IDK about the V6 Camry, but my 2.0 turbo (10-speed auto) Accord is a rocket. Can’t imagine the Camry is much slower (if at all). IDK if you’ve driven an up-engined mid-sized sedan lately, but they’re pretty damn fast if you mash the go-pedal.

My response to a brand new diesel CUV in 2020:

Edit: holy shit I hate when I only notice a post is old as fuck after I make a response.

Nice car, but CP price (but not by much).

Any comment that mentions Radwood just instantly annoys me. Like, if the only thing that makes you think a car is worth the price is “ooh it could win some shit at Radwood!”, then is the car actually worth that?

Sooooooooooo. . .

That’s drafting, baby.  Works better with speed holes, though.

Crosstreks are tiny and I really don’t understand the point of them.  Just buy a Forester.

Indeed, a coworker just bought a Challenger GT AWD last year. He’s a salesman that drives a lot in the upper midwest. I couldn’t really find fault in his choice except that it’s a Chrysler product.

And even then, instead of adding depth to Poe, they regressed him as a character. Made him into a childish moron for some reason.

I particularly like this bit:

Thank you, holy shit.

no you fuck him.

Indeed. Sorry, woke activists, but despite how much you love the actress, the Rose Tico character suuuuuucked. And “subverting expectations” and adding new and useless characters just for the sake of it is not good storytelling.

Yeah those things are notorious.

Yes! I don’t collect toy cars myself, but I do appreciate the appeal of it. And I think you’ll find a decent amount of overlap with Jalops and people who have a casual interest in Hot Wheels (and the like) and model cars.

Indeed, it is a fucking ridiculous argument. I learned some C, C++, and Basic in high school and college, but I’ll be damned if I actually WANT to do it. I didn’t enjoy it at all, and I was even pretty decent at it.  It’s a whole other skill set that for this purpose actually requires quite a bit more than simply…

when I was a poor college student, I used to do just this.  Split two dogs and put them between two slices of wheat bread.  So yeah, he’s right.  One isn’t enough for an actual sandwich.

Eh, it has its place for feeding kids.  Just think of it as cheese-flavored salt, I guess.  I grew up on the stuff and still don’t mind it, but I would choose the real thing every time if the choice is available.
