And there’s still a bunch of worthless crap being added in.

It’s not a Coleco. Those Colecos will rust up on you just like that.

There’s no mention of it because BMW didn’t put that in their press release.

I can’t find the number for 2021, but in 2020, Ford exported just over 280,000 vehicles built in the US. If that number held true for 2021, then that’d be slightly more than BMW, though as the article notes we’re talking about the value of the vehicles exported rather than the number when crowning BMW the king of US

No, but removing barriers to export could potentially help manufacturing that’s already here build more cars for export.

I feel like one of my local dealers may be pulling a swicheroo on Maverick orders. They’ve got at least one hybrid Maverick with a $5,000 mark-up over sticker. I was under the impression that the hybrid Mavericks were order-only.

When I go to a doctor, they still do the forehead temperature thing and require masks, and I think places like the Social Security office are still closed to visitors. My wife still wears a mask and shield at work, but she works with immunocompromised kids. A lot of employers in restaurants and whatnot seem to be

I saw a Polestar 2 in the wild for the first time the other day. It looked good.

I refrained from yelling at the officers who were blocking my street which was probably wise since it turns out they’d shown up in force to a call about a man with a gun several houses down from mine threatening to kill himself.

Though they were very much against states having the right to free or otherwise refuse to return “fugitive” slaves in their states.

I mean, there’s got to be something between ‘Heat’ or Walter White and what we got with this as far as crime shows go.

Turns out his name is Majordomo. And yes, he’s heard all the jokes.

I don’t know. I didn’t watch any of the toons, but I can gather enough from the show to get the gist of who these people are or what their stuff is. And if all they’re giving us is what they gave us, the gist is about all I need.

I used the cruise control when I used to travel a lot between my home and my parents (roughly 350 miles away) to make sure I didn’t speed given that the highway was lousy with speed traps. Don’t really have much use for it now that I mostly stick to suburban driving.

I kinda think this was sarcasm, but....

When I was in high school, I happened to find a really nice, long ice scraper, broom that was great for knocking the snow and stuff off the roof of my truck and fit perfectly behind the seat. And then I accidentally left it in the truck when my Dad sold it. Took me forever to find another one that was as good.

The general manager of the closest Kia dealership to me is an old high school classmate of mine, and they still treat me like shit there.

The silly one is my favorite.

Yeah, the dealer I had been talking to told me back toward the end of 2021 that was going to be the last chance to get an order in before summer of 2022.

I’ve only seen two in the wild so far where I live in Texas, but they are still difficult to get around here, too, and it seems they have many who have bought but not yet received.
