Well, Texas sued the EPA 31 times. I guess it’s time some other state took up the slack.

I definitely think that the start button being on the left-hand side of the steering wheel is a Porsche must. They can change virtually anything else on any of their cars, but the key/start button goes on the left.

He will also probably call her Mary GM.

My kid would like it.

They talked before about the Taycan starting at just under what the Panamera starts at. I don’t know what kind of performance those will have... or if they’ll even ever meet that price point... but the earlier plan seemed to be that the low-end Taycan would be price competitive with the higher-end Teslas.

Which was not quite as bad as when the Germans were putting SS on things.

That’s actually a pretty low number considering. I mean, more people die falling down stairs in any given year and not a lot higher than the number of people who freeze to death each year. 

All I said was that an Acura carrying the NSX badge would be more popular at $60K. That’s basic supply-and-demand.

Obviously not for people in the market for such a car.

While I am happy for VW that they’re having success with their new Jetta. I see that 2018 Jetta sales were very shitty and 2019 is down from 2017 by pretty significant numbers over 2017.

Why limit it to 63 when they could add six more?

My local Sonic will still have some carhops on roller skates to this day, though they’re usually roller blades now.

I thought maybe there was something new I wasn’t aware of in terms of teaching people to drive on manuals.

Why is that?

I knew I shouldn’t have bought the Cassandra model.

Dallas!

Any organization can go bad over time, and once it goes bad, it’s extremely difficult to get it back on track.

The GLB looked better with the off-road tires and roof-mounted fog lights from the earlier, regular-flavor introduction.

I got to about 40K miles in six years from new.

I hope reliability has come a long way since my 2004 Mazda6.
