Trump calling out the airlines/manufacturers being unregulated is incredible - his administration was instrumental in their continued deregulation.

5G 4Runner is the obvious no-doubter. Big enough for growing kids, small enough (<16 ft long) to park anywhere, capable in nearly all SUV driving conditions, limitless customization support, cheap parts available (as if you will need them), ultra robust 4.0L/5spd powertrain, will 100% make it 250K with little more…

What a lukewarm take. Tons of games punish with death/save reload based on path selection. And this game gives you several exit options - warp, build, reload. It’s not a soft lock, it’s an open world game.

Because maybe it reminds one person to get off their phone or slow down around other stopped traffic.

Whatever, man. I saw a baby duck get hit when I was 18 - I’m 38 now and I STILL think about seeing that. It’s easy to armchair QB the zero some odds game here, but he didn’t do anything wrong and a lot of other people would stop to help.

I burned out hard on BOTW, but am taking this way slower and kind of staying in a bubble as far as spoilers and guides. It’s been really fun. I’m chasing stuff down as it crosses my nose and exploring. It’s been very relaxing so far. I don’t have a large backlog, but I remember having anxiety around completing years…

Now show us 2022-2023, because the chart above the chats showed stagnant overall market share starting 2022.

“But it’s not all the fault of the buyer. Some models and brands have horrible resale value, which a buyer has no control over.”

Lol - good luck doing this with teenagers, or any child really. I am big on firm walls and mirrors. There are straight up boundaries kids don’t cross - disengage/not debatable, and it’s important to reflect back what they’re saying to you so it’s clear you hear them and they can amend their angle if they aren’t…

Trotting out the classics.

Right - I agree. But that’s not the point OP made. I have a 2013 4Runner and you could never sell me on upgrading to this at this cost. If you came in saying a Wrangler at a much lower price point for 90+% of the capability, everyone would agree.

So they headlight bulbs are a warm LED? That’s all someone had to say. They looked like halogen (shrug).

So they are halogens (opt out). Incredible.

The part where you compared a Bronco to a Model Y and a bicycle?

Are those halogens? On an $85k truck?

Are you really “weird nerd”ing a bullet for TitleMax right now?

These salaries suck! I am just a “standard” engineer in the Midwest and these are all like 100K less than my equivalent salary for the Bay area.

You don’t have to be faster than the bear, just faster than the other guy.

My dad would say, “that was an IQ test”.

This has been my favorite fallout of all of this - for years, I’ve argued with Elon stans that he’s not *doing* anything. He’s hired some brilliant people to run these plays. Engineers are the ones who have lofted his companies into the stratosphere (literally and figuratively). Welcome schadenfreude.
