Knock on wood I’ve only been hit and run twice. Minimal damage. But now I don’t leave the house even on my bike without front and rear cameras. As a cyclist the new garmin Varia radar/light/camera is a game changer. 

Yup, I agree with all of this.. Also I think a lot of people dont fully understand what it takes to succeed in a competitive/capacity limited market.

That’s not to say that the market wont become competitive once again, as supply nears demand....

SLPT.... get a 110 single burner, and run that still under your desk at work to save on electricity at home.

Have all new tools or parts shipped to the office, in order to avoid interrogation at home. 

No. If you get a refund, that means you overpaid your taxes that year.

Especially for the pricing.

the right and left suspension spring steel wasnt cut from the exact same stock, so it was  little off.

280 in the SF bay area moves at 85mph for majority of the day... even the slow lane usually moves north of 70.

I was an idiot with my first car... I saved up and bought a 2012 ford focus hatchback with the 5-speed in late 2011 new off the lot. it had 150 ponies, and yes, I did hit the governor (120mph btw), at 3am on an empty highway.... I also drove that thing like an idiot, but im thankful that was the car i did my stupid…

its within 1mpg of the corolla cross... i think with the size, its just inevitable.

Plugin Hybrid is considered a ZEV

It needs to be noted that PHEV’s are ZEV.

the other part to this issue though is that the Texas gas tax has been $0.20 since 1991... They should probably adjust that for inflation... which would be roughly $0.40/gallon

LOL. I just stopped watering the lawn, and I only pushed the lawnmower around my yard ONCE last year.

If I had to guess, this may just be another compliance car for them to get their average MPG down.

I love fixing shit. And I love buying new tools.

Is your engine some of that Nature made Dino or synthetic? I usually do my Dino cars annually. - otherwise I can’t keep track of what year I did it, and I rarely drive any of my cars car more than 1000 miles a year.

Mitsubishi is feeling left out by this comment. 

agree. not to mention that if im ever in a position where I would absolutely need to use it, i dont trust that the cars ahead and behind me wont tap my bumper on the way out.
