Good.  These pieces of shit shouldnt be on public roads in the first place.

I just had my Telluride in the shop for recall repairs and was given a VW Taos rental for a week.  I was very pleasantly surprised at the Taos, especially when I saw you can get one new for 23k.  If you needed a car and wanted a new one, I thought this was an outstanding option at that price.

How long did it take to take that blood sample?  It was higher than 0.67 at the time of the arrest.  He’s driving after having been drinking, putting his seatbelt on while the vehicle is in motion.  Sounds like pulling over to investigate makes sense.  Refusing to perform a sobriety test kind of limits the cops…

I had to re-read the title to see it wasnt the Rivian HQ!

...I really liked the Ocean... :(

Completely correct.  I know for a fact that these lease buildings have dealt with much worse tenants.  This doesnt look so bad and the clay model is cool.  More photos of the Alaska we will never see again.

The metro area is much smaller, but getting around Palm Springs/Palm Desert just takes freaking forever due to slow roads and traffic.  It doesnt look so bad on a map, but damn, actually driving it, halfway in youre asking how much longer can this drive possibly take?

And what are you going to do once you get there? You’d better have a car there.  Palm Springs/Desert is fucking enormous and takes seemingly forever to get from point A to point B.

Yup.  Agreed.

This better make all of the news.  This was one of Trumps October Surprises and it got resolved in days.  This is massive.

Thats nice.  Doesnt look like others were so lucky.

Must have been an amusing moment to see our own ship that we sunk ourselves back on the water and in use.

Sounds like they just need the aluminum cables to be thicker to handle the power. Some good info here (not letting me make it linkable):

Christ I hate JD Vance...

Sounds like NASCAR is following the TicketMaster/LiveNation method of acquiring all the venues so they can charge whatever they feel.

I really like the Lyric and am looking into it more as an option.

Isnt that why chargers use aluminum for their cables now?  I thought I read that.  Because otherwise, yeah, thats a ton of free copper literally hanging around.

Pretty soon Nissan is going to be driving around in a Nissan.

Our thermoelectric wine fridge works fantastically, but that has a long time to get and stay cool, only opened with much less frequency than something like a car “fridge” that holds just a few drinks.  The cool air in such a small unit is completely wiped out every time its opened.
