Stop blaming pedestrians.

How, exactly, does distracted walking or driving increase the percentage of fatal accidents?

been cycling for 20 years and I fail to see the type of cyclist you’re talking about

While Ricardo and his “Rich Corinthian Leather” tag line have never really done anything for me, the round-eyed version of that car is one of my all time faves. I am a big fan of the mid-70's “personal luxury coupe” trend ... 30 years ago I had a (used) 77 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme which lasted for 3 or 4 years until

Service businesses like Shipt are in a hard spot ... there is not so much profit margin they just suddenly invest a bazillion dollars in internal customer service staff ... it takes time and money to get customer service staff ramped up (training & equipment especially are both time consuming and expensive to acquire).

*narrator: It isn’t what he said.*

that vehicle ownership cost him $8,000 less than his neighbor.

The secret of course is to buy the car right, keep the car a long time and don’t drive it much. :-).

The study also found that depreciation was the most common underestimate,

Supposedly KBB bases it’s valuations on registered transaction prices. As in, car is sold 2nd hand, gets registered, the selling price is listed. Unfortunately that may paint an inaccurate picture ... in California the selling price for a private party transaction is reported by the buyer, and some people report an

Wow, today’s Q’s are some doozies ... as in, what are these people smoking? I’ve known all kinds of multi-car households throughout my lifetime, still know several whether they are married couples at the beginning of life together, established families, or empty nesters. Never ever have I ever known any couple or

I generally don’t mind someone going fast on a clearly open and untraveled piece of road, but I suspect most of these high speed stops are for people doing the deed in traffic, as the article did mention I-5 here in California which is one of the busiest / most heavily travelled freeways around. Even with a 35%

I haven’t had any need to travel the freeways of late, so can’t speak to the prevalence of CHP there, but I see cops everywhere around town. For some reason they’ve stationed a local police body at my grocery store. Don’t really know why.

Yeah, I-5 even with a 35% reduction in traffic is still effin *crowded*, no bones about it. Normally you can’t hit the ton easily because all 4 lanes are jammed up at a steady 60 or so with semi’s in all lanes but the left. So everybody and their kitchen sink is in that left lane causing it to be even slower than the

and for what matters to EV owners

Most drivers travel less than 30 miles a day. <snip> for extended trips, you would change a few things up, but I wouldn’t call that routine for most Americans.

Not after the $7500 Federal Tax Credit and state incentives

Electric vehicles do not suit the driving style of most non-coastal Americans.

This sites insistence on hating pickups is baffling.

The game is not “Would you buy this car?”. The game is: “Is this a fair price for this vehicle?”.
