Ford’s “Premier Luxury Group” really screwed Jaguar funding and development. There was no compatible chassis for an XK or XJ, so people ended up with X-type/S-type BS.

Are you confusing a 1948-55 XK120 with a 1996-2012 XK? Unlikely to see those at a strip joint on the regular...

Disney+ charging ever increasing amounts is what is driving their overall disappointing Box Office returns. Even if a family of four were to see any of their movies, it would be a better use of money to pay for streaming services and re-watch an infinite number of times.

Ever since re-doing the wiring loom, mine has been bulletproof. Basic maintenance and prayers!!

Somehow we’re overlooking Jaguar?

You’re correct, the bumper cover design is different. The distance between the rear hatch and the ground is too low for a 60 or 90.

The greatest and most baffling issue is Musk’s insistence on changing the processes already in place at Tesla.

I can only imagine what the cost of a defined pension plan would have added. Never understood why they used that as a negotiating point given the ability to zero-out should any manufacturer undergo another re-organization.

Since I read the source article, these two quotes are the ones that should interest people...

Once prices reach a certain point they remain “sticky” and without either a recession or a disinflationary cycle, they are the new “norm”.

Cuban has invested a total of $28M of his own money with a cash out of approximately $26M, so not bad...

The source article only goes into data regarding vehicle vs (pedestrian/bike).

From the 11/20/23 CityLab article - (to supplement this articles truncated 5th paragraph)

Dice is a great example of a person who had talent, acting talent, and someone convinced him stand-up was the way to go.

Given Johnson’s change in public support (even though he wants it tied to Border Security) has more to do with the Gaetz, et. al. crowd hanging the Sword of Damocles over his head. Going from hard no last year to “Ukraine has to prevail” shows he is spineless and hostage at the same time.

I’m a week into owning a Rivian R1T after a year long wait... Quad Motor was backlogged from supply constraints. Played with it in the dirt alongside my brother’s 2022 Wrangler Limited and it held it grounds. (I babied it a little since I’m still learning how to deal with the torque curve!)

I think GM has over-promised Honda batteries and platforms... thus they are playing the high margin games due to their own system constraints.

I’ll give Waldemar a look, always wanting to learn something new...

Between Renaissance Art changing most into “like me images” and the belief that Christ drew his own depiction (Acheiropoietos or “image not made by human hands”), European Christians really are to blame for this odd narrative.

Ask them politely about Jesus’s skin tone and watch their heads explode when you point out he would have been the ONLY WHITE person in the entire Middle East. (Skin tone should be olive, akin to modern Greece if memory serves...)
