It’s better than replacing a whole fucking battery pack you imbecile. The whole point is that shouldn’t even be a thing, just design it to be serviceable. Or, at the very least make the cover a proper skid plate/debris shield. Since it’s not, shit like this is required.

And I would still be ok with that. Better than replacing an entire assembly that’s otherwise in working condition. 

People have been doing this to radiator housings for like...forever. Go sit down, you have clearly never wrenched on a vehicle. 

No core charge for the battery, and in Jersey you have a right to keep that part if it doesn’t have a core charge. He was going to do so before he came across Rich Rebuilds. 

Nope, last time I had a vehicle repaired due to road debris it was classified as a comprehensive claim. 

The point is you shouldn’t have to replace an entire $16k battery because a plastic nipple for a low pressure cooling system was cracked. This should be a $1 part that can easily be replaced on said battery pack. 

Yep, my dad was a captain in a small sheriff’s department in TX. When he was hired the goal was to ‘clean up’ department, since it was full of pricks that were fired/forced to resign elsewhere for being shitbags. After 2 years this resulted in no less than half of the department getting fired for one offense or another…

*If* you want to pay in cash, the best way to do it is take all the incentives that go with whatever shitty interest rate that is the catch and then pay it off with your first bill.

Unless there is a pre-payment penalty (which, I’ve never heard of a manufacturer aligned loan having one), you come out on top. 

You can ask that same question in regards to why there isn’t a fuel cap on each side of every gas vehicle. It might make life (very slightly) easier but it’s not worth the cost.

You are an idiot if you don’t think a direct sales model from the major car brands won’t do the same thing. 

This right here. I’ve built most of my net worth using other people’s money. Loans, if used correctly, are a wonderful tool. My 0% car loan? That’s 40k in cash I can use for wealth building. Cash now is better than cash later.

“Ubisoft’s Avatar Game Will Actually Flex Your PS5 And Xbox Series X”

Are we still falling for this bait and switch? This is Ubisoft, they will talk about and show these graphically fantastic environments up until release, and then we’ll get this:

How DARE you suggest that the Toybaru needs more power!!!!

I have recently (well, 3 years ago) bought a Ford on X-Plan pricing and I did not give up any incentives....

Even the site you get your pin from says it’s X-Plan Discount PLUS incentives. 

I would be ok with only being able to rent Dodge Journeys for the rest of my life so long as I didn’t have to get into a Ford Ecosport ever again.

True, just look at most of Toyota’s lineup. It’s like they are trying to see how far they can push their ugly ass cars. 

How much is Lucid paying The Herb for these advertorials?

Sounds about right.

Again, fuck Hertz and I hope they manage to go out of business.

Production is part of the infrastructure. That production is not sustainable. 

The US driver’s license is not a proof of skill. It’s proof of basic knowledge of the rules of the road and traffic laws.
