Or sells it off to a competitor

No, the fact is that a bullshit, classist, racist* peice of psuedoscience is the foundational concept of the movie. The 500-years-from-now world that Mike Judge imagined is based of it. 

Point in fact: it is NOT

It's actually closer to 10 years for that breakeven point

No, that’s still bad. I can drive to my office on surface streets and completely avoid highways, even if it adds to my commute time by 5-10 minutes. This, then, would be completely unfair to those who can not avoid highways in their daily driving. There's lots of places where avoiding highways, just... isn't possible. 

I hereby announce my candidacy for Congress, on the platform that my signature legislation will be the “Ban Stupid Puns In Bill Names Act” (BSPIBNA), which will prevent Congresspeople from naming their proposed laws in ways where the acronym or initialism forms a word. 

Idiocracy literally begins with a fake documentary about how “intelligent” middle/upper-middle class people are having fewer children while “dumb” poor people, portrayed as being overweight, having Southern accents, and living in run-down trailers, were having more.

And Tesla's price drops was a major cause of that

Every time I've gotten an EV from Avis, I've asked and been told that I didn't need to recharge it

Hertz really did get shafted by Tesla lowering the prices.

The sad thing is, I think the majority of rental car customers would get by just fine with an EV. In fact, since most rental car companies don’t make you recharge before returning the car, dropping it off is easier than ICE cars because you don’t have to worry…

Yes, it is. The entire point of Eugenics is some people saying that certain other people shouldn’t procreate.

You do realize that’s nothing new, right?  During WWI, Americans started calling sauerkraut “freedom cabbage”

Except that you can’t get a judge in Texas to overrule a state law in Massachusetts.

Someone should offer a service where, if you want out of your Tesla and into a non-Swastikar, they will total your vehicle for a nominal fee

A few years ago, I was given a convertible as a rental in Seattle in February.

I’ve had lots of rentals (like, a solid dozen per year) with switchblade keys. None of them ever pop open in my pocket

Maybe Chevy should considering changing that trim level name, all things considered...

It could have been medical travel insurance. When I traveled overseas for work during the dark days of covid, I had a policy that included a private medical flight back to the US if necessary.

50 is a bucket and spray nozzle, 100 is an open hose. 

Dirt and pollen.  If it’s not a hard rain then it’ll just stick instead of get washed off
