I always want another alfa. But as I’ve repeatedly told local dealers, I won’t pay extra for the AWD I don’t want. They won’t order or stock a RWD Giulia so they don’t get my sale. Why would I pay more for things I don’t want, and that add complexity and therefore long term headaches and costs? 

Having absolutely no context other than this article, I assumed the “Rebel” was meant more in the General Lee and Slavery sense than anything else. 

At least one of them is pristine and running at the National Automobile museum in Reno, no idea if they have the second though 

Except not. People have the right to “keep and bear arms” which could be totally satisfied by allowing people to join a “well regulated militia” where they train in “bear(ing) arms” and letting them take their service weapon home to “keep.” I’m not for banning guns as prohibitions generally don’t work as intended. But…

There is a ct6 plug in hybrid, by the way. 

Shocked I had to scroll this far to find someone mentioning Sergio, that was the first place my mind went when I read the headline. 

What’s weird about flying places to buy cars? Ever since the internet allowed you to search nationwide for a car, why would you limit your search? I’ve saved thousands buying cars from hundreds of miles a way, even after counting the cost of travel or shipping the car back to me. Family and I have been doing this…

Also “Neither title contender deserved to lose” when Hamilton was soundly beaten on track and only in it at the end due to crashing out his rival violently and without punishment rather than lose yet again as the season was getting out of reach means the author is clearly just a whiny Hamilton fan.

“Neither driver deserved to lose” Really? Tell me you’re a Hamilton Homer without telling me you’re a Hamilton Homer. Lewis got beat this year. Badly. And that’s a good thing, it had become hard to watch F1 yet again due to such dominance, no one likes to watch a “contest” with the same winner every time. After the…

It’s a farce because Verstappen and Red Bull won both championships weeks ago, but might end up officially losing. Hamilton should have been excluded from Silverstone and received a race ban for the move, meaning 50 of his points aren’t legitimate. It’s been a messy season, both drivers pushing the limits a lot, but…

But it doesn’t have to be a million dollars. A few years ago, I refinanced my house to lower my rate and take some money out, used that to buy equipment for a business I was starting and was able to end up with ~$0 in income for the year despite working a normal w2 job all year.

Exactly. Been on the ev train for 3 years, never driven it more than 100 miles in a day. When I need to go farther, I trade with friends or family or rent. There’s no reason you can’t have a car that is great for 99% of your days and use something else when you need to. I don’t and don’t want to own everything I’ll…

Alternate solution, Make them one giant state. Ah, never mind, I can’t pass up the chance to end up with states like “North Minnekota,” “Idana,” or “Kanska”

Education prices are cheaper. It’s not a discount until it’s below apple’s education pricing since they require absolutely no verification or lying to get the education price.

My property tax on my house goes up every three years. Not because of rate hikes, but because of assessed value hikes. I don’t take money out of my house, but I’m taxed on its value anyway. This tax makes absolute sense. And while I know it doesn’t even come close to pretending to think about ever affecting anyone who…

Pay drivers don’t actually pay for their seat, generally they bring investments or sponsorship to the team worth many times their salary. And there are still many pay drivers. Mazepin for one. But even Alonso when he was reigning and recent champion brought more sponsorship money to his team than his salary cost,…

It’s well documented. He’s posted videos of himself groping women for one. If that’s what he does when the cameras are watching, and puts out for the world to see, he must be a real gentleman in private. 

magic mountain is open year round now. If it’s 65 and sunny in January with 10 million plus potential visitors living within a 2 hour drive, why would you close for the winter? They did close most weekdays during the school year in the past, but even then it’s about 450 potential free meals during the year. Plus by…

So a game made by a company that’s never really needed to seek a profit or pay taxes has so many taxes and so few ways to make money that people have to resort to bartering? Color me shocked. 

Speaking of unions, Boeing wants to build all their 787s at the non-union South Carolina plant, but the non-union workers are so much worse than the union ones that many airlines have refused delivery of planes built there. It’s almost like unions not only help workers get the wages and benefits they deserve, but also…
