Agreed. But Samar said

Simmer down. My comment had nothing to do with this specific story.

I know my first thought whenever I see Fox News shoot themselves in the dick by horrendously botching a story to spread disinformation is that it’s ok because BOTH SIDES, AMIRITE?!?!?

I think it’s a surgical mask. He’s clearly a doctor who’s late for an operation...it’s also why he’s shifting with his feet so his hands stay sterilized.

Of course, she can afford more, she has an expensive Range Rover. The point is she wants to downgrade to something more reasonable and probably use the rest of that money for something else that brings happiness. 

Tire pressure warnings?? (Blame explorer owners for this one)

So what you’re saying is that if I put 95% down on a $200,000 house and have a 15 year loan at $75 a month, I can complain that cars are too damned expensive because the loan payment for car is a lot more expensive than my mortgage?

What???

Note - I said “well under $500". At 5 years, a $20-25k car will run you $360-480 a month.

If you can’t afford that, you have no business buying a new car. Adjust that figure for inflation, and you NEVER have had any business buying a new car.

Any new car nowadays can be expected to last 15 years or more. At $25k, that…

You can get a not beat to hell 440 six pack equipped Mope for less than the price a newer, faster, better handling, lower maintenance car?

Bitching about safety upgrades is a weird hill to die on, but you do you.

You know what though, the average price for the kind of car that was average 5-10 years ago hasn't gone up much. $20k still gets you a nicely equipped and roomy compact with decent performance and economy.  So long as I can still get an Elantra or a Civic, I don't care how many people are going crazy for the latest…

$48k can get you into most of the Lexus lineup.

$1000 a month? You don’t need to buy a luxury vehicle, for crying out loud.

There are TONS of very, very good options in the $20-25k range.  That’s in the $600-800 per month range over a short 36 months.  Go to even 5 years (still just a fraction of the expected life of any vehicle), and you’re well under $500 a month.

Especially for someone who works with Cox.

the cyclist obviously looked, saw the car slowing to allow him to go, and proceeded with the overtake.

You mean like how we can predict when a bicyclist will move around a vehicle on the side of the road?

...I’m going to need an explanation here as technically the delay our retinas have is actually worse than current PCs and we definitely don’t have future vision (maybe predictive thought is what you’re saying but we also already have that tech running in neural nets so not sure)

When I totaled my old 2000 Civic by T-boning a van that ran a stop sign, the car was stuck in gear, circling the intersection when I came to. I looked up, and tried to stop by hitting the brakes, but the brake pedal had broken off on impact. So it continued to circle until I killed the engine and it ran into a…

Automatic and Im assuming a panicked driver hitting wrong pedal.
