I get big company bad, I really do. But what this article failed to mention, the renovation is going to cost $1.6B, GM is asking for less than 25% of that and then reinvesting future profits from it into city/state educational charities.

GM did not build the building.

what you describe is communism via price fixing, which is actually worse.  The free market is punishing these a-holes adequately already

The owner is remaining tight-lipped on that topic, and simply said “since the insurance paid for it I won’t comment on how it was driven, just that a very large pothole in our washed-out road caused all the dominoes to fall,” as per their Facebook post.

You can’t tell me this guy didn’t know this wasn’t there.

The US economy is carrying the world right now. It’s the only economy that’s not on the brink of collapse right now. Pretty much every other developed economy has been hit hard repeatedly by food and energy prices skyrocketing, foreign and domestic security issues, and general civil strife.

In all honesty, this comes back to the fundamental question: what is the point of a digital licence plate if it’s not for this sort of nonsense? It’s more expensive than stamped aluminium, requires power, can fail, and can be tampered with in an occluded manner. Who, other than people looking to commit moving…

A sad one I’m afraid. My dad’s best friend bought his son a Lotus Elise. He drove toward the end of the road on his first drive at a fair speed, a recovery truck cut the corner entering the road - they crashed and the son hit his head on the B-pillar and roof, was in a coma for 2 months before they turned off the…

No need to question whether a Cup Car could do 12 seasons. It easily could.

This is the information that most of us aren’t privy to. I assumed that a 1957 Hemi was not a big deal to anyone without a 1957 automobile.

Tesla vehicles accounted for 40 out of the 45 fatal crashes reported through October 15

I called it NP with a couple of assumptions. First is that the engine actually runs and is in good shape. A running, supercharged, injected hemi is probably worth at least half his asking price, probably more. The chassis is probably worth a few grand, at least.

“Maybe it shouldn’t be”

I think the issue I worry about is the armoring. Look at a street car tire after a while. The sidewall will have scuffs and sometimes chunks missing from stuff like curb strikes or pot holes or shovels in the road (happened to me once). The tire is still holding air and doing its job, because the manufacturer puts a…

“Why did you turn?!!”

It’s not anywhere as good looking as the old one.

The soft sprocket issues on the balance shafts only affect the early 3.5 V6 and the 5.5 V8, mostly for the 2006 and very early 2007 model years.  I voted NP-surely it’s got another 100K miles left in it for $6k.

I am proud to admit I have no idea what Slack even is. I gather from reading the article that it’s some kind of messaging service. I don’t need to know anything more.

And my Prius will beat that Motorcycle

C’mon. What you said is topical, but it sure ain’t right.
