I’d put a lot of the money towards disease research and healthcare - not infectious diseases - but instead things like genetic and rare diseases including cancer and arthritis. We’re constantly bettering our understanding of these processes and shared research from a large amount of money across a broad range of…

Texas is insane. The people there drive like literal insane people. They don’t understand right of way, they don’t understand looking before you do something. The police also barely enforce traffic laws. This is backed up by someone working insurance. It’s just a never-ending stream of people aggressively merging into…

The Elantra and the SS have basically the same interior quality level, maybe worse on the Chevy. Have you been in one? They’re squeaky like 90's dodge interiors.

I get that you’ve owned one, but I think you were misinformed about a few things. Your hyperbole about the electric steering is out-there. It’s not worse than most similar era hydraulic steering systems. It’s a little bit numb, but the lack of adjustability is more of a curse than the slightly numb steering. The C5…

These are really starting to look dated now, aren’t they? The CLK especially looks like an empty nester mom at a beach town circa 2010 kind of car. It’s funny how you buy a high end performance car and depending on how contemporary automotive styling changes it either ages beautifully and gracefully or alternatively, i…

The only reason to buy a Silverado is if it’s cheaper than every other truck you’re cross-shopping and you’re very concerned about price.

these are gross :(

It won’t matter if we reopen - demand is gone and consumer confidence is shaken. A lot of the SV companies have their financial analysts projecting revenue in the coming months and have axed huge numbers of their workforce in preparation. Many of these are leading indicators for other industries - retail, transport,…

So they built a lower quality G70 for people whose primary goal when driving is to blind oncoming traffic at night?

I think you might be looking at it from the perspective of supply costs. Running plants isn’t just expensive when oil’s expensive, it’s expensive because you aren’t supposed to blow up/poison your employees, physical plant space is annoying, constant regulatory checks so you don’t leak gas everywhere, etc. Wind’s…

Lexus LS.

If it doesn’t have a massage or “active posture” function, it should be thrown out of this discussion.

“isn’t good journalism” apparently now equivalent to “I don’t like this” and also “legal” == “not selfish” ?

Either pretty solid trolling or some hilarious high school Objectivism club ignorant hubris.

We had this system and that game. The vertical scrolling speedway game was actually pretty fun. It was a great way to pass the time in the summer if you needed to cool off after playing whiffle ball in the heat of the afternoon... as long as no one was using the TV to watch daytime soaps like Young and the Restless.…

I would be surprised if the value of sporty cars didn’t crater after this. They probably have something on the back-end to account for that. Which means I’m probably holding on to my s2000 for a few more years at least.

I donated mine early on in the pandemic before the hospitals started running low. The hospital system here wasn’t set up to take donations yet, so they sent me to some distribution center loading docks and the people there acted like I was a Martian. I felt like I was getting a late start on it, but I was blown away…

no the usa would not be in their current situation with different leadership, your previous administration had a pandemic response plan and wouldn’t have gutted its own CDC. almost everything you said flies completely in the face of reality. are you reading breitbart all day or something daft like that? stick to your…

many newer sedans do this, look at the new accord - similar shape probably due to aerodynamics

The poster said “Chevy” not “Corvette” and Chevy makes an absolute pile of trash cars like the spark, sonic, malibu, trax, traverse, blazer, impala, and the recently discontinued cruze. You have to be getting an enormous discount to even consider one of those.

I’ve unfortunately had direct experience with a bunch of the…

Yeah it’s tricky to compare with residuals because they’re manufacturer controlled in some instances like BMW. Their 5 year depreciation is bottom of the barrel with Volvo. As of 2019 they were below M-B and Audi at basically at the bottom of the luxury pack. They’re reeling against Tesla with a ray of hope being that …

Modern ones? I don’t think so. They’re also hurting - residuals on BMW’s are awful. If Cadillac is trying to make money the German luxury brands aren’t the ones to target, especially not with how much they get hurt by the perception of poor quality once out of warranty.
