You are absolutely correct. Why is everyone so snotty anytime there’s an “I fucked up; what’s the least painful way to fix this” question?

Considering the average age of a new car buyer is almost 52 years old, its the boomers.

In terms of track performance the Taycan is vastly superior to the Model S P100D. The current production Model S P100D can’t make it around a short race track without overheating the drivetrain and going into limp mode much less the ring.

1. Guy way over his lease mileage allowance: buy the car at the end of the lease.

Last letter writer’s daughter needs to be introduced to the joys of a beater car. Cheap as you can get that still runs, drive it until it breaks, then dump it in the Michigan once she is skipping the country and file a theft report to get the insurance money and sell it to the next person needing a beater. If she gets…

He’s not asking how the lease works. He’s asking if, given how the lease works, and given that he fucked up, what options are open to him going forward. That’s not an unreasonable thing to ask someone who has helped other people deal with similar issues.

So here’s a similar scenario I’m currently dealing with. I leased a car to someone 4 years ago who wanted some small and cheap. She decided on a leasing option because using her trade in as money down the payment was stupidly low. Fast forward to a few months ago and she’s outgrown the lease but still has 1 year left…

“Uh... deal with it?” 

I have no clue what your point was supposed to be here.

I predict they’ll remove the turbo, remove the DI and make a big deal about the extra 5HP and greater low end torque.

My guess is that they will leave it 2.4 NA, as least in the standard trim. Subaru spends a lot of effort pushing its brand in motorsports and to have a 2.4 Turbo as standard would disqualify the car from competing in production class stage rally. As of the 2019 ARA rule book, the limits are 2.5L NA and 1.6L turbo for…

the waiver clause in the 1970 clean air act states

Uber’s own argument for why they are not an employer is that they do not hire the drivers. They are only the platform for connecting the driver to the passenger, i.e., the passenger is the doing the hiring. So, setting the price undercuts their argument that they are not an employer. Compare it to a company like Home…

reply to myself.. I just read that IIHS doesn’t like to use white cars because their facility is white and the cars don’t show up well in the video or pictures. So, Tesla has them by the balls on the color up-charge.

The Uber/Lyft model is to take over the market by selling rides at a loss until their competition goes out of business. Once they are the only game in town, they’ll raise their prices to make themselves profitable. 

It is 14 states counting CA, but they are states where 40% of new cars are sold.

That’s load-bearing paint.

$500/month total might actually be a little low for one person if their insurance is through their employer, but it is probably close for an example like this.

There a bunch of possible ways, and plenty of proposals out there. As I said, I would prefer a cap and trade, but if I were doing a carbon tax, I’d do something like this:

Not quite - what they’re saying is UAW employees pay 3 to 4 percent of their total healthcare premiums with the automakers picking up the remaining 96-97%. So if healthcare premiums are $500 per month for a typical worker, a UAW member pays about $20 per month for healthcare coverage while the average US worker pays $1…
