More like “Keep refining the process/parts for 14 years”. 

Wagon wheels next.

US consumers: haven’t had a meaningful raise in decades.

You know, the more I think about this, I can see it working. While the people in the “Cars” corner of the internet will complain about something like this, the general public doesn’t give a flying fuck about the brand value. They’ll see this and think “Oh hey, the Mustang. I know that name. They’re sporty and cool…

LOL, those early retirees rack up more miles in a year than most riders do in 10. I had multiple repeat customers who would put 75 to 100k a YEAR on their Goldwings. Meanwhile,bench racers everywhere disparage them as “Winebike-os” while polishing that 10 year old supersport with 2500 miles on it.

See HBO, you can end a story properly. :D

It’s useful knowledge to have, especially if you plan to travel to places like Europe which still cling to manuals as “standard” equipment, but in this country, I imagine in the near future someone who can still drive manual will be as much of an oddity and finding a modern car with wind up windows, a carburetor, or 4…

This makes me happy and sad at the same time.

“Mustang-inspired” involves grafting a Ford Edge front end onto an Escape, apparently.

You chastised me through eight lines to finally come around to my point, and while it may appear to be the exception to you, I think it’s more along the lines of about 50-50, maybe 55-45. But I may live in a fatter state than you.

Same here. Born on the tail end of the “Boomers,” we’re members of a group sometimes called the “Baby Bust”. In a socio-cultural sense, Baby Busters have as many thing in common with GenX as they do with the dreaded Boomers.

I see usage of the phrase more as a flag that the user can’t piece together a cognitive argument or counter-position. So this phrase is just a verbal middle finger made by oafs.

Born in 64 and agreed. The sick thing about being a boomer (as in throw up kinda sick not the cool 1980’s kinda sick) is that my mom is also a boomer. I mean how do you define a generation that covers 3 decades when peeps  these days need a new generation named for them every 20 days or so? 

The “Ok, Boomer” shit, like a lot of our culture, is stupid.

Exactly. I think this is just complete-twats-who-can’t-drive-for-shit-and-yet-drive-massive-SUVs syndrome, or CTWCDFSAYDMS Syndrome. I’m comfortable driving an SUV, but they can be a handful due to their size, I’m british, my Range Rover Classic feels like trying to drive a supertanker sometimes when I’m in built up…

Simultaneously hard rock.

I want the rock on my lawn. It will keep the cars off it.

Classic rock. 

People seemed to do okay with big trucks, station wagons, etc. “back in the day”. It’s people being inattentive, lazy lumps that leads to this.
