he said, talking about an EV...

..................................................touché? 

a “half-assed,” per jnik, city car. $23,250 buys a 2016 f150 xlt 4x4 with <100k miles (not the same market, but it’s what I’ve been looking at). A lot of vehicle can be had for that kind of money, even with EV welfare

A good point. Are you not still financing that 7500 until tax return season, though?

that implies that people only like things because others do, and that a converging taste, independent of others’ perceptions, isn’t valid.

...maybe I’m naive, but I anticipate that anyone looking at an EV isn’t cross-shopping that EV with vehicles who don’t also have tax credits, i.e., other EVs. The only cross shopping from not within EVs, that I considered to be relevant, was with other minis.

well, it makes the headline factually incorrect and misleading, and, imo, distracts from the real problem by blurring the lines and discredits the real problem

$12 at taco bell for one person is strange to me. If I go to taco bell, my meal is pretty consistently going to be $5 plus tax. Sure, if a buffet is as cheap as a normal entree at a similar quality at a different restaurant, then sure you’re getting variety without wasting money.

that’s different - it’s not forcing the restaurant to use the app - it’s just fraudulently using the restaurant’s name to sell different food. Maybe it forces the restaurants to file complaints.

the same can be said for sticker price for most cars. it’s still a comparison tool.

fair point. though, less germy if you aren’t sharing

$31k buys a lot of car. At least from other manufacturers. But hell, if you were going to get a mini anyway, why not?

I guess I’m looking through my own bias too much, because to me a poor review on grubhub means that the grubhub process for that restaurant sucks, and not the restaurant itself. I’ve tried to use doordash 4 times and it never has worked, but I knew it was a doordash problem and not the restaurant’s fault. I think that

“Delivery apps Seamless and Grubhub have been forcing restaurants to use their services”

I don’t comprehend any of it. I lock my truck doors when it’s inside my garage. If it has a lock - it’s getting locked. 

breaking keys off in the cylinders is next-level theft deterrence. Open this, motherfuckers (because I can’t).

If you drive a manual, you should be real careful about not leaving the thing in neutral (even more than normal). A curious kid is one parking brake and a slight incline away from expensive repairs.

Still, it’s a buffet, the grossest of food delivery systems. And I noted the variety aspect. 

sportsters are fun. not all that fast. not all that light. but fun, and buying one second hand usually means that they haven’t been raced and sent sliding. I don’t think HD is going to develop anything new for the sportster - probably just keep working on their newer street bikes and electrics, for better or worse.
