you can’t give someone the cash to pay the tax. because they have to pay tax on the cash to pay the tax. you never catch up.

that’s not nearly as good advertising.

yeah but the giveaway was just an advertisement for the vehicle. it wasn’t meant to flatter and impress the MVP. the players always knew the deal.

well it sounds like the point was fantasy nonsense though. what kind of point is that?

you can’t make NFL money but then live like a jalopnik. fame makes life much more expensive.

hey when you recycle blogs maybe give them a reread to see if they could use some editing or maybe at least update the misogyny.

I saw it at the L.A. Auto Show and the rear quarters look like a Camaro. I might be a typical internet moron, but I’m not wrong about the Camaro-ness. You are a typical fanboy.

also, uber is combined with ubereats. i don’t think Lyft is in food delivery.

i always check both and except for one time leaving a concert in utter traffic mayhem, Lyft has always been cheaper for me.

you might not, but i do. i have. priorities change. sometimes it takes a little while to recognize a sunk cost fallacy. don’t get me wrong, i think it’s a good thing to be wary of a transplant patient vehicle. but anyone that thinks people don’t waste their time and money and then snap out of it have never been in a…

well what i didn’t mention was that it was the first year the CHR was sold in the US and only the second year that they were sold anywhere. there were no used or rebuilt transmissions for it anywhere, so this was for an entire new transmission and dealership labor rate. i assume a CVT for an Altima or whatever is…

I was quoted $14k and a 2 month wait from a Toyota dealership for a CVT failure on a CH-R at 70k miles. I was told that the transmission isn’t serviceable. I have doubt that’s true, but that’s what I was told. Toyota covered it under warranty and gave me a loaner for about 8 weeks. My anecdotal experience is that they…

NP. My only complaint is that I’d rather have a ‘72 Lincoln Mk IV.

You keep saying it failed but again I ask, what were the goals of the Jones Act? Because they weren’t to produce the ships that we need or to shift transport to more efficient methods or enhance emergency response or even to expand commerce. What was its purpose, and did it or does it achieve that purpose? That’s the…

what were the goals? having lived in TX and heard the debates on letting trucks with lower safety standards from Mexico and Central America drive on our roads, my gut reaction is to defend the Jones act.

the Prius CVT is still a planetary diff, it’s not like the CVTs that suck the worst. I’m going to test drive it, at least. 

to be fair, the bastards were driving a VW bus. they would not have been able to do 90 in that mall parking lot.

if i remember right, the Forte GT has 200 hp and a DCT and you can get it with ventilated seats. i test drove one, and it was a very quick little car. i might have bought it if the dealer hadn’t posted a fake price online. this was before i heard about kia/hyundai engine reliability issues.

it would literally take you two weeks to get used to being ankle-deep in shit, too. VW is making changes instead of doubling down. 

ok but i don’t see anyone loving on the GR86.
