People have jobs, school, and limited vacation time. As enjoyable as a leisurely road trip can be, it isn’t always realistic. Sometimes getting from point A to B as quickly as possible is the only option.  

Tesla is the first one I remember using the term vegan leather, but I’m not sure if they coined it. 

As someone who is an industry analyst for a major OEM I would say that I highly doubt there will be an overall downsizing of vehicles in the foreseeable future. Americans have pretty much always wanted the largest vehicle they could afford, and there is little sign of that changing. If higher interest rates stick…

“Between the increasing cost, environmental issues (i.e. cow farts and the chemicals used to tan the hides) and other issues like veganism, animal welfare, etc., leather is rapidly becoming to the 21st century what fur was to the late 20th century.”

I liked the Flex, but its sales were abysmal. It definitely did not make business sense to keep it going. 

I work as an analyst in the industry. The average transaction price of the Escalade is already $115k right now. It’s not a stretch to say this will do well, even at that price. 

I don’t think it’s just nostalgia. I recall having the same feeling when the SNES debuted. I think part of it is because the leap between console generations used to be greater and more noticeable, improvements are more incremental now. The jump between NES and SNES was huge, the following move to consoles that could…

My kids are 7 and 10, so not toddlers. My 10 year old loves Zelda, Mario, and Minecraft, but has not dabbled in FPS games yet. That is partially because I haven’t really wanted to expose him to those types of games at this point. Something like Halo which doesn’t have much realism is a good place to start. 

As in playing with your kids? That makes sense to me. 

How many people who enjoyed Halo LAN parties back in the day are currently in a stage of life where that is something they can do regularly? I enjoyed them as much as the next guy, but as life moved on playing with friends via the internet became more feasible most of the time. I have a spouse, kids, and a career, as…

The article tells you what they make now, it starts at $18/hr and grows to $32/hr. They also get good profit sharing checks most years. UAW workers also pay pretty much $0 towards their healthcare, which is quite a value for the worker.

We bought a model with a third rack a couple of years ago. I have mixed feelings about it. We mostly use it for container lids, spatulas, and the occasional sharp knife. The rest of the flatware goes in the basket. I find it’s utility to be limited, and sometimes I wish we didn’t have it. We have a lot of tall things…

Does anyone know if holiday lights fall under the “colored light” category? I’ve switched all of my regular lighting to LEDs, but I still don’t think holiday lights are there yet. The colored ones just look too harsh and lack the warmth of the incandescent. I think the white ones have come a long way, but still aren’t…

I have not found this to be the case. My LEDs seem to last about as long as my old bulbs did. 

Not to mention she’d be taking days of pay away from people who work at the venue, restaurants and bars in the area, etc. 

To be fair to the Malibu it appears that it operated as it was designed to. Don’t knock the appliance for user error.

I would have believed the same thing based on how the headline is written, but that doesn’t seem to be the case. There are other examples of the same thing such as Angelina Jolie and Zooey Deschanel. I don’t think either were well-known at the time of those videos. 

I believe so, but that doesn’t seem to be a criteria for this list. Courtney Cox was far from an A-lister when she was in that Springsteen video. 

Surprised there is no mention of Aerosmith’s Crazy which featured both Liv Tyler and Alicia Silverstone. If Graham Chapman is an A-lister those two certainly are as well. 

You forgot to add to avoid this if you can.
