I still think their system where everyone gets penalty points no matter what sucks. Plus they need to ease up the threshold of what constitutes contact. A bumper touch in a tight pack should not be 4x. Bumping and touching happens in racing.  I usually race much more conservatively in traffic for fear of touching

He barely won in 2016. He has been nothing but an unmitigated disaster ever since, but it wasn’t really affecting Main St USA because the economy was getting juiced artificially. That’s gone now. People will look for stability again.

Short of straight up election fraud (plausible) Trump is toast. He’s the incumbent and he’s behind Biden in every battleground state. They are dead even in Texas for crying out loud. If an incumbent Republican can’t carry Texas, he’s done.

It’s gonna happen.  Might as well retreat to Idaho and Montana now.  Nevada is already there and Arizona is next.

Hey, I know those people. I fought with a handful of them last week when I made a general comment that the comments section had been getting more toxic lately. They lined up to self-identify that they have a RIGHT to be an asshole because they provide “clicks” or something.

No, we don’t need them martyring him. By November they’ll have rewritten his image into a saint.

I’m feeling more and more confident that he will go down in flames in November. I just hope he grabs the GOP’s ankle as he’s going down the drain. They could have stopped this at any time. They could have installed Pence and gotten all the judges and corporate handouts they want without the chaos.  They chose to stand

Totally unbelievable!  There won’t be any Fiat 500's still on the road in 13 years.

I saw a video where people trapped an autonomous car by drawing a chalk circle around it.  Roadside robberies could be pretty easy if the driver can’t just floor it and leave as you approach the car.

Top Gear was ahead of their time.

Do you think cheating is happening on iRacing? I’ve been in fixed setup races where one or two people are a full two seconds faster than everyone else. That can’t be because they have a better line or brake later or accelerate sooner, can it?

I thought they already had a Lemons-esque series on iRacing. It’s called the Carburetor Cup. Only the lucky survive.

Yes. I explained it in more depth in subsequent responses to other people. I don’t want to keep cluttering up the thread with the same info. But long story short, the car had sentimental appeal, but I didn’t HAVE to have it. I offered a price closer to what similar cars were listed at and they didn’t want to budge on

This is pretty much the only site I interact with the comments section simply because the commenters are the best I’ve ever encountered. Yeah, there’s a small percentage of unreasonable blowhards that get mouthy, but I find them to be the minority. The vast majority of the people that comment here are reasonable,

Toyota sold 2884 Supras and 3398 86’s in 2019. Granted, the development costs were shared with BMW and Subaru, but those are pretty low volume numbers to justify federalizing a model for not much ROI. 

I’m well aware of how out of touch people are when it comes to them valuing their own stuff. Just look at the idiots on craigslist.

An industrial park on a Sunday doesn’t do it for you in the aesthetics department?

My office is within earshot of the bathrooms and I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard the toilet flush and five seconds later hear the door open and watch the person haul ass past my office.  Even now!  They are literally pounding it into our heads of “wash your hands or you could die” and people still aren’t.

I was just giving you my interpretation of your “everybody is lying on both sides.” I know salespeople get lied to a lot. I’m sure they get very jaded, very quickly. When I worked the deal for my 2017 Tacoma, the salesman actually said to me, “Huh, you actually do what you say you’re going to do.” And it was obvious

The funny thing with liars is they think everybody lies like they do.  I don’t lie to salesmen when working a deal.  I may not lay all my cards on the table right away, but I don’t lie.  If you treat me with respect as someone with intelligence, I will do the same with you.  If you want to try sales “tactics” on me,
