Well, it used to be that way. People didn’t drive safer, they just died a hell of a lot more.

My dad wants to *give* me his boat and I’m like ‘nah’. I grew up with all the fucking maintenance for a few weeks of fun. Not worth it. I’ll make friends with someone who has a boat if I feel the need.

Best two days of RV/Boat ownership: the day you buy it, and the day you sell it.

This is the best take. People with no mechanical skills should not buy RV’s or boats. They will have a miserable ownership experience. Anything that sits on water or wheels with complex one off mechanical and electrical systems is going to need constant maintenance and repairs. Cars have significant investments in R&D…

Alternative idea: don’t buy an RV. They’re just the absolute worst.

This kid is a low life bag of dicks, but this is unfortunately not a Texas problem. I've seen a lot of it going on around me in Pennsylvania.

If you’re old enough/judged responsible enough to drive a vehicle on public roads, you’re old enough/responsible enough to face adult charges for vehicular crimes.

“I can’t image Elon Musk doing something insanely stupid”

Good point, things worked out just fine for Edsel!

Offensive? No. Complete shit compared to what they have now? Yes.

Because it was designed by famed industrial designer Raymond Loewy, who certainly knew what he was doing. It looks understated and still fresh and modern.

No one’s outraged that he wanted to use red, white, and blue.

The classic livery looks pretty timeless, if you ask me.

It’s a tacky, unoriginal livery that lacks any class, panache, or refinement.

I think folks of all political persuasions can appreciate this thing. If I had the money and land, I can certainly see myself having a blast driving around in a tank.

You must mean the most important vehicle in the Back to the Future franchise. The producers spent three entire films of a movie franchise focusing on a time travelling Delorean, and totally missed the star of the show.

But you were in the mood to write 7 paragraphs.

In Washington state, it’s not required to wear a helmet, but in the event of a potentially fatal accident, lack of one is an automatic DNR. I think that’s a pretty fair rule for those “freedom” types

Yeah, imagine if being near someone who was in a crash could cause you to involuntarily crash your own car. And there were simple, cheap things you could do to prevent car crashes almost entirely.

Jason is not a Tesla hater. Stop with the nonsense.
