A middle-aged man describing a woman as “yummy” is just ... so weird and off-putting.

Not sure why you are being a dick. I never said it was easier to fly to Vegas than drive to Vegas. My point is that the prevalence of CA plates in Vegas parking lots is not very good evidence that most visitors to Vegas are from CA.

I have never seen anyone claim that manufacturing any vehicle was easy. It’s one of the most complex things we do manufacture.

I agree with you.  But to give Adam the benefit of the doubt, maybe he meant that the company was doing really well financially, and therefore didn’t need to increase prices.  Of course, that is a very silly way to look at a company’s financial decisions, especially a large, publicly traded company.

If you’re able to pay cash for cars (and they’re not total shitboxes), that might be why you don’t understand why a $600 car payment is a problem for many people.

Parents should be doing it.  But you should like one of those people who say that there should be no free lunch program at schools because “parents should be feeding their kids.”

Yes, the plates are all CA because people from CA drove there.  No one is driving to Vegas from the east coast or overseas, my guy.

It so annoys me that people still talk about “The Big 3" and “American cars,” as if those terms have any relevance to the US economy.

I’m not sure why you are upset that companies have marketing budgets, part of which go to bringing automotive journalists to test drive the cars.  This is not new and it’s pretty much universal.

Please don’t pay extra for this.

And we’re back to criticizing and belitting women.

Dude, I felt so old going into a mcdonalds recently.  There were 2 massive kiosks and you couldn’t order from the counter.  You couldn’t even get any behind the counter to LOOK at you when you needed something (like the food that they forgot to put in your bag).

I ate a mcnugget recently and it just like ... didn’t taste.  Like anything.  

I disagreed with most of your comment, except this part: “No, it’s not his best work, but he took the time to talk about something he likely didn’t want to talk about.”

What’s a nazi car?

The domestic car makers with increasing YOY EBITAs despite the record low sales in 2022 that were caused by component shortages?  Those domestic car makers?

Honestly have never heard of anyone talk about the black bezel or whatever makes the face ID work.  You mentioned you work in tech so maybe your colleagues and friends are a little more tech-oriented than the average cell-owning human? 

Hahaha, your comment actually restored a bit of faith in humanity for me, thanks.

The Porsche take is very “I don’t get the hype around first class seats on Asian carriers because I can only afford Spirit.”

The Oli is very cool, but isn’t it a concept car? Any automaker can create a revolutionary concept car.  It’s another thing to commercialize it.
