I think that some people are using the word “drone” in that manner, but by the ‘technically correct’ definition, to be a drone the vehicle/craft has to be at least semi-autonomous. I.e., not always under direct control of a remote pilot/driver.

Holy crap this is insane. This “issue” isn’t even an IKEA issue ... ALL tall / light-construction dressers (and bookshelves), ESPECIALLY those intended (or likely) to be used in children’s rooms are supposed to be anchored to the wall. Every fargin dresser or bookshelf you buy from WalMart or Target or any other shop…

there’s reason to be concerned that this bill might hinder certain press freedoms. Any bill that limits the ability of members of the media to do their jobs (which sometimes includes drone photography) must be closely examined for any potential loopholes that would give state authorities permission to control what…

how many times have you had a car in the shop and the shop promises the parts will be in “tomorrow” and tomorrow comes...three months later?

I guarantee you, nobody is going to tow anything with a $70,000 trophy truck. This is built to be seen driving, not to break fingernails doing actual work.

I’ve gotta say, I think all the “What, a $65,000 truck?” stuff is misplaced.

Alrighty, I know I’m treading on religious grounds now, but most “crossovers” are SUVs. There are very few body-on-frame SUVs left in this world. All small and midsize SUVs are crossovers (at least of vehicles sold in the U.S.).

As an SUV driver I resent that last statement. Most SUV’s are big boxes with generally large greenhouses, it is incredibly easy to see all 4 corners. In fact in my Tahoe I find

those 35 days of down time mean that the truck is not trucking, not doing its job, not paying its bills

§ Average repair cost for the four F-150s was $7,720, $1,755 more than for the Silverados. That is 29% more.

I live and work in suburban Northern California, and generally only ride during fair weather conditions. I base my gear on the planned distance of the ride and known road conditions. A five minute ride to a local coffee shop? Helmet & gloves & foot coverings (anything that doesn’t leave toes exposed basically), but…

It’s almost as though you take some offense to people spending their money foolishly being told they’re spending their money foolishly?

If you buy a Mercedes as a status symbol you still use it for its main purpose. If you buy a truck for a status symbol chances are it will never be used for its main purpose.

I think you just touched a point that you didn’t address (at least not directly) in your article when you say “most of your luxury car dealers don’t play games” ... I’m sure there’s a notable difference between how most higher-end dealers behave and the bottom half (two-thirds? three-quarters?) of the market. And…

A bandana is not just a “piece of fabric tied around the head” ... it’s a very specific shape and it doesn’t have holes for seeing through. There’s already a word that specifically means something you place over your face for disguise purposes, and that word is “mask”.

If I make a hat out of a shoe is it a hat or a shoe?

sporting some spiffy bandanas to match their Ninja Turtle counterparts

Are you dense? What exactly are you referring to with, awful prehistoric bullshit 3 wheeler? The Morgan possibly or maybe the Polaris Slingshot?

Well driving across the country is actually more expensive than the flight.

If you’re on a bicycle, stay the fuck off the highways. Holy shit, that was easy to solve.
