I don’t claim to be an expert, however while what you are saying is correct I don’t think that that is price fixing. The driver’s aren’t competing against each other, and if I’m not mistaken when the drivers agree to provide the labor using the app of either Uber or Lyft, they agree to do so based on that company’s…

I don’t disagree with that, my point is just that they are not stopping a competitor from coming into their market and attempting to establish a different pay rate for their drivers and thus drive up the cost of the service to better align with what the market could bear. If they were the only two companies capable of…

Unless there were exceptions written in to the state ordinance, then yes and that’s where a lot of other industries rallied against this, alongside Uber and Lyft. Construction is a particularly bad exploiter of the independent contractor labor market. 

Well, yes and no, they aren’t blocking competitors from entering the marketplace, so their prices are based on what their only competition is pushing them to charge.

This is good jalop content, thank you.

The correct number of vintage bikes is expressed as the formula N+1, where “N” is the number of vintage bikes currently owned. Do not try to factor in the number of them which are running, MIT has been working on that formula for years and I doubt they’ll ever solve for it.

OK, accidental fire due to diesel/gasoline mixup. Shit happens.

I ride a vintage HD, in middle Tennessee no less and other than a rare aberration most everyone that I run across who rides a Harley is all about hanging on to that poseur-pirate life, and is all in for trump. If I didn’t love ironheads so much I would ditch it in a heartbeat but it has too much character. Seriously…

Shit like this is why I make it a point to thank Siri whenever she sends a text message or starts a timer for me. Ya’ll being mean to Siri and Alexa ain’t gonna be laughing when you working in a silica mine while I’m up in the server farm in the AC after the robot revolution.

Weren’t these engines good for about 60k before the air poppers quit a-pop-poppin’? Nah dog, $10k out the door isn’t gonna get it, CP.

Speaking as someone with multiple vintage bikes, I understand what you are saying, however the advantage to vintage bikes is so many fit into the same space as one vintage truck. In David’s situation, being space-limited, he needs to make hard decisions.

Not that it matters much, but I am thoroughly impressed with the progress that you’ve made. I hope that with the sale of the XJ you will find some way to pick up (no pun intended) that Willy’s truck you posted about earlier in the week. That is something worth getting a hold of, who knows with the Golden Eagle and…

Ah, the cost of your foolish purchases of the past have robbed you of the ability to take possession of something truly worth your time and effort. Is it like Gift of the Magi-esque? Or just sadly ironic?

So is there a family associated with this guy? Other than the obvious hate for women and women’s rights in general, can his family shed any kind of light on this? Was he so full of uncontrolled hate that he just decided one night to murder-suicide a judge he had argued a case against 5 years ago I believe I read that…

I think for Ford to have really gone for the jugular, a turbo diesel should have been offered. But as for a V8, I don’t think its a miss, Jeep hasn’t had one on offer for decades outside of the Grand Cherokee world, and sales are doing just fine. Honestly if it weren’t for my wife already having a TJ, I would be…

Like many a Gen-X’r, Wishbone was a staple of my pre-able-to-afford-cable-TV college years, and I have fond memories of this show.  As such, I will not have those memories sullied by some half-assed adaptation to the big screen.  Leave well enough alone. 

I love my 4th Gen Runner, and luckily Toyota has a broad enough scope of vehicles to satisfy CARB standards while keeping the body on frame configuration intact, but I worry how much longer it’ll stay that way. I hope the Highlander shields it by being the unibody version (if slightly smaller) that soccer moms with no…
