Exactly, because of that separation, which may also keep your possessions more safe. For me the negatives strongly outweigh the positives (I just moved a large bookshelf and some other stuff in my wagon without having to disassemble anything) but sedans clearly offer some benefits over SUVs and CUVs.

CUVs are just crappy versions of station wagons. Andy even included a description that made it clear that “car” was not limited to sedans. If footprint was everything, then there’d be more hatchbacks. As for sedans, I don’t much like them either, but a lot of people love having the luggage fully separated from the…

One of the worst feelings is standing peacefully on the sidewalk and almost getting hit by a bus mirror. Not as bad as actually getting hit, I imagine, but it’s very uncomfortable.

Also, I think motorcycle sales are a canary in the coal mine for the economy writ large - an HD is the symbol of “American with Disposable Income.”

This. Modern limousines never made any sense, anyhow, low and uncomfortable. Out in Long Island there are still a lot of limos around; I just saw one based on a Mercedes GLS.

What’s wrong with the “Tesla Now Charges Extra For the Yoke” article? It is impossible to comment on it.

This is a lot cooler, and much more parkable (NYC). But mileage and price are both quite high, so ND for sure.

$13K with that mileage seems very steep. It’s funny, I am much more likely to vote ND on a car I would actually consider buying - I presume because it is easier to envision spending someone else’s money.

If you call in and report a dangerous condition (like thirty people living in a single apartment), DOB will eventually send an Inspector. If no one opens the door, the Inspector will return once more. If no one opens the door, then the complaint is laid to rest. Unfuckingbelievable.

Stupid people tend to s**t where they eat.

Judging by how people get on and off my train in the morning, this can not be anything but a permanent disaster. It might work for the rest of us, though, as all the rudest individuals out there start preferring Southwest and leave the rest of the airlines alone.

Plus - tons of seats, no crowding.

Counterpoint: You should buy a cheap Maserati.

How much to swap for the redesigned one?

Problem is that it hurts our allies and pushes them away. No country can go it alone.

I meet Americans daily or weekly who do not comprehend the basic concept of interest.

A friend’s tuned up Alfa Romeo 90 caught fire, surprising no one. My grandfather’s Peugeot 403 caught on fire while on a road trip in England, full up with vacation luggage for the whole family. It was quickly put out and vacation was completed without incident, although he traded the Pug in for a Volvo Amazon later…

Pretty much all of it, but screens, zero visibility, and black fender trims being the worst. Along with the overly aggressive, jagged designs (c’mon Toyota), but perhaps Honda’s more mature recent designs (HR-V, Accord) are heralds of things to come.

These are all just... too normal for me. The Stanza is faintly interesting, but the 626 and Camry are simply too competent and boring. The Phoenix actually triggers me the most, which is confusing to me.

Yep - my brother has been Miata hunting for some time and this is a fair deal. I told him about it, if he gets it I will report.
