I try to stay away from making assumptions about the people who drive certain vehicles unless they’re dumb enough to plaster their vehicles with Confederate flags or whatever.

I didn’t mention politics, you jackass. Now kindly go fuck yourself with a dry, life-size, fist-shaped dildo wrapped in sandpaper.
I see. That is of course, different and makes more sense.
What?
I was just talking to my wife about this as we saw our fourth Element within two blocks of each other this past weekend. I said “People really do love that car. They should bring it back as an EV.”
Too many to list. Honda S-2000, Fit, and Element. Air-cooled and water-cooled VW “Station Wagons”/Vans/Type 2s and Vanagons. The OG BMW i3. The OG Ford Ranger. Pontiac Fiero. Buick Riviera. Olds Toronado. COE Jeeps. Chevy Volt and Corvair . . .
Wagons, all of them. Camry wagon, Accord wagon, A4 and A6 Wagon, 3 series and 5 series wagon, C class wagon, Jetta wagon, all of them.
Toyota Tercel wagon. With the inclinomater.
Camry Wagon.
A friend of mine’s dad had one. And when said friend discovered that they WILL roll oversteer into the trees if you lift the throttle going too fast in a curve, it was replaced with an AWD Dodge Colt Vista wagon. A two-fer of wierdo AWD ‘80s wagons in one family. Impressive that he got such a painfully slow car going…
They were sweet wagons. I remember being in college and thinking when I graduate I want to buy one of them.
Flying Air France back in 1996 we were delayed leaving Kiev (because some drunk bastard wouldn’t get out of the wrong seat he’d decided to sit in. Finally after 20 minutes of the flight attendants pleading and cajoling, 4 guys from the passengers simply grabbed him, lifted his ass out and carried him to his seat and…
Actually, that is the problem, and why we use unhoused, because the properties available to house them are present and sufficient. They are just not deployed to that end. Vacant properties, airbnbs, third and fourth holiday-homes, if they were deployed as permanent residencies at affordable rates, would be more than…
I’m a liberal for sure (hear this one all the time on NPR) and the term I hear these days is “experiencing homelessness”. I think it’s a fucking waste of time to debate semantics when what’s needed is building a fuckton of housing. And don’t give me this BS like here in NJ where every town has to have a certain amount…
Unhoused, because it is condemnation of a society that has failed to provide the social conditions that allow people to have homes. Homeless puts the blame, and in a passive tone, on the individual. Homeless is the more palatable term in this case.
TheOGturn here, crazy to see my channel mentioned on a site i go to nearly day!!! For those wondering
A 1986.5 VW Scirocco with a 16-valve engine. Never driven one, but the press was fawning over them.
Thanks for the reminder, I am going to put some zip ties in my bibs
Worst comes to worst, I’ll ship one from Japan. I bought a ‘93 245 Classic 5-speed with 240K miles (!) and it was my daily for years. It saved my life when I fell asleep, driving home from grad school. RIP, Ylva.
The cabin is pressurized to ~8k. They were around 16k, a difference of 8. Yet it still ripped the seats apart near the opening and ripped a shirt off a kids back. You think that if the difference was 25k+ it would be the same? Hardly. And that doesn’t factor in the cold and lack of oxygen up higher.
