If it was a more finite market or something that dictated an honest need, I’d want more done about it. Since no one needs Land Cruise/C8/etc and there are other options widely available that fit the needs associated with those cars, I’m mostly in favor just let those little markets be dumb. A lot of stuff costs more…

I have trouble finding a good landing spot on letting a seller dictate future usage of the product you bought. While I think people who suck up good cars just for the sake of artificially reducing supply to sell them at a premium are assholes, I also don’t want Ford (et all) to get to tell me what I can do with my…

A town in New Hampshire did that (at least the libertarian part). Then the bears took over. Grafton, New Hampshire is one of my favorite FAFO stories. 

If Ford is bringing UK names to America, I want a Puma. I’m pretty sure that’s even a cross over there and it would match the animal theme that is a Mustang.

I’ll be surprised if he leaves on anything but a gurney. Has to make sure his wife stays out of jail when she tries to overthrow another election. The guy is further right than a lady who literally had the title of Handmaid in her cult. He has no soul, empathy, or conscience that would allow him the ability to know it…

Someone has to brave the attempt to get an image/gif in the kinja comments. I gave up on it long ago.

Yes, but the Senate has to run that prosecution for there to be any real consequences, which means getting Republicans to be willing to do anything about it. The GOP will burn down the nation before they even consider removing a staunch GOP justice.

Modern planned obsolescence at work. My 1975 stove is crazy easy to repair. My 2016 dishwasher required a similar jerry rig in order to replace some seals that went bad and started leaking water out the door. My 2017 Samsung smarty TV ran into a similar issue that it was going to require a hardware update to function…

Yes there are, but OP specifically said AWD, so that’s what I compared. Going FWD also makes 3-row SUVs cheaper, so there is always the price delta to consider. 

You pretty much have to for the base AWD Sienna. Toyota also doesn’t do orders, so you’ll have a deposit and then you’ll be hoping that what comes to the lot matches everything you want. In regards to the trim, to get similar features in the Toyota you’re probably hitting $57k and you’re also locked in to a 7…

The cheapest AWD Sienna within 300 miles of Houston is nearly $50k. All others are over $50k. There are multiple AWD Tellurides for under $40k. Minivans are great, but are they $10k+ better?

Gilmore Girls really went into a new direction. 

I recognize almost all of those words, but I don’t actually know what this statement is saying. Ur-PUA? day game?

Most of the Texas coasts are the kind of thing that is nice if you live within 2 hours to make a day trip. In terms of planning a real vacation, just go to Florida. 

Maybe that’s the new term for underpaid employees.

Covers better, goes on thicker, and it’s usually much cheaper per ounce for those that need to reapply. My beach go to is applying lotion first thing in the AM and then spray every hour to re-up. Then lotion in the afternoon and spray till sundown. As a rather pasty person, I find lotions to be more protective, but…

They remind me of a test vehicle that is trying to hide the real truck under it during testing. 

Look up Section 179 tax deductions. Heavy SUVs, pickups, and vans over 6,000 lb GVWR that get more than 50% business-use. Business-use is not defined by how much that payload is used. So this guy (or doctors & other business owners) can haul a box of papers around “for business” and then they get to write off the…

For my last international trip, a month in India, I checked a bag and packed necessities in the carryon. Checked luggage got lost, likely due to flight delays that changed my path but not my luggage’s path. Having a few necessities in my carry-on made it still work pretty easy and I learned that I will just mail…

Every time bold, open discrimination becomes illegal, HOAs & city councils are forced to come up with mostly stupid rules, like this, so they can legally harass certain people. Just like schools or businesses that ban afros/braids, backwards hats, long hair, tattoos, jewelry on men, pants on women, and so on. After…
