There is no type of information which is more readily or completely conveyed by video than by text. If you want to explain something, write it down in words. Using videos to explain things just means you don’t care to actually convey information, just to monetize it. Similarly, I don’t watch “shows,” I read things.

Nokians >>>>>>>> all other snow tires.

I would much rather live in a place with snow than a place without snow. I can’t understand why you wouldn’t want snow. Snow is awesome. There’s no better feeling than waiting for the first real snow of the season and then driving out to a big empty parking lot to rip huge endless donuts and spins in the snow.

I don’t watch videos on the internet, so I have no idea if this was addressed in the video, but while Michelin snow tires are great (I have Michelin X-Ice xI3's for my Mustang), Michelins are not the best snow tires. If you want the best snow tires, go to a company that only makes snow tires. You want the Nokian Hakkap…

To this day the Fisker Karma is the single best-looking car I have ever seen on the street. Better than any Aston or Ferrari or anything you could name. Achingly beautiful. I’ll always have a soft spot for Fisker.

... why. Why? WHY? 

Admittedly this sounds like a fun night, I’d want to tell everybody about that.

This only works if you have a regular schedule. If you might be leaving work at 6:00, or maybe 6:40, or perhaps if something comes up then at 7:30, or wow how is it 9:00 already?, like most of us then this isn’t terribly useful.

Does anybody actually use this credit? The Venn diagram of people who have adjusted gross incomes under $300k for married filing jointly and people who can afford to buy a new EV seems like two entirely separate circles.

How does it compare to a Ford Bronco in terms of offroad capabilities? More capable, less?

I’m raising a questioning eyebrow at the $600 / month in gas.

Tim Scott’s campaign raised $5.8 million last quarter; he has plenty of paid staffers. And plenty of campaign staffs are unionized. The UAW’s complaint here isn’t tenuous at all; it’s very direct and very clearly correct. It’s no more tenuous a link than if I saw somebody slashing the tires on a car and called the…

Yeah I am 100% dying in my house, absolutely never moving with that interest rate.

2014, I was vacationing in Fort Lauderdale with my sister. I had driven down from Brooklyn, and she’d flown down a few days later. When we were returning, she had to take a 6:00 a.m. flight to be able to get to work, and so I thought it would be a good idea to drop her at the airport at 5:00 a.m. and then just drive…

In 2021 I bought my wife an off-lease 2018 Lexus RX350 for $33,000.

In 1920 there were airplanes, movies, telephones, radios, cars, and typewriters. In 1970 there were airplanes, movies, telephones, radios, cars, and typewriters. There were spaceflights that maybe 100 people total worldwide had been on. The only serious technological breakthrough during that period was the…

Oh really? What major developments in technology occurred between 4,800 B.C. and 4,750 B.C.?

I’m sorry, I don’t know what fantasy land you live in, but I live here in the real world, where 50 years isn’t enough time for the way things are designed or built to change in any meaningful way. NASA may use computers to figure out how to land a man on the moon, but no private businesses are using computers for…

That sounds like something that would require using computers. They weren’t using computers in auto design when I was in Detroit in the 70's; I doubt that anything has changed that much in so short a time since then.
