“...send a work email with a typo in it. The person receiving it wouldn’t know they’d done it on purpose, so it would still read as an error.”

Yep. I do respect content creators and desire to pay them for their work. But I do not respect those that decide people in different parts of the world should be treated differently. See also: DVD region codes.

How many surround trims does one fog light really need?

Genesis all the way.
The GTI is a fantastic all-rounder. It’s a great way to buy the utility you need to be practical and still have some fun.
But if you’re considering the Genesis, it presumably has the utility you need. It’s also much more unique, both out in the world and in your own automotive resume. And it’s…

It’s true. Chrome can make almost anything look worse.

1. But neither of the ways to merge you describe is a zipper, which is what’s being discussed here.
2. Merging at the end of the closing lane does not cause a slowdown in the average flow of traffic. The choked flow point for traffic should be, and in my observation usually is, slightly after the final narrowing of…

Now this I agree with. If you’re crossing a solid painted line, you’re doing it wrong.

“DEMAND you let them zipper merge (after they’ve driven way past where the merge should be) in a ‘This lane ends’ scenario”

“That means your ear canal is free to listen to the sounds around you.”

“That means your ear canal is free to listen to the sounds around you.”

What we know:
1. Low revving engine, presumably diesel.
2. Automatic transmission.
3. Operator that’s unable to keep it between the lines.

Agreed. Way too much work to be worth it.
But there is a middle option available. I always write my total on the customer copy of the receipt and take it. Then the first recycle bin I walk by gets that receipt put in it. To the person working the cashier, I look like somebody that’s taking his receipts home to follow…

“But let’s be honest—most of this doesn’t matter to your average person, because your average person is going to warm his or her car up anyway.”

This is so interesting. Because I’ve been driving around in VW diesels since 2013, and it’s never happened to me. I’d heard stories of it, so I was even ready! But nope. Not once in 6 years. I don’t think my wife has ever encountered it either. And we’ve lived in multiple regions of the country in that time too.

“cap exemptions at $3.5 million”

As you said, convenience is a hell of a drug. Personally my current situation is such that I’m quite willing to pay for that convenience. Not that money is in endless supply either, but right now it’s easier to spend more money than it is to spend more time.
So, how about an alternative way to help the situation?…

This “wagon” claim seems a bit dubious; it looks an awful lot like a crossovery thing. But wagons aren’t about looks. They’re about function. (I don’t subscribe to Torch’s criteria as definitive, obviously.) Is there room to sleep in the back if you fold the rear seats down? Is there enough space for a large dog plus…

Why should you have an alignment? Because if you’re driving a Miata, you probably care about driving feel. Here’s the lesson my Miata helped me learn:

“I like merging into traffic at a pace that won’t cause others problems”

Those responses are the usual for very good reason (well some of them anyway). Because some of us remember the reasonably-sized, go-anywhere, do-anything trucks of 20-30 years ago. I still drive mine. So if they offer something that’s:
1. Smaller than the new Ranger
2. ~1 ton payload
3. 4WD with low range
4. Manual…

I solved this with heavier bowls for one pet and placing the bowls up on a small table for the other. A virtual wall (or similar) would also work.
