There absolutely needs to be more basic life education like this in schools.

4,000 will buy you a perfectly suitable used commuter car. You don’t need a big fancy truck when your trying to get back on your feet. Sounds like the cycle just repeats itself.

“It may seem easy to write Woodrum off as ignorant of finance, or budgeting, or the car buying process.” That nonetheless doesn’t change the reality that he is.

You either accept the front mid-engine layout or you go old school and deny the theory of the mid-engine layout all together and every car is either front-engined or rear-engined.

A Chinese car made right in the middle of the cultural revolution is something that I would never, ever, ever, ever want to actually drive. Like, if I want to kill myself, there are a lot better ways than by driving a car designed by people who actively had to not know what they were doing in order to avoid…

Yes, it was in Sunnyvale, California. Not Florida.

You are correct, sir. Cloth seats from a 200-series Volvo are almost permanent. The seat heat elements may not function, but the seats are both intact and remain comfortable. Leather? Not so much.

I am not a fan of leather seats. Good cloth lasts forever. Bad cloth lasts about as long as decent leather. There are other reasons.

In the interests of accuracy and honesty, OJ was charged with and convicted of:

There’s a reason we HAVE to have laws that specifically state to not steal and kill. And that’s because people.

The lesson here is don’t piss off Ayn Rand fans.

This whole story was so blatantly ridiculous that I was surprised it wasn’t an email forward from my mother

I know, right! The airlines should let checked bags go for free and charge for the use of the overhead compartments.

I am a 100% believer in climate change but I don’t see a goddamn thing anywhere that actually makes a plausible connection between this and climate change. Pheonix is universally acknowledged as the hottest major population center in the US. The fact of the matter is there’s a shitload more pavement, of different…

Last month I flew out of Minneapolis and their body scanners apparently weren’t working, which meant we all went through the metal detector only and didn’t have to waste time doing stupid shit like taking off our shoes and belts. It was glorious. And amazingly, nobody died and no planes were hijacked!

Casting people to play other real people just because they look like them doesn’t make the movie good. If they’re a good enough actor they’ll convince you despite the looks.

It drives me nuts that every time I rent a car all they have is SUV’s.

It’s more the fact that people have been numbed to aesthetics. They’re told something looks good, it supposedly looks good. How else would we get things like skinny jeans that nobody looks good in? Or the new Prius, which looks like some glitched car from GTA V? Clean aesthetic design has been pushed to the wayside as…

It’s always hilarious when they claim their model is to consumer’s financial benefit and in the same breath demand any competing systems be shut down. Surely, if what they are saying was true the dissatisfied consumers would abandon Tesla in droves, flocking back to the clearly superior dealer model and the problem…

Yes, it’s still a thing, because it works.
