Yeah but wagons aren’t nearly big or aggressive-looking enough for the average american consumer who doesn’t want to admit that their overpriced SUV is literally just a wagon with a higher ride height and less cargo room.

*That is

That’s an Android, so you just offended Data. ;)

“I am an android. You can tell because I can’t use contractions.”

It was pretty obvious what you meant in context. I just didn’t read it very well. I’m the idiot with the snarky comment that doesn’t make sense because I didn’t read. 

Heck, the auto-train at the airport that takes you from the terminal to your gate is level 3

By Erik’s definition, the Voyager probes have never been to space. Erik’s definition is awful.

In her case, AutoPilot probably saves a life or two every time she gets behind the wheel. 

If they were going to merge, you would never be able to tell until they’re already doing it.

Well you see Count Slow car slow, the mirrors stay with the doors while ou....Gently massages your buttocks. Shall we discuss the price?”

Stop and go traffic is the absolute worst. I’ve now got a 2010 S4 with a DSG, and man that thing loves to lurch forward when I let off the brakes, even just a bit, to the point where sometimes I need to hit the brakes pretty hard to not hit the person in front of me.

I have to say, I did NOT have “My beater pickup featured in a Jalopnik article” on my 2019 Bingo card but it’s a funny old world, innit?

God I fucking hope so. Over the last 10 years driving at night has become dramatically more difficult because glare from other cars has gotten so bad, and I know it’s not my eyes getting worse because when most pre-2010 cars pass me I’m fine. I’m also 26 so I don’t exactly have geezer eyes.

Yeah we realized we had to look at things like the Ford Flex to get similar cargo space. Our dog is a 70 lb lab mix and we just had her on the back seat in our Impala. She isn’t one of those dogs that likes looking out the window though and car rides can be rather stressful. The humane society we adopted her from said…

annnnnd it already broke down, literally on the way home for the guy who bought it

Listen, in a recession there are sacrifices that must be made. If I have to forego my usual 5 glasses of some anonymous red blend of questionable origin to survive the financial apocalypse, so be it. At least I won’t die from a lack of carbs and sodium.
