We are listing in about a month as well - hear the market out here at least is calming down just a little bit (meaning instead of 20 offers within 3 days, you get 5 offers within a week) out here in PDX. But what I’m not looking forward to is being on the other side of the situation over the coming months trying to…

I decided to list my house for 23% over what it’d been appraised at a few months before (I’d had it appraised thinking about selling/HELOC etc). It was also high for my neighborhood at the time. Sold for full asking price in 3 days and ended up appraising. A week after I was under contract my neighbor two houses over…

Are you downsizing or moving to a less popular place?

I love how nobody actually thinks about how large 5000lb of fireworks is, and immediately skews towards “all those fireworks in that truck”.

They wouldn’t fit. It’s the “oh, and we found some homemade explosives” that went off and destroyed the container, because... y’know.... they actually fit in it.

It’s just the response of a child on display. Some millennials grew up without ever having to experience ideas they’re uncomfortable with. So they revert to the responses of a child. Like this, “her barbie dolls are stupid” nonsense from Bradley.

I once accidentally ended up on a budget airline for one leg of a trip. It confirmed to me that I’d rather not go somewhere than take one of those.

I work in one of those service departments and tbe Defenders aren’t coming in much at all since the first run of 110s in the Summer/Fall of 2020. And almost all of those issues were software bugs.

This is Jalopnik now. All the writers with any talent saw what this place was becoming and moved on many years ago. Jalopnik used to be THE best place to read and talk about cars on the internet, but that’s got to have been close to a decade ago now.

So as long as the opinions of others align with yours then everything is great. Everyone has a reason for their opinions and no one has to justify said opinion to you or anyone else. That is why we have a democracy with many freedoms. Take your thought police to a different country and don’t let the door hit you in…

Please Torch tell me you didn’t fall for this political theater?

What the hell is wrong with you confusing us all with “facts”? You’re ruining the liberal narrative! I feel like Toyota is nothing more than a cabal of alt-right seditionists, so therefore it must be true. Facts are an inconvenience.

Same thing as paying a “fee” to customs/law enforcement in central america, the islands, or Africa, for a good chunk of my career. Our government is about as crooked as it gets; Toyota is just playing the game and keeping the grubby little paws greased to protect their interests.

I’m not going to get all worked up on this.

SNL is basically Lorne Michaels’ personal fiefdom; it’s not about being funny, it’s about flattering celebrities and satisfying corporate interests. Now that Fallon is hosting, it’s basically become an extension of that. 

Torch - does the Changli have the ability to warp our conception of time? I refuse - patently - to acknowledge that you received this vehicle one year ago.

I don’t disagree with that, but Jerome Guillen, the president of Heavy Duty Trucking, leaving and selling all of his shares makes me think something is wrong with the Semi, Panasonic selling their shares makes me think that something might be the 4680 cells. The Semi is dependent on the 4680s going into production,…

“No one graduated from school thinking science was static or permanent”

And, they just beat the s*** out of you.

Yeah a buddy of mine’s step dad was a UAW man.  No imports in his driveway either. 

Neutral: I’d rather watch slideshows than the new FF movie.
