I thought that depended on the manufacturer. I think basically all rebates are based on when you take delivery and not when you place the order. So, whether you get the rebate could depend a lot more on when it arrives versus if you order it. Been a while, but I’ve known people who got a surprise discount because it…

It may be called the Ram Dakota, but there are no guarantees.

Pretty sure my whole midwestern family uses soda but had friends that said pop. If they are over 70, it becomes sodie.

Generally, yes. However, Dems are way more willing to eat their own, even if it is to the party’s detriment. The only way someone in the GOP gets pushed out is if they don’t support Trump once.

Does it take the paint off too at all? Or does it act more like those little magic eraser things?

The biggest problem with that is the people who wanted this are too stupid to know why things are more expensive. They’ll be blaming Biden/Dems for the next 4 years for anything that goes wrong while praising Trump for anything that goes well in their life. Any real correlation or causation will be completely ignored. 

It could also depend on how the tax credits factor into reported transaction pricing. If the choices are either CR is lying or car dealerships found a way to play with the accounting, I think the accounting play is a pretty easy choice.

Give me 1 single reason why it is better to make hundreds of total strangers merge at an unmarked, uncoordinated location in the middle of a highway that many of them could be unfamiliar with? How is that safer or more efficient in any way for everyone on the road than merging at the location clearly marked with big…

You are half correct. The chokepoint will always be there, but getting in 2 lines and using a proper zipper at the coned off location makes it so everyone at the merge is moving the same speed. Using an arbitrary point in the road means that you have 2 lines moving at different speeds, which is where the risk comes…

No fuck you and everyone else who is too stupid to utilize a zipper merge like a functioning adult who wants to be part of a functioning society. The only thing your terrible thinking accomplishes is making the lane closure occur even sooner and at an unmarked location based your arbitrary point in the line. Everyone…

They make for a pretty nice rental, though. I still can’t imagine picking one over the Suburban/Expedition with massive price difference. I wouldn’t be shocked if many of them on the road got some kind of nice lease deal. 

Isn’t there an old Jalopnik article that says the other purpose to these on rear tires is so the driver can see the back wheels spinning? 

I love this thing and I want it now (just not for that kind of money). It is 100% the car I could pull up in that my wife is embarrassed by while the fellow dads give me high fives.

Cyber truck. May as well lean into the rolling dumpster fire the new admin is.

I’m not sure Honda wants any of this. 

At least this is an upgrade from the other times Autopilot didn’t even see the train.

In reality, yes, Mitsubishi is tied to Nissan. But the QOTD is fantasy, and we get say whatever we want.

1st - Things have been getting weird with Toyota. Two emissions issues with engines, falsified records with safety testing, the turbo V6s getting a big recall, and the new Taco getting a big transmission recall.

Merge Mitsubishi with Toyota. Then keep Toyota the compliance brand, Lexus the luxury brand, and Mitsu the performance brand with the resource backing of Toyota.

Are regular people even able to work on these kinds of cars with traditional shop tools? Or do they require a huge supply of special tools & software from the manufacturer to realistically fix almost anything?
