Spot on. I didn’t like everything about the Last Jedi (eg the Finn/Rose arc) but I absolutely loved the way it ended with a clean slate. It is the first Star Wars movie where I can honestly say I have no idea what direction the sequel is going to go and for that alone, Rian Johnson deserves all the credit for…

Judging by his other actions this month, this is least crazy thing he’s done. He’s gone from being just early onset dementia to flat out mentally diseased.

I really think it’s more a combination of the cold conditions and the winter tires as Mr Metcalfe himself pointed out. Other reviews in more ideal conditions aren’t nearly as concerned about the traction situation. That said, any RWD car with over 700 hp is going to have to be treated with respect. Still a great…

I think part of its alleged effectiveness is that it forces you to mix it with a lot of water to wash it down with, unless you’re that one special person that decides to use champagne and explodes the bottle all over your house (I’m never going to live that down). I used it for a while and yes, I did feel better the…

They allow you to travel from one point to another. They um, crash real good when superheroes throw meteors at them. Basically not much.

Unfortunately that’s exactly what I’m saying. There’s no way to sugarcoat this. The 2020 election will be won or lost in states like PA, WI, MI and FL. As the midterms showed us, running candidates closer to the demographic makeup of these places works to the extent it doesn’t energize a certain section of the vote to…

This - we need to avoid repeating the 2016 primary where Bernie kept fighting Clinton even after he lost a realistic path to victory. Yeah sure he backed her at the end but I don’t think anybody can argue it didn’t help Clinton to have to contest the Democratic nomination all the way into the summer. The Democrats…

The only thing that matters is the finding the best candidate possible to defeat Trump. Identity and any other diversity checkboxes need to be left at the door. Biden would have been perfect if he was 10 years younger, Bernie is even older so right now it looks like its Beto. He’s far from perfect but he did take the…

Is the hi-lux basically the same truck as the Tacoma these days or has the hyperinflation in US truck sizes moved it a size down?

Pagani huayra. It shouldn’t really be a debate.

The Democrats include way more than the radical left that gets the biggest megaphone on sites like splinter. Open borders and unrestricted migration are supported by a tiny, insane minority of not just Americans but Democrats as well. It might not play well in a media cycle to push such views but I expect most major…

If it was a Cadillac they’d formally announce it, launch it and then cancel it before launch. They’d then replace it by yet another CUV. 

Does it have a working V16 engine?

e92 m3 with the 6MT. Real exotic car engine that revs to 8500 and chugs 10W-60. Fast even for today. Still looks pretty good. At the bottom of its depreciation curve.

He probably tried turning his car off and on again when it caught on fire.

Me too. They brought it upon themselves by stealing. Any injuries they sustain is on them. 

That would be a mistake. Buying a crossover would put you right back in the target zone for these newer taller pickups with their ever increasing height. A regular sized car would actually put you under the beam. 

I disagree with a lot of things Sanders says but for once, I’m on his side here. You’re implying that we let everybody that wants to live in the United States move here regardless of ability to integrate and contribute. If poverty and violence was the only thing needed to claim and get asylum billions of people would…

I see this more as a rightsizing of a bloated model and manufacturing portfolio ahead of time for a long overdue and perfectly normal down cycle for the economy. The whole “electric and autonomous” focus is a bone to throw the sell side idiots on wall st for multiple upgrades.

There’s still the ATS/CTS replacement incoming. I’d say the V version of that car will be the true CTS-V replacement and a good bet to see a fettled version of this engine. Of course this is GM so they could end up being stupid and sticking a turbo V6 in it instead and end up with a less than competitive take on the…
