I’m not into this class of vehicle at all, but if I were this would be high on the list. It’s a looker... no idiotic kicked up rear windows to block vision deserves some kind of design award. It’s kind of like a Range Rover, but fresher. And I’d love to see those taillights on a sedan or coupe.

3rd gear - Idiotic, like there is only one suitable location for the damn plant and it has to take out good soil. Jobs won’t matter if there’s no food. Plus, as always, companies always over-promise jobs to get their tax breaks, then lean heavily on automation later. Does Ford ever sound any of this shit out with…

Easy, Tesla will send them a poop emoji and consider the matter closed.

Jeep - It’s not so much hating the Wrangler, but it’s hating the hot heads that buy them these days, then drive them like they are high-performance sports cars.

Shäfer: We’ve got to cut costs!!!! My mega-million euro bonus might decrease .5% next year!!!

The fact that AA is charging such radically different rates to go from point A to point B for the same type of seat for different passengers is proof the airlines aren’t regulated nearly enough.

Well, it isn’t like just a single car bricked itself, nor it’s only happened once. We kind of have a pattern going on at this point.

1st - Fresh off a decade of rampant corruption, threatening strikes before even proving the house is cleaned up yet isn’t a particularly good look.

No windshield wipers? Even for someone that might think this BS is a good idea (not me), who the hell wants to ride around in a car you can’t see out of?

Not to mention pedestrians or anyone on a bike or motorcycle. It also seems the larger the vehicle, the more of a fuck-it attitude the driver has about the speed limit, too. I mean, if you’re on this site, you probably like to go fast, but over 90 in a 65 in congested city traffic? Holy hell.

Yes, to a Ford car again, no to a Zombie VW with a Ford badge on it.

Good. Flygskam needs to be joined by Cruiseskam, SUVskam, and Truckskam.

Utilities need to be utilities again, not corporate profit centers. Thanks to dirty backroom political dealing, our state just approved a 30% boost for a system held together with duct tape and bailing wire. 

Off topic, but is Rolls just punching up the colors on all the PR photos, or is the website just set to so dark and broody so you can’t really see the vibrancy? Even on the daylight setting it looks like a few minutes past sunset.

Oh God, and imagine the passengers that unknowing stored items under the seat, then smeared it on themselves and their hotel beds afterwards, trying to figure out where that damned smell was coming from.

Makes snakes on a plane sound not so bad.

I know that swept away feeling, but it’s always been on a new one.

They can’t control the interest rates, but otherwise you nailed it. I think EV prices could tumble if companies weren’t throwing money hand over fist towards trying to figure out self-driving at the same time. Integrated safety systems great, self-driving? Who’s clamoring for that?

I would say at least in Ford’s case, it’s Ford garbage dealer allocation system. Locally you won’t even see a Mach-E on the lot and everything that arrives is already spoken for. The only one I’ve been able to see in person (not driving) at the dealer was one on the showroom floor waiting for the delivery appointment…

Joke value? Like when I used to refer to my 3-door 2012 Golf TDI as my exotic red German sports car.
