I had one 2006 model. CVT never gave a single problem. Did the dealer fluid change at 80,000 miles and just sold it last week with 160,000. Was always worried something bad was going to happen to the tranny but it never did.

Take your star and get out.

What amazing times we live in. This sort of thing has probably gone on for decades (if not longer) and from both sides of the aisle. You think At&T and Novartis just magically knew to find Cohen? I’m guessing when the change in administration their lawyers and lobbyist just asked around Washington for the new address…

I drive 40 miles each way to work each day. I drive a Focus. I only transport myself and I want to do it in the cheapest way possible in both initial cost and every day cost. After 150,000 miles the wheels will fall off and I’ll get a new one. There’s no sense in buying a vehicle for $20k+ and destroying it when I can…

I also had 2000 Corolla. It also had emissions issues that never failed to go away. At about the 100,000 mile mark it started burning oil. By the time I finally got rid of this POS it was taking a quart of oil with every tank of gas. At that point I swore off Toyotas. Now that they’ve changed the engine in Corollas…

I’m a Cardinals fan and I think this is awesome. If one of our players got called out from something like this I’d be yelling at him for being a dumbass and not the heads up 3rd basemen.

Out here in the midwest suburbs most burglaries start with the thief ringing the doorbell to see if anyone is home. If no one answers, no dogs bark, and all the lights are off they’ll go around back to look for unlocked doors and windows.

I don’t watch pro basketball (I’m live in St. Louis) but do they even call traveling anymore?

Sorry I can’t give you ninja or cousin. Ninja because when my kids sneak up on me and attack me with tickles I call them my ninjas. I won’t curtail that use as there’s no malice behind it.

Apparently it was a piece of copy about a glass blowing exhibit at a local museum. It’s not exactly unheard of for Mike Shannon to flub his words into NSFW territory. http://www.stltoday.com/news/local/cardinals-broadcaster-mike-shannon-commits-another-classic-on-air-oopsie/article_5188f296-cc99-56f9-8e25-2d8a1b3c1562.…

Survivors? “a person who copes well with difficulties in their life.” I guess that’s one word to use. I’d probably have chosen victim “a person harmed, injured, or killed as a result of a crime, accident, or other event or action.”

I understood that reference!

Normally I would agree with you. However, in this case watching the video from the officers cameras the officers never announce them selves as police. I don’t know the ins and outs of police procedure and legality but yelling don’t move in a dark driveway doesn’t sound like the best way to start an interaction. The…

Even airline pilots can get complacent. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2432847/Both-pilots-asleep-cockpit-packed-plane-dont-worry-autopilot.html

The Tesla hit escape speeds and is currently in a solar orbit that takes it out in to the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Because it’s orbit is elliptical it will cross the orbits of Earth, and Mars. And if it got lucky and managed to get a gravity assist it could go just about anywhere. Watch some timelapses…

I was never a big NFL fan and being from St. Louis I have even less a reason to be now. The reason I left watching football was its hubris. It was on such a meteoric run for so long that NFL got an “F you” attitude to everyone. Players want more money “F you”. Fans want to go to a game, “F you” spend multiple hundreds…

Conspiracy Theory: Jeff Fisher was instructed to be intentionally bad to get the Rams out of St. Louis. The Rams needed to be bad to stop the fans from showing up so Stan Kroenke could have a case in front the owners to move. Sure he spent up to the salary cap for evidence he was trying to make a good team. Still if…

2014 Ford Focus with leather seats. When it’s cold there’s a rattle deep in the passenger seat. Once internal temps go above 50 or so it goes away. Thinking about getting a 50 lb bag of sand and buckling it into the seat for the winter.

Skip athletes and slackers. Instead find the computer nerds. Talk to them nicely and they’ll worship the ground you walk on.

And within 5 years after that he’ll be part of a police brutality or officer involved shooting investigation. File this guys name away, he will be in the news again.
