Just... pay people more?  Or we can keep begging for cheaper prices on goods while continuing to ignore the fact that adjusted wages have barely moved in 3+ decades.

“See, kids? Our minivan is pretty cool! Don’t roll your eyes at me!”

Before our tag expired, my father-in-law “pre-ordered” my wife a new-release collegiate plate. When they became available she went to get her new plate... but my name is first on the registration, so I drove down there. Then they said they couldn’t apply my father-in-law’s purchased credit to the plate because it was

Every. Single. One.

I don’t think it’s shocking. It’s a low compression V10. The drivetrain is pretty much bullet proof. The only thing I am surprised is that the interior hasn’t turned to dust.

CT = Yes, judged

Rolling Coal. This is just ignorant. Nobody wants to breathe in a cloud of diesel smoke.

“Carolina Squat” is stupid, the whole “stanced” look is dumb (and not exactly safe either, right?), but I reserve my highest level of disdain for any vehicle with an excessively-loud exhaust and their drivers who insist on forcing everyone to hear their crappy vehicle and pay attention to them.

Nothing, because I feel no shame in not paying for features I don’t need.

But all the guys at the office with trucks won’t like me as much!

The bed to cab ratio on these trucks is getting a little insane. You might as well just buy an SUV and rent a uhaul trailer for the 1 time a year most of these guys will need to haul something. So dumb!

I was violently opposed when my wife suggested we go minivan to make life easy with our two kids. The deal went through (because she gets to pick her vehicle)... And I quickly saw the light. I am now a minivan evangelist for people with kids. Come forth, behold and worship at the altar of the minivan and the  slidey

Someone just needs to figure out how to get minivan doors on an SUV so we can get all this nonsense over with. Fine, give me a lifted minivan. But after having a Pacifica rental car for a week last summer I will never change my tune that the best feature of a minivan is that giant sliding door. Putting my kid in her

Having taken my son to a number of Monster Truck shows now, there is an ENORMOUS range in forum, skill, and overall quality. The highest quality shows are super well done and are choreographed to near perfection. The lowest quality are enjoyable in a very different way.

Yeah this is total bullshit. Most likely a *round* mylar balloon, or something similar.

Now playing

I’m practical enough to know that there’s no real single “forever car,” but there’s a certain benefit to going with a well known entity.

Squatted trucks. I don’t need to say anymore.....

Do we really have much evidence that this would be safer in the hands of the federal government than a private company? 

Right wing asshole politician:

Low price point is huge factor.  I can go to my local Mexican place for breakfast and get a delicious and filling meal (homemade tortillas, homemade sauce, homemade everything!) for less than $6-7.  Not going to get this quality of food for that price point at many places these days.
