It’s not even state government, it looks as though the county is responsible for the toll lanes and contracts them out (at great expense) to a private operator after having bought them out of full privatization which there wouldn’t have been demand for unless they were screwing up.

And here I thought it was a big deal that AMC narrowed the Rambler American by a full 3" in a reskin over an unchanged base unibody and front/rear tracks.

I’m thinking that the picture was washed out and someone had to paint the door shutlines back in, and used too thick a brush. 

Freedom will follow commerce, because capitalism and democracy are hand-in-hand. Just like it worked in China.  (/s just in case)

They’re selling *orders* which means people who don’t need-need a new car right away are buying Mavericks, which means that people *want* them.

It’s also a more accommodating four-seater than the Mustang and Camaro. It really is the last two-door sedan. 

Likewise, if you’re doing jungle juice right nothing will survive in it.

In the future people will take the car in when the tires get squirrely.

I’ll give you one guess as to why they couldn’t shelter in the cab. 

The past several years before covid I drove from Burlington, VT to Wayne, NJ for a long weekend for a convention and (bus or train) side trip for an extra day in NYC. Gas prices had a consistent highest-to-lowest order:

Someone mentioned on /r/ShowerThoughts the other day that if NFTs were worthwhile the porn industry would be getting into them a lot more.

Maybe, just maybe, Dick Glandsky’s Nissan-Bugatti-Used Car Superstore still has a few in stock. 

My work buddy’s wife just leased a Leaf, the gen 2 is still FWD but not at all turdeggy. I was tempted to say it looks so normal there’s a tweaker with a hacksaw under it trying to steal the catalytic converter.

According to this article at Curbside Classic there’s no documentation for the Continental claim other than it being on Wikipedia, and the most recent factory vinyl top they could find solid evidence for was the 1996 Cadillac Brougham.
