We’ll get a good reminder when we have the follow-up 9000 lb rocket ships being piloted by distracted suburbanites. 

100%.  I like my iPhone.  I like CarPlay.  I have no desire for either to do anything beyond control media, navigation, and phone calls.

Really dig these. The only omission that popped to mind on the party list is Whodini - “Freaks Come Out at Night”. Also I feel like Billie Eilish - “Bury a Friend” is spookier than “Bad Guy”, but also a bit less of a party song, so maybe on the actual scary playlist?

6'4" here too. I managed to snuggly fit in the driver seat of an NC back when I was in college (probably around ~13 years ago). I’ve tried recently sitting in both the driver and passenger seat of an ND, and no dice.

Edit: NVM, my brain was thinking E55.

Do people actually notice how many spaces are after a period? I can’t say that I’ve ever once looked at an email (or, silly me, Slack) and taken note of post-punctuation spacing.

I really enjoyed the first season.  I need to set aside some time to finish the series.  

The Haunting of Hill House was so much fun. I’d highly suggest after watching it, doing some youtube searches for things you may not have noticed. I remember seeing a handful of weird unexplained things when I watched the series, but there is so much more that I missed. While none of it really adds to the story, it’s…

Maybe it has something to do with my big and tall build, but I’ve honestly always found the Challenger to be a pretty comfortable cruiser. I’d never buy one for myself, but I’ve had them for rentals a couple of times and always felt it made a nice interstate car.

I say this as someone who appreciates classics and owns a 50+ year old car (that I adore).

That’s awesome. I have a 2 year old son, and while we’re still working on a lot of car names, he spots “Mini COOOpers” all the time when we’re driving around. 

Working in the tire industry, I’ve come across more than one person who believes that tires should be inflated to the max PSI stamped on the sidewall, and even more people who have no clue that the OEM’s recommended PSI is located on a sticker in the driver side door jamb.  Honestly, it’s pretty wild how little the…

Now that I’m starting to see Broncos (the real ones, not just the Sports) on the road occasionally, I’m not quite as taken by them as I thought I would be. I feel like it’s somewhat common for vehicles to look better in person than they do in photographs, but I feel like the Bronco is the opposite. Not that they look…

Slight tangent, but I hardly ever see Evos on the road anymore and it got me curious about how much buying a used one would be.  Turns out, still a lot.  They’re definitely on that STi depreciation curve. 

So there was recently (today?) an article about Reminders and now one about Notes.  As someone who generally just uses Notes, I’d love a primer on the differences between the apps and how/if they can work together. 

Sounds like you also legitimately forgot about Jurrasic Park 3. Well played.

Could be someone who just churns through vehicles. Maybe an E39 M5 was something they’d always wanted only to buy one and find that it didn’t quite scratch the itch they thought it would. I think you’re skepticism is valid, but there could be a non-suspicious reason they are selling it.

If you’ve never seen Dark City before, do yourself a favor and make sure you watch the director’s cut. The theatrical cut opens with a narrator telling you exactly what’s going on which spoils a lot of the plot. The director’s cut leaves that out and you get to discover what’s happening along with the protagonist.…

I don’t exactly know when/why the switch flipped for me, but some years back I kind of realized that I tended to attribute malice to most of the dumb things other people do in cars, when in actuality it is just inattentiveness. It’s unsafe and deserves ridicule either way, but that realization that other drivers…

Ford Flex and TourX both omitted.
