Yeah, we’re seeing prices starting to drop below $2 / gal here, as well. Funny thing is, nothing else has changed; there’s just as much traffic, everyone’s still going to work, schools are still open...where is this “America” grinding to a halt? LA? NYC?

Look at it this way today,  E85 is 85% hand sanitizer. 

Wish every station offered it.

Thumbs up for the ethanol-free pump in the pic. I wish more stations would have this. It’s a smart move to get landscapers and boat owners into the store.

Lol because you’re in California, therefore you get to pay more for everything.

The blends we use here in California are only produced in California. That’s why those fires at the LA refineries drove gas prices up so quickly. We don’t have an out of state refinery that can prop up the supply.

Taxes!

Here is how modern democracies work: quite often the government in power doesn’t govern the way you wish they would. Often the candidates that you back don’t get elected. The proper course of action is redouble your efforts to elect a government that agrees with your views. One way to do that is to try to convince

I was about to say...why not make “work from home if you want to, unless you absolutely have to come in” an option all the time?

Entitlement. The reason why we’ve been advocating against participation trophies for that generation. Now they want a nationwide participation trophy government in the form of socialism. Or what they think socialism is.

They are the same people that think socialism is a good thing, they are why we have the electoral college.

And really at under $5k for a P car, who cares if it blows it in a year from whatever (it won’t be IMS, as you noted). It would still be a great year with a cheap P car.

a $5k older Porsche is a lot like dating a stripper - a chunk of money, a lot of drama, pretty exciting while you are at it, and fun for a short time but not really a long term plan.

Literally EVERY single comment about IMS failures. The early model year Porsches had the DUAL-ROW bearing, which hardly fails. It’s the single-row bearings that tend to fail, and the problem as a whole is nowhere near as big as the internet will have you believe. Let the folks whine about “big dollar repairs” and

These model years don’t have the issue. They have the dual-row radial bearing which doesn’t fail (though there may be isolate cases). The models after ‘99 have the single-row, which may fail. It isn’t a hugely widespread problem, as the internet would have you believe. If it was so bad and folks were blowing engines

FWIW, I have read in a number of places that a) higher-mileage vehicles are less prone to failures (that said, 115k in 22 years may be considered “low mileage”?), and b) the ‘00-’05 motors were 5-10% more prone to failure than the models up to ‘99.

So much ignorance in such a short paragraph should be criminalized. Republicans have their shortcomings and all, but modern day liberals are like the cancer of the human population. I'll take Republicans over these new crackpot Democrats any day of the week. That's why Trump will be reelected this year.

As with any restoration, I’d want to take a very close look at the quality of the work.

Show me where Trump hurt you.... I swear, this website may be the BEST car enthusiast site out there, but goddamn there’s lots of fucking whiners on here.
