What’s wrong with discussing bad behavior directly with people? If they are friends, it should be easier, not harder.

GM is the same company who put out that fucking idiotic document that “proved” a Hummer was more environmentally sound than a Prius by, among other things, claiming the Hummer had an insanely long usable life and that the Prius wouldn’t last 100,000 miles. It was filled with bullshit and yet thousands of people smugly

Yesterday I had never heard of this dealer.  Today I know where they are and their name.  Wouldn’t shock me if they bought it for the news value and to have a nice showroom piece, even if they never sell it.

I see what you did there.  And on your shoe.

Internet car subcultures are fascinating to me... And I feel like so many cars have their own unique Achilles Heel. IMS bearing in some Porsche engines. Rear subframe failure in some modes of the BMW Roadster. Timing chain tensioner in the S2000. And they all have their fixes and costs to fix vs cost to repair if

1. The lead in picture should be Earl peeking through his mail slot. It fits the story better and Earl was voiced by Pitchford.

Not one ad for that. Not using an adblocker at the moment.

The 1986 Corvette Indy concept car was the car that got me into cars. I was way too young to drive, but it was the first car that had me learning about true mechanical components of a car. I got a Hotwheels sized version as a random stocking stuffer or something and ended up hunting any info I could on the thing. It

I have a few cards and they all allow me to refute charges. The bar for proving they aren’t mine is super low. Amex will never question it but even Chase has always instantly reversed a charge. The only card I have that doesn’t behave this way is a debit card. I stopped using it after a debate with a car dealership

I’ve worked with people who would send food back any time they wanted to “impress” the people they were with. Usually a date, but also could be a business dinner or whatever. I bluntly asked one guy if he always sends food back and he gave some rambling explanation that amounted to asserting dominance. Not sure over

If I’m in a hurry, I ask for the bill when the food is dropped off. Have never felt like this was a problem, I usually ask in a way that conveys that there’s no rush at all, since we’ll be eating the food we just got.

I’m happy about most of this and wish my state enforced something similar...

She should start a GoFundMe to help cover the $300 fines. She will probably raise thousands.

10 years of Prius driving and the brake pads looked like they could go another 10 years. I suspect that most hybrid brake pads outlive the car.

Part of the issue with some of this is the actual language.

The only free products I get are the weird things which are included with other orders. Bought some chargers and each came with a tiny USB light.

The Goshen thing is disturbing to me. I really do wonder if this was along the lines of the “hit” article previously published.

Sure he did. We see what’s in the background.
