The model 3 is doing well because it is stealing people away from the BMW 325 lease specials. Its priced right and as a “luxury compact car” its right in 325 leasers target zone. Used to see them everywhere, now i just see model 3s.

I always think it’s sad when musicians get trapped in label deals, but was there a specific reason she wanted to renegotiate other than “I got famous faster than I thought I would and want a bigger slice of the pie faster than what’s stipulated in my contract”? Because ... I still feel for Meg, but why would a label…

As dumb as the outside looks, the inside is much, much worse. The plastic fantastic interior is the number one thing keeping me from getting one.

The real problem is that by all accounts you only get anywhere near that range if you live somewhere with a mild climate, and are continually conscious to drive the car like it has half the advertised power.

I read some marketing material somewhere that called it a CUV.

That makes a lot of sense. I forget to take the “you walked into a dealership” discount that Chevy puts on everything into account. I actually like the Bolt for what it is, but I feel like people automatically skip over a compact hatch at that price unless they’re getting into a Golf R

Theory: The Bolt would probably do better on the market if the styling was more “small crossover” and less “glorified Spark.” It’s actually pretty tall, so they could pull that off.

Man the Bolt is expensive! It’s no wonder the Model 3 does as well as it has

She doesn’t seem to know as much about mobilizing an electoral coalition though unless her intention is to split the progressive vote

The free snacks are part of the difference between a bar and a tavern. I would eat any other food the place made. Plus its not like you are all dipping into one big bowl. They give you your own basket.

RIP Ground Round, you gloriously local predecessor to TGI Fridays.

Ah okay, that makes more sense.

IKR? Allison is making this sound like it is a bad thing.

There is a tavern in my neck of the woods that puts out baskets of bacon on certain nights instead of popcorn.

I fail to see the issue here.

Clearly you don’t work in engineering, because frankly it’s astounding to see just how much technology these companies are capable of packing into such a small package.  

I sometimes wonder if the conversation about pricing is something like this:

I stopped caring about flag ship devices when the price climbed past $500. It was nice to splurge on my wife every few years to get her the new hot device, but at these prices we haven’t upgraded our phones in a long while. mid range devices don’t carry enough hype to excite and top end devices are way expensive.

I love it but lets face it. Its not going to happen. At least not very similar to the concept. Suicide doors and no B pillar? Yep. Not happening.
