You just can’t win.

Oops. Forgot to read the whole thing. I thought they were putting up a bounty for hackers.

Which were all pre-WWI papers. With peoples included who never stepped into the war.

Technically, they were not part of the English/French(and later, American) official Alliance. There was very little communication. The Russians were pretty much on their own against the Germans on the (their) Western Front.

Did you also give the guy a hard time that said “automatic ATM”?

I don’t even do that. The car itself now tells me when to change the oil.

Don’t see how that’s changed. All you have to do is open the door and it displays. And telling her she can’t have a key to the car is suspicious enough.

My speedo doesn’t have the two sets of numbers. I like to switch my computer to kilometers, because I like to watch it hit 110 going to work.

And those of us on vehicle-specific forums have always discussed our mileage and maintenance.

On the surface, that reads like a conspiracy theory. But it is one that most likely will come true. Insurance companies have a lot more legal pull than people realize.

I agree. There’s no way anyone could figure out something specific from an odometer.

I saw lots of old Chevy Impalas. It’s like, the national car (it was the ‘90s when I was there).

“so if I can go a year+ without seizures and marry a gullible rich lady”

Tell me. I work at a manufacturing plant. One of the guys started showing up in a black Maserati a few weeks ago. It looks kind of strange parked amongst old pickups, Hondas, and Chevys.

Nope. They, like the Tacoma, aren’t “small, economical” trucks anymore. The Colorado got 2 MPG better than a Silverado and started at $21k with the L4. It’s big and ugly. What incentive was there to buy one?

True. I miss my ‘79 Toyota SR5 Long Bed. That’s what most of us need.

Or they don’t care.

This is one of those vehicles I wish they still made. I missed the boat to get a new, or relatively lightly used one.

Yep. My original thought was that if you lost a war to America, your penalty was to drive on the left. But Germany.

The VW Europe thing... From what I’ve read (here), a great deal of this is the difference in emissions restriction laws. And add to that that as Americans, we’re greedy bastards who will mouth off and ruin them until we’re paid off.
