do I fly cheaper if I go naked? Prolly speed up the security process, no piercings to explain an’ if the metal defector don’t go off nobody asks me to bend over an spread em, right?

I’m happy enough to complain until someone gets their head out of their ass to fix this aggressive ad system.

That engine doesn’t make terrific power and from a performance standpoint, kind of lets the Celica’s sorta-sporty nature down. Then again, it’s pretty torquey for its size, go-fast bits are available (but let’s be real, it’s a 22R, huge power isn’t really its thing) and at barely 2300 lbs there’s less for the engine…

If I still lived in a big city like DC, this would be shortlisted for my garage.  iQs make finding parking a lot simpler.

My son installed an EV charger on the home he was renting and when he moved, he left it installed because he had already purchased a new, better one for his new home.

It’s a mixed bag at best, and while working on my truck’s seat was a doddle like you describe, working on Hyundai and Dodge Caravan seats left me breathless and impotently furious.  You’d think minivan seats would be easier but mine sure weren’t.  Then again those were the first ones I ever did so it could just have…

I normally say NO EFFING WAY to someone else’s project, but damn it looks clean.  It ain’t stock but that engine is definitely factory, and it looks perfectly comfortable in there.

Hydrogen is still almost entirely sourced from fossil feedstocks, so if you’re looking at the current paradigm for deliverance, keep looking.

I get the virtue signaling but I’d like to also posit that sometimes instead of virtue signaling, it may just be virtue. Evidence: before I got a Prius, I had a Honda Civic Hybrid. It is indistinguishable from the regular Civic except for a small badge on the trunk, which I did not replace when it fell off. Some EVs…

It’s a lot easier than you think. You may have built it up in your head to be far more difficult and scary than it really is.

You’re the more uncommon individual who actually needs a truck, at least for now.

Why own and fuel twice as much vehicle as you need, when you could stash the part you don’t usually need out of the way?

What about them? Cheap trailers shipped to you in a box. No worries.

One of the two best days of a boat owner’s boat ownership: the day you get it, and the day you get rid of it.

Folds up to about the size of a folded ping-pong table, and used approximately as often except when you want the trailer, you really want it and the ping-pong table, if it’s completely buried under mounds of garage fodder, you’ll just throw your hands up and play Xbox instead.

Oh yes.  The closer-coupled it is, the more quickly it goes awry.

I’m not sure how I did. I mean - I will, Lowe’s is a far, far better choice than Home Depot on its worst day but I’d still dump both of them in favor of Ace Hardware.
