You’re right, decorum is more important than action. It was very rude of me to suggest that Washington or Nashville should do anything to help their constituents. It’s natural that they should leave people to their own devices while they process their emotional trauma and I’m being very unkind suggesting that they…

Ah yes, the sure sign of a successful nation: laypeople rebuilding destroyed infrastructure with trash because the government has zero interest in doing so!

GMC version only available in black with a spoiler and red sport stripe, right?

Make it a GMC Savana and get Mr. T on the phone ASAP.

OKay, let’s get stupid.

I don’t think that there’s anything inherently wrong with the concept of offering some inexpensive cars and extending credit to people who might not otherwise be able to purchase a car. In fact, I think it’s a great idea.

Used Toyota Sienna. I would do the drive away from the Rust belt to get something like this.

It keeps the dispute out of the…

Arbitration clauses like this should be illegal, full stop.

CyberTruck. Yes, I’m projecting.

Dodge Caliber:

Dodge Dart. I sold some of these new about a decade ago. They were a POS from the start. We had issues with them while they were on the lot and it didn’t get better after someone drove one home. The seats were uncomfortable and way to narrow for an actual butt. The DCT and 1.4 Turbo were an awful pairing. The engine…

It would be nice if the article pointed out that, while United did have 9 aircraft with the faulty component (which were purchased from another airline), they have all been fixed and there is not a single US operator now flying 737's with this issue.

Future Me says the Cybertruck.
