Very limited reuse with fairly new cars. There’s no way the remaining gasoline powered cars will be in need of that many parts before it becomes uneconomical to store the diesel buy backs. Most everything will be recycled for raw materials and the usual small percentage landfilled.

From government and those who use it to enrich themselves.
There is no majority rule, but tyranny of the majority is its own problem.

You can elect a boob or boobs.

Gridlock is the only thing that is saving us.

Even if the representatives actually represented anyone but themsleves why would it matter? Tyranny of a majority or tyranny of plurality, what difference does it make?

Indeed, it will never happen. The single party protects its rackets first and foremost. The government was designed to create, protect, and grow these rackets and is functioning as it was designed. Only collapse will change things because those in power are not going to give up their power or their income streams.

Those aren’t the cups you’re supposed to be looking at here.

For two grand I’d expect more than that unless those used engines go for way more than I expect them to.

Given the way it is written and that it cites the company that provided the engine, it’s most likely 100K on the swap. He would have no way of knowing how many miles were on the 3L before the company built it to be dropped into a contour. Maybe they did tell him, hard to say.

simulate the 1960s flat black hoods because it’s a cheap way of dealing with the front of the hood has become peppered with paint chips over the years?

Are you context impaired? Did you read what I was replying to? The person to whom I was replying wrote: “Drink more coffee at your next Libertarian group meetings, man.” That sort of thing is a two way street. If you and your friend are going to play that way, expect to be called statists. It’s just amazes me how…

Why is it that people like yourself get to decide what I am claiming and then always do it in a way you can knock down easy and demand I back up what you’ve assigned me? Go have the debate with yourself if that’s what you want to do.

The number of spaces the city permits to be constructed is restricted. The whole of…

Parking minimums are for the occupants and users of the new buildings. That’s to keep the additional automobiles out of the street parking. A parking minimum is pointless otherwise. The spaces that count towards the minimum are not likely made available to the public at large because it would defeat the point.

Markets get distorted from government intervention. Have you ever bothered to see why those wall street types are so rich? You and I would be super rich too if our downside risks were covered by someone else and we could borrow for free.

How do you what the market price is when it is usually restricted, regulated and heavily taxed? Why would an unheated and unfinished space cost more than one that is? Chicago sold off (leased for decades actually) the street parking to a corporation. Part of that agreement requires the city to restrict off street…

I am well aware of parking minimums. But this discussion was garages open to the public at a fee, not parking for the sole use of occupants. I am also aware of groups who use politics to minimize any and all parking created.

I seem to think about property taxes? Did I write a single thing about property taxes here in this thread? No. It’s amazing how you statists just make up shit and attribute it to those who make a statement or argument you don’t like, knock it down, then make a disparaging remark all while thinking you’re so fucking…

That’s what I stated, you pay and you get access. Those willing to pay or who have relationships can get spots. And again, there would be more garages where people wanted them if government didn’t determine what land could be used for.

You can build ordinary more ordinary cars to be nice on the inside, even from the…

If the defense of Tesla motors is that features are still in ‘beta’ then that just reinforces my opinion that Musk and company don’t know how to develop product. Not that I haven’t worked at a company that tended to use the customer base to find problems, but it’s still not the way to do it.

Full is a question of price. All the regular rate spots for the public at large may be taken but that doesn’t mean the garage is actually ‘full’.

PS: If it wasn’t for government restrictions garages would get built where ever there was market demand for them great enough to make it profitable.
