Even more than that. 1 adult who’s holding the hands of 2 kids would be safer than 2 adults letting their kid dance around on the sidewalk. Every little situation like that is something to judge when driving and continues to get more complex the more dense the city. 

It’s a shadow campaign to get more people to sign up for Neuralink. Don’t need fingers when you can drive with your mind. 

As a non-Californian, Santa Barbara to San Diego and the ocean to the mountains is basically all “LA” to me.

I’d argue being spread out adds to the car culture. Much like Houston, it’s a massive area that requires driving everywhere, so there are way more people attached to their cars and cars in general. Houston flooding being a literal car killer, I’m sure hurts things relative to comparable markets. 

That’s what make LA the probably correct answer. The weather is ideal for any car, there are tons of roads where driving is enjoyable and lots of places worth a few hour drive to get to, it’s a very diverse area, and most importantly, a bunch of rich people who can afford whatever they want in a car then hand me down…

Then with 1 or 2 kids, the Charger is still an excellent option too. One of the best sedans for fitting car seats in the back and still getting the cavernous trunk. 

Sounds like removing dealer protectionist laws would be more beneficial than allowing manufacturers to dictate post-sales terms of use. 

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?
