Can’t wait to see these in a new “Italian Job” movie!

I suspect that the part of the picture that we are missing is that there is a difference between “the average American” and “the average new car buyer”.

Weird to think about. I feel like I’m doing pretty well in life but buying a house right now and having a car note for an average priced car with an APR of 8% isn’t really doable. I make more than the average household and yet, as someone without kids, I’m not able to afford what my parents could. How do people swing

I know it’s counterintuitive because it’s a gas station, but the food at Buc-ee’s is absolutely phenomenal.  There’s such high throughput that everything is fresh, and all of the custom-prepared meals are restaurant quality.  FAR better than Starbucks food from the case.

I never have. Stock tires are a compromise that considers noise and mileage. Two things I really don’t care about. I can sacrifice some noise and mileage for traction, so I often get summer only tires and a set of Blizzaks.

I was so close to buying a GTP.  Those SC 3800's could handle quite a bit of power.  Knew a guy back in the day who had one pushing 400+hp in the back of his Fiero.

Does it have direct pipelines, or do the tanker trucks come in every 10 minutes?

It really does, pretty much the exact kind of place to have for charging stops, stop, wander, micturate, ingest, all while your car chugs down electrons on a fast charger, get enough range for another two hours or so on the freeway. Would do wonders for road trip anxiety in more rural areas.

The irony is that a buc-ees makes an even better argument as an EV charging station

I can’t hate it for some reason. 🤷‍♂️

No one in my family smokes since my dad passed.

Anything to own the libs.

I find it ironic that Ron Desantis actually “woke up” this morning

Why help your constituents when you can keep stoking destructive culture wars?

No kids, no pets and no smokers allowed in my car.

Saw this winner in the employee parking lot at Fleet Farm.

As a practical matter during the summer, you’ve needed advance reservations to do anything at Yosemite for a long time, unless you were a day-tripper willing to wait in endless lines.

That looks like it would be too safe. Here, get on my rocket ship, no one has ever made a rocket ship out of wood before. Sure it burns, but innovation usually requires the greatest risks.

And the economic benefits and lack of future losses due to climate change makes up the difference
