Too bad JB is given such a terrible car, he’s such a smooth driver.

Any advice for wheels that gets gray constantly from brake dust? GTI’s stock pads are very dusty.

Not sure why improving efficiency and helping the company to be more cost effective and competitive in the global market place would be “ruinous” to the existence of unions? Work safety, remuneration, injury compensation, health care, and training are all topics I can get behind a union on. Forced breaks during heat…

I agree, this is why I feel that unions in general are good, just not some of its more arcane practices.

I’m in management and have worked with United Steel Workers Union on various contract issues. The problem that I have encountered at times when negotiating is that some of their practices and demands aren’t there to help the employee nor the corporation grow/improve, but rather to keep and justify its existence. As a…

Only if it’s over 10% of your AGI though.

Clearly the “random computer pick to give up the flight” does the same trick as “random security screening pick” - they pick brown, black, and Asian people.

That’s why you hire Tom to go shopping for you. If I were looking for a non-Tesla car, I’d do the same too.

I grew up in LA, and this kind of bullshit, while rare, still happens. It’s certainly not the vicious type aimed at Latinos or blacks - not as often anyway, but it can be a rude reminder that the “model immigrant” is often left out or ignored completely when it comes to diversity and sensitivity training, because all…

I think you need to have a baby to see if your theory is true.

The Leaf is FWD, and aside from fugly it’s also way slower than this.

I had an offer for base FoST for $17.9K last year. Ended up with a GTI - just a completely different driving experience.

What’s the DSG’s time for 0-60 sprint?

If you were spending $74K (MSRP + mods here) wouldn’t that open up a world of options in terms of (some pre-owned) high performance cars?

Isn’t this similar to what many essays say about LA? By LA I mean North to Ventura, South to OC, East to San Bernadino.

How is Amtrak faster than driving?

Yes, and he looks just like Jackie Chan and Jet Li!

What about those who aren’t very interested in building lots of muscles but trying to lower stress, BP, and blood lipids? I do 1-hour high intensity cardio (~85-90% target heart rate) on a machine almost daily but it seems my body has gotten used to the workout and my weight isn’t going down anymore even with reduced…

Because they’re not white? Because they didn’t marry white people like Nikki Haley? 

Ding ding ding ding ding! I still remember how I was with my first. “You’re going to put WHAT into WHERE?!”
