Why are you attacking my aunt? J/K

More likely, he wanted someone craven to his demands and without any moral compunction to do the right thing. Someone even more spineless than Pence, who at the very least, felt somewhat bound by the Constitution.

Vance is a weird little man who surely has a weird little PP. He tries so hard to lean into this “death of masculinity” bullshit when he should be using Kamala as an example for how to properly apply and wear eyeliner.

One of the first things I look for and turn off as soon as my butt hits the seat in a rental car. Mazda’s implementation is especially erratic. I can see some benefit if I’m slogging hundreds of miles on the interstate and think there’s a chance I might get tired, but otherwise can’t tolerate having the wheel

Probably OnStar. In terms of basic features, I can’t think of a single reason I’d ever use it, much less pay for a subscription. It seems like a relic for old people who can’t figure out Android Auto or CarPlay.

Nooope. Wrong generation Montero at the laughably wrong price. Sorry bub, whatever that finance guy at the Mitsubishi dealer did to get you to bend over for a subprime loan at a ridiculous interest rate is on you should be considered a sunk cost. Ridiculous.

I remember reading this account from one of the search leaders years ago. No trace of those folks for 13 years. Horrifying.

Holy shit. That Phantom on a rocket sled just disintegrated. Science is fucking rad.

Nothing to add, just happy to see the C303 Terrängbil mentioned. What a fun name.

I don’t have the time, patience, or desire to throw money at a Jag of this vintage in its original configuration, much less one that someone has monkeyed with to this extent. Easy pass.

I like the Sky Lounge (2nd floor of concourse F I think) that has outdoor seating overlooking a runway and radio tower. That one usually seems to be a little less crowded, maybe due to being slightly more hidden. My wife and I have a little game, where if we get stuck with an exceptionally long delay or layover, we

I fly through ATL somewhat often and I can’t fathom why in the hell someone wouldn’t use the plane train. That’s the definition of insanity. ATL is fine and also has some of the better Delta Sky Lounges. 

I don’t know, I never really had much affection for these birds. They always looked like a stretched out Tempo to me. Being as impartial as I can, The 5-speed and supercharger check the plus column but I’m struggling to find anything else to be enthused about. Too many warts to be coveted, but also sitting slightly

Dispense ice. Cubed or crushed.

No particular reason. I’m not against private sale, going through a dealer is simply how my last few purchases have turned out for a variety of reasons. Either 1) Purchasing new. 2) Having to replace a vehicle quickly and not having time to peruse the private market, especially if travel/distance is a factor. 3) Not

I find a lot of Gen Z are interested in cars, but mostly as a collection of trivia and ephemera, or something aspirational. My work employs a few graduate assistants each year and very few drive or own a car. However, when I had my onsite office before transitioning to fully remote work, I always had some scale models

I haven’t purchased a car from a private seller in over 20 years but I tend to browse a lot. Wealth signaling vanity shots where someone carefully arranges every “nice” thing they have into frame always gets under my skin and gives me the ick. Like, no way do I want to deal with that person and their ego. 

Our neighbor had a Derby party once and one of his buddies rolled up in one of these. By that evening it had puked almost all of its oil into his driveway. Based on that singular experience, I’m going to say no.

I’ve never paid money to see one, but I know I’ve caught portions on TV and I couldn’t even tell you which specific numbers in the series. My takeaway is:

Are those even about cars? I thought they were about...
