I have to give BMW credit, because they did learn a whole lot about carbon-fibre construction and sustainable materials in automobile production. I thought the i3 was not ugly, but a very interesting design concept when I first saw it in Huntington Beach. In fact, I wish I would’ve gotten one of the LA County auction…

I hear you. I took the FrecchiRossa from Venice to Rome back in 2012, the TGV from Paris to Switzerland, the Eurostar from London to Paris to Belgium and the Netherlands, and the Shinkansen from Tokyo to Kyoto and it is a damn shame we’ve got NOTHING like that in the US. Absolutely a serious minus in our nation.  

I think they want to avoid having assumed responsibility in the inevitable civil liability suit

Exactly.  I hope the DA doesn’t buckle under the sure to follow intense pressure from local politicians and the like to go easy on the kid.  Certainly he can do the calculus that those bikers likely know people, who know people, too, and the fact that this is getting a lot of traction in the wide media, and he can…

I can see your point, but I will counter that I have a Garmin GPS unit that doesn’t charge me anything for map updates and software upgrades. In Rivian’s case, you’ve paid for the hardware, except you didn’t, because they’re charging you a subscription in perpetuity to use the hardware you “allegedly” already bought.

Definitely will check it out. The big plus for me for Office 365 is the storage and that I can install it on multiple machines. And the constant upgrades. But FREE is always something you don’t turn away....

Yeah...that Jeep dude needs to shut his mouth, especially considering this

Exactly. A woman who posted a profile on a dating app says she wants a man who “successful, just like her” and her “evidence” that she’s successful is a pic from behind the wheel of her BMW.

Why should Sinema care? She conned and cajoled the people to put her into a position to transform her from a very-little-net-worth-former-Green-Party “activist” into a very-well-off-and-going-to-live-even-better Senator who probably doesn’t give a crap about being re-elected, or knows that the average voter will…

Yeah, a big, resolute “no” from me. I mean, I have a hard time paying Microsoft for Office 365 (but at least it gives me the entire suite PLUS a ton of storage and access to other MS stuff), but for my car? If I’m paying a subscription, I may as well lease the thing.

“You showed your entire backside to one of Hollywood’s finest and most beloved”

I wish DAs across the nation would do the same, but then that would take cops willing to stop and detain people who do that, which is very difficult

I think that qualifying was something Red Bull would be happy for, as it hampers Lewis and Bottas from running off into the distance.

He’s right, though. The Supra is a BMW, with all the legacy of BMW behind it. That’s not focusi on badge. That’s a factual evaluation of the car. BMW engineering philosophies in construction, maintenance, serviceability, tolerances etc.

Erik’s a big Max Verstappen fan, so he’ll say anything to prop up Horner’s man-baby.

I would disagree. If any President came up with Trump’s paint scheme they’d get the same flack if not more so. As you said it boring, uninspired and looks like a bad Hollywood movie attempt at what AF1 looks like.

One thing many haven’t realized is that the Trump scheme, given it’s colors, would like cost a hell of a lot more to keep clean, more maintenance due to easily seen chips, scratches and imperfections, and more frequent painting to keep it from looking faded.

“kind of looks like what a movie might do for Air Force One if it wasn’t especially well researched”

We already use the “colors of our flag”....ON THE ACTUAL FLAG. Why get away from an iconic paint scheme instantly recognized around the world for a jet painted like a new age US Airways livery that’s long been ditched, and also so obviously copied off TFG’s now grounded 757, copied purely because he wanted to leave a…

I laugh at every ugly Gladiator I see, because you just know the majority of those people paid way too much for them
