I think they mean that "premium leakge" costs consumers $10 billion

But every day is also another day that the potential supply dwindled as well. Cars break down and get scrapped all the time. 

Also, bear in mind that a car going 5 mph under the speed limit is more likely to cause a crash than a car going 5 mph over. So yes, there IS a valid safety argument against allowing keis on the freeway that doesn’t apply to motorcycles

Only about 7,500 kei cars were imported into the entire US last year, and the 25 year rule means that there is an extremely finite supply of them that can be imported.

Why, though? Kei cars are extremely niche. How many people in the US import one to be their *only* car? 

The automotive equivalent of a headline reading “Mob witness in talks to voluntarily try on these cement shoes.”

The good news for Florida is that it soon won’t be known for gators....

New IP’s are especially expensive.

So despite the game’s name, they elected NOT to go with Beastie Boys for the soundtrack? Hard pass.

Also: changes to laws never go into effect the next day.  

Ah, see, it obviously engaged the Yakety_Sax.exe subroutine

Missed opportunity for them not squeaking it down to $54,990 so it would qualify for the $7500 for purchasers and not just leasers.

Everything’s faster in km/h!

Elon to the Model Q:

a new rise in what is apparently still called “buccaneering.”

Depends on if you mean Thomas Midgley Jr. or Carl Lowig. Lowig invented the chemical, but Midgley Jr. made it into a fuel additive.

We know for a fact now that Midgley Jr. claimed publicly that there was no alternative, but privately knew that ethanol was at least one alternative.  

Yeah. I think the number is 500,000 children are still exposed to leaded fuel fumes daily because of Avgas

Driven a few GV80's before. The seats are fine, but I find that it steers like the Evergiven and rolls like a 15' sailboat in 3' swells.

Maybe it was a rental and the driver was just returning the car to Avis?
