So secure that you couldn’t pay for food you needed.

Having owned two Toyota 4x4 trucks and a 4Runner of around the same age - all of which ended up on their roof or side during off-road adventures, please learn from my mistakes:  That is *way* too much weight up way too high for the suspension.

House shopping is similar - tell the realtor you are looking for a house $200-250,000 and they will show you houses that are listed at $260-320,000.

You must be young. We were all paying >10% in the 1980s even with great credit.

You are averaging too much. Most people will have one or two accidents (I’ve been driving 40+ years and have had 3 or 4 in that time that would meet their definition). But I know people who have 10, 15, 20 or more in less time behind the wheel.

True.

My dad *thought* he had done the same. But when he died (at the age of 50), the med school turned down the donation with no explanation and so we were left to scramble and make arrangements (and pay).

“We can’t stop our cops from killing people, so we are just going to ask them not to do part of their job any more”.

As an owner of a 7' tall vehicle (with the rack), I’m now very aware that the maximum height of most parking garages is 6'6" to 6'9".  I can live with it, but it takes extra planning

Soon to be used for driving to lacrosse practice and buying roofies in the nearest big cities by all the flat brim bros who currently drive F150 raptors near me.

Super reliable, super easy to fix. They’ve been everywhere in Siberia and Kamchatka for decades.

Here’s the trick for that - don’t cancel, move the reservation to 2-3 weeks out.  Then cancel a week later (but still a week in advance of the rescheduled stay)

I did the math for myself when it looked like JLR would make the PHEV engine available in the Defender (they have not in the US, yet).

Funny you should say that because I am a trouble-free owner. As are two of my best friends from college. As are many of my friends and neighbors.

The JD Power “reliability” data that rates a “stereo is difficult to use because I don’t read manuals” exactly the same as “engine seized after ten miles”?

You missed the UAZ - https://www.uaz.ru/en/cars/sgr-expedition

You should caveat that with this is true for houses built in the last 80-100 years.

Recognizing that this is an American site, but some of these are quite culture specific.

Rubio’s a communist?

Take a look at the spectrum of political organization and diversity of opinions is all the developed nations of the world. Find an equivalent to today’s GOP - Israel, Hungary, and Brazil are about the only democratic options (and I’ll use democracy loosely when considering Israel and Hungary).
