Terrible luck, and obviously you can’t always account for assholes, but I also feel like a little more situational awareness could have gone a long way here.

Yes, because nobody uses them to tow boats, haul trailers, put shit in the back of that you wouldn’t want inside a car, carry construction tools and supplies, etc. I have an EV and a Tacoma and there are things I do that require a pickup. I’ll be switching it for an electric truck whenever a small and/or reasonably…

My grandfather had a Mighty Max as a farm truck for over 15 years. It was the most abused vehicle I’ve ever driven, there were plants growing in the bed, there was so much dirt on the dash you couldn’t read the gauges, and it burned an astronomical amount of oil. Because of the damaged exhaust, the cabin would fill up…

I had an ‘86 or ‘87 Mighty Max Sport; cost about $7100 brand new. At the time, toyota p/u were next to impossible to get, Ranger only had a 2.0L base engine IIRC. The Mitsu had a 7' bed, alloy wheels, 2.5L engine, 5sp m/t and a couple stripes...ran just like a period Toyota, you would be hard pressed to tell the…

There aren’t enough green cars.

Nothing more manly than relying on the rest of the community to do the heavy lifting for you.

The only reason the GOP doesn’t want DC as a state is because they vote overwhelmingly democrat, which means 2 more democratic senators getting in the way of their agenda. The same goes for Puerto Rico.

I scrolled this entire article (which I don’t give ahoot about ^^) just to say this.

That’s what she looked like before turning herself into a robotic sexdoll ?????

This is super sad. She was gorgeous.

My God she was so pretty back then. What is she thinking fucking with her face like she has.

Russia’s been waging the same propaganda war it’s running against America on the democratic ex-Soviet states since they left the union. Unsurprisingly they all have the same problems we’re having with their ignorant right wing rabble actively rejecting democracy in favor of faux strongmen supported by Moscow, like the…

Much like the USA, a loud segment of the population has become becoming increasingly & worryingly nationalist and neo-fascist over the last ~20 years.

That kind of affection for animals in entertainment is how the US ended up with a huge starling problem.

I’d think that it also means that she admits that she had filed frivolous lawsuits in several states.

...what is the best “sporty” sedan for a young professional who wants a luxury car without the hassles?

Get the fuck outta here with this bullshit.  

I’d say Nectar is also probably my overall favorite studio album. Ghost is awfully good, though. So is Rift. Honestly, there’s not one that I really dislike. Sigma Oasis is not my favorite. There are live versions of those songs that are worlds better than what ended up on the album. The studio version of Steam really…

I like how new Volvo keys match the interior trim or leather. And the buttons on the side is a good idea.

Without power since about 1a Monday here in Dallas house is at about 34 degrees the amount of anger I have toward ALL OF IT and ALL OF EVERYONE is too hot to express cuz I need to preserve energy because I’m cold and cuddling my old dogs and had to throw all my food out all the hotels booked (and price gauging) and…

The core, fundamental purpose of society and government is to keep *everyone* safe. To keep the fire warm and the wolves at bay. Because we have found that making life better for all means that if there is a time in our lives when things are not great, we get help. Arguing against that notion is a good way to wind up…

Sure, Pants, you are 100% right: it is impossible for there to be systemic flaws designed to repress, disenfranchise or enslave some and enrich others. What is happening to Britney cannot be happening, therefore it is not! /s
