I grew up a biking distance from DCA. Maybe 4-5 miles away. At the time, DCA was ancient and really looked like it was built before WW2 (I think it was).

Just to clarify, do not sneak up and shoot cops. I’m just saying their fevered imagination that anyone is hiding in the trunk for the purpose of shooting them is just a stupid fantasy fear. 

Police chief in my small city of 60k makes $325k per year. Most of the regular cops are pulling in $120k. They make upwards of $200k at the end of their career (in their mid 50s), then spend the last 3 years working a shit ton of OT so that there pensions are inflated based on those last few years of total pay. Then…

Most of forensic science has traditionally been little more than a big circle-jerk designed to produce convictions in court. It has no other function, and the “scientists” who work in the field routinely cite and back up each other’s work to make it all look more legit. This allows them to point at journal articles…

Well, at least owning and maintaining this car kept at least 3 owners from donating more to Trump’s legal defense fund.

“Let me spend 50k to buy and insure a car that I will never drive and will have to keep pristine for it to *checks notes* still decrease in value.”

Look at it this way - it’s keeping another one of these POSes off of the street and we’re all safer for it.

Well they removed most of the breakable bits when they skipped the engine.  So they had to put /something/ in that could break. 

Mitt approves.

I counted 8 binders full of women records.

Still hoping he’ll give you the chance to blow him?  Sad.

There is some ELon Dripping down your chin Mr Trump

I agree, but I did buy a used 2018 Model 3 Long Range AWD (not from Hertz, though - I think I’d walk before renting from them...).

I agree with this, I’m betting the typical renter of these cars probably could not have abused them too much. And, I think it’s a screaming deal and I can afford $18K for a third car that would be a great commuter...but it’s a hard pass because their CEO is who he is. And I don’t say that to be sensationalistic, I…

There’s no such thing as a free lunch.

Maybe everybody in his cohort ragged on him because he was driving a Genesis, not a Benz?

I can’t imagine how you could not determine that a vehicle didn’t fit you on an extended test drive. Unless you didn’t bother to do one. Which would make you an idiot.

That’s about $1000 more than my mortgage....  (And my car payments are currently $0.)  I can’t even imagine that level of financial irresponsibility.  

The arguments you make has been brought up by Toyota lots of times already:

Except that is a false comparison. Hybrids will never have zero tailpipe emissions, you can see that in the hydrogen ICE (which still generate NOx emissions despite having no CO2 emissions). This is to ignore even that with gasoline powered hybrids, by way of physics, there will always be CO2 and other pollutants gener…
