And since they are of a very stupid dimension (skinny and extremely low profile), they are easily damaged by the war torn roads found in most US states. A friend took delivery of a Model 3 at the beginning of the year and has already replaced three tires thanks to the Long Island Expressway.

I feel like if you are at all competent, your workload at the new job will soon start mounting until you are back up to the same stress level.

In 2003 I bought a Tercel 4x4 Wagon (good decision) for $1,100 in Colorado. Two days later I packed it up and drove towards Los Angeles. I got rather frightened when it started misfiring somewhere out in the middle of the desert, but I opened the hood just to look like I knew what I was doing. I aimlessly touched a…

Neutral: There is a famous leather shop on Christopher Street, near Hudson. I once managed a restaurant nearby and the last time I blushed was when one of our regulars showed me a picture of what he had just bought there for Halloween.

I generally hate it when people paint Alfas red, but it is definitely an improvement over light beige...

1987 Chevrolet Turbo Sprint - during a broke period I neglected to change the oil and blew a fist-sized hole in the tiny engine block. Some dudes gave me a ride and then swung back to the car, broke a window and stole my stereo. But wait! It doesn’t end there! Cops caught them and for the next five years I would…

Nice! I am glad I wrote “seems to...” Thanks for taking the time.

Also, remember how reluctant Toyota was to introduce front-wheel drive? When they finally did (1st gen Tercel), it was with a longitudinal engine so that they could retroengineer it to be RWD if necessary... their policy has historically been to let other firms work out the kinks and get the market ready before they…

Bwahahah progression. One unbuildable design which took three minutes to draw, and a variety of windshield wiper lengths.

I hate to post in support of someone who seems to follow Ayn Rand, but in the USSR mistakes were often treated as intentional sabotage as the leadership tried to explain away all production related issues as the result of saboteurs. Here, you are unlikely to get even fired from a government job unless you really suck…

I am amazed that no one who worked at the station didn’t notice anything amiss. No, wait, I am not.

I think for 3X you should consider 30X or probably even 300X.

In any case, it is nice to have him expressly say that white nationalism is “a road to nowhere.”

I see what you are saying (and would like everyone to stay off my private island) but I assure you that Darth Vader Santa is straight down the center line of what RAV4 and CR-V owners and other bland folks love.

I’m 44 and I wouldn’t trust my reflexes to race around professionals, not to mention staying alert for a long distance race. How many Le Mans competitors are over 60 anyhow?

So far, humans have proven themselves able to increase their use of hydrocarbons at an alarming rate no matter what.

Pretty sure that the only thing Chinese buyers are worried about is how big the LCD screen is.

I was going to make a comment relating to DT and that Beijing Jeep, but never mind. Come to the better place!

No CARB. It can either be sold out of state or to someone who is willing to spend unknowable amounts of money to get it registered in CA. There are companies who just vacuum up non-smoggable cars in California and sell them in other states.

Isn’t handing out heavily subsidized gas a mainstay of both the Venezuelan and Iranian governments?
