I know people who would think that way. A clean new car where you remove any brand connotations and place it in a nice setting, for them would seem really nice. There are a lot of people, most people, in fact, who just don’t give one shit about cars and if they’re told it’s nice, really don’t have a point of reference…

IDK if I’d consider Saving Private Ryan the standard anymore. Fury is absolutely brutal in its depiction and does a fantastic job at mixing in the human elements too. The Pacific, while a series, is absolutely stellar too, it makes Band of Brothers look like a PBS series.

Can we get an article outlining just what was so bad about the 200 and dart? They look good, great bang for your buck, etc... Minus the FCA stigma I don’t get the hate. They aren’t great cars what made them so bad?

Ok the Chrysler 9 speed in the 200, but the Dart didn’t have that, so there had to be something else.…

The difference is that the truck in Denver will be complete while the one in Chicago is missing 30% of it’s metal.

I once tried to parse the true differences between the 3 engine choices for the Darts. Tigershark, Multiair...I then thought to myself, what am I wasting my life doing this for

For those that can use it, 7000 pounds towing in a vehicle of that size was a nice perk.

I went to an MMA fight last month and a NASCAR race broke out.

They made the simple act of rolling coal illegal without getting to issues related to how people modify their cars. This makes it easier for cops to enforce, and doesn’t get into questions of specific intent. This seems like a win.

The examples may be specific but it’s a very real and broad concern. When a law is crafted to extrapolate intent from presence or possession you have problems and you get definition creep.

It gets to the heart of I fear I’ve had before... What if you bought a truck used and was unaware of, and never used the switch, but it was discovered by an asshole cop who now charges you with “intent to roll coal” even though you didn’t have any such intent.

I don’t want an alarm in my classic car, but a previous…

the NYPD, New York State Police, the DEA, Homeland Security, and eight other goddamn agencies assisted in the year-long investigation into the —- six —-fake Uber driving drug dealers. SIX!

Never specifically noted that, but the grandkids are 3 and 2, respectively, and no knob, button, or lever escapes their attention.

This is beyond beige:

I have been in this situation more times than I care to remember. One time my first son somehow contained enough liquid shit inside himself to overflow his diaper and fill the seat of his car seat. He did it silently too - we had no idea he even pooped, we only noticed the smell after a minute. We had no idea the…

Anyone else know that camelbak bottles with the long straws and chocolate milk become pressurized when they turn from the heat and 2 days in the car?

Haha, that happened with our 2nd in my wife’s car. Strangely, when I pulled up the wax, it had a bunch of dirt and crumbs embedded in it, actually cleaned out the cupholder.

So the car was driven fairly hard and the guy is coming up with excuses for a new motor. Couple that with his claim that he bought the car “from a dealer” last year, which makes it “sound” like he bought it new, but in fact, he’s the second or possibly third owner.

That is what happens when you elect a Democrat that gives no fucks about their constituents. They taxed the dogshit out of their residents to fund their identity politics agenda and now the infrastructure is so fucked they don’t have the money to fix it. Also allowing for manufacturing to move overseas brought this…

So when my Dad said he hit a skunk in his new Fusion, it was actually that he hit some skunk in his new Fusion?
