good to know.

My 87 323 was far less rusty in 1995 than my 2007 3 was in 2009, let alone today.  I’ve never seen a Mazda that wasn’t rusty - and I’ve looked at literally hundreds of them.  They’re rusty on the new lot at the punch holes 

I’m about to go buy another Mazda of one ilk or the other to replace my rusty 3 - which was the least rusty one I could find for my daughter a few years ago - I sure hope you’re right, cuz she don’t want anything I suggest - Mazda or nothing for the princess.

Citations were FAR better built and FAR better cars.

Until Mazda’s don’t immediately begin returning to elemental iron beginning shortly after retail delivery, they will not be “Premium” to me or most people.

they were actually worse than ‘that bad’.  Actual garbage.

I had a 91 with the 3.1.  Steaming pile of hot garbage.

I drove a Town Car as one of the first Lyft and Uber drivers in Chicago for 2 years. People thought I was crazy for driving a Town Car vs a Prius or a Camry or, basically anything else. Those people were 100% wrong. AMA

Well said, and well written. I’m a proponent of EV’s for SOME portion of application. I work in the Warehousing industry - the industry largely converted to electric forklifts from propane a couple decades ago - in many applications, but not all, and for a variety of reasons. I understand the benefits and the…

you’re really bad at basic math, and really good at buying into bad math. *hint* - it’s the ‘per capita’ part of the equation. *hint 2* - most Chinese and Indian and other 3rd world ‘capitas’ live in huts and shit in a hole in the ‘yard’. It’s not the same thing, hence per capita CO2 emissions is a moronic metric

the lack of paying attention in 7th grade science class caused this....google is cool, but you still can’t be a dumbass and survive at real life.

totally not the same - a false equivalency and you know it.

volts without watts is called walking.

I hate that all these climate reports use Celsius.

The point is this - America has done it’s part already, and then some - however we’re still responsible and must take responsibility for solving the issue. The answer to climate change is elsewhere. How does the average American cause ‘elsewhere’ emissions? Buying cheap goods made in China. This is the basis of the…

there’s not enough ubers in that case because the cheap ass Millenials bitched so much about the surge that accommodated for market clearing pricing (Econ 101, folks) that the benevolent dictator mayors convinced Uber to kill it. Nobody wants do drive you from a concert or sporting event for standard pricing...it’s…

been there, done that - by the time (and money) you get this done, it’s a money hole that’s hard to sell and not much fun to ride.  $600, and we’ll talk....it’s a long winter ahead, and I can sell it in the spring for $1500 - make a quick $500 on the fixup flip.

guarantee this dude wishes he’d closed the garage door....

for realz

exactly - we can’t have nice looking cars because Millenials have their heads stuck in their phones instead of paying attention to traffic crossing the streets.  It’s sad.
