Bentley is probably not the best company to use to demonstrate trade barrier issues since people buying Bentleys are definitely not buying them because of their low price point. A few more tax dollars on top of the price is not going to affect their business.

It actually makes a contested convention more likely since it gives everyone else a better opportunity to get above the 15% threshold. Basically, with the vote being split among fewer people, Biden has a better chance at getting more delegates and not allowing Bernie to get a majority of the delegates by the…

Dave’s a bit of a prick though so why not let them experience Dave?

Is raisins in potato salad a thing?

Studded tires are not universally road legal AND only help on ice/hard packed snow...they do nothing for you on a snow covered road or wet pavement (and might actually be worse). The only places that you might need studded tires in the US are above the 45th parallel or in the high elevations of the mountains in the wes…

There should be no such thing as a business degree for undergrads. An MBA should be a degree you get after getting an engineering degree or a communications degree or a agricultural sciences degree or math degree or anything else. But having business degree for undergrads is stupid

BTW: The Nissan Xterra was cancelled because it couldn’t meet the upcoming safety standards. Dealers begged for a replacement but Nissan said... Nah, we’re good. Here’s the Juke. We’re a joke.

From a previous article

It’s the major downside of the social safety net

Given this would probably be used on more highway driving weight isn’t as much a factor as the additional drag from the trailer, which should still be minimal.

I don’t think anyone is arguing for equal pay as in dollar for dollar the same amount, but more for equal pay as in “Hey we both brought in $1 million in sales yet he got paid twice as much, WTF?”

many charging stations are run from diesel

I’m not saying it’s bad or good, just that he’s outraged about his taxes going towards subsidizing cars...well what about his taxes subsidizing home ownership? It very much is the same thing, yes it’s a massively different scale, but at their most basic both policies are subsidizing personal purchases for a social…

Are you opposed to subsidies in principal or just subsidies for EVs?

3rd: Company tax breaks need to die already. Just out right ban them at a federal level so you don’t get these stupid bidding wars between towns/cities/states working against their own interests.

Assuming you are in North America, you are enjoying your IRA go up,

I think the Dakota isn’t materializing because the fear that it would cannibalize Gladiator sales. If they just took the Gladiator frame and put a Ram body on it I think it would be perfect, the problem is it needs to be cheaper than a 1500. The Gladiator MSRP starts at only $2k less than a 1500 crew cab 4x4...for a…

I always do some mental math after fixing something that was a PITA. Even with the cross threading you spent about 20 man hours on this (2 guys x 10 hours each) for $650 in savings. $650/20 hours = $32.50/hour

Learned this one last year. The alternator bolt (steel) would not budge on my ‘93 F150 no matter what I did. In my efforts to free said bolt I cracked the bracket (aluminum) it was bolted into. Ford no longer makes that bracket so I had a fun time tracking one down. Screw you Ford, at the very least the bolt should…

I still can’t imagine the SC declaring a constitutional amendment unconstitutional. I could see them saying it’s inconsistent, but it’s an issue that should be fixed by congress/legislatures. I really have a hard time seeing them outright declaring it unconstitutional because that opens a huge can of worms.
