3rd Gear: Wait, I thought we are supposed to be throwing our batteries into the ocean. Is this not a thing anymore?

I feel like this is more accurately called a furlough. But layoffs get more clicks. 

Tom, you are a gentleman and a scholar. I agree with everything you’ve ever written... until this. Based on all the pictures at the bottom, and approximately 15 seconds of image searching, you are clearly missing the 3rd rule of a proper wagon. To maintain the proper wagon look, the rear/third window must extent at…

Agreed! (Hops onto Robinhood to buy Put options...)

I came to say the same thing. Just because it can be configured on the website doesn’t mean it’s being built and/or distributed.

Insert side eye meme/emoji. Want to hear something wild? Where I live, Alabama, the minimum wage is $7.25, and has been since 2009. 

I’m in Alabama. It’s an additional $200 for EV and $100 for Hybrids to register every year. We just picked up a 2023 Prius Monday. Savings still far outweigh the added cost, but seems a little backwards. 

I LOVE Fiats. I’ve owned 3 different modern models (500 Sport, 500 Abarth, and 500L) I also LOVE EV’s. Great to drive, and easy to charge when you have home charging available. BUT... the value proposition just isn’t there for me on the Fiat EV’s. The market already has many alternatives in the price range with…

All I know is that I want the one from the Barbie movie...

What you’re describing is a Chevy Bolt. It’s a genuine shame they killed it off already. 

When we upgraded from a 1 dog to a 2 dog family I went from a Fiat 500 Abarth, to a Fiat 500L. Extra set of doors and way more room. plus I was able to keep the 6 speed manual for the fun factor. Now I drive a Q7 TDI, but that’s mostly because we upgraded to be a two boat family.

Wait, how long has Mercedes/Maybach had a partnership with Buick?

We’re also childless, and my daily driver is an Audi Q7. The third row has been used exactly 3 times in the last 4 years. In fact, most of the time all the rear seats are folded down with a blanket over the top to transport our big dogs around. I chose the Q7 because of the creature comforts, ability to seat 7 in a…

I’m in a similar boat, where the red state I live in isn’t focusing on encouraging more charging stations. I’ll stick to hybrids for now and enjoy the great economy combined with the ability to fill up in under 5 minutes. I did see a Tesla charging at my local Buc-ee’s and had to do a double take. Forward progress, i…

Toyota currently makes 14 different hybrids. You don’t need to get the Prius anymore. Choose another model.

I bought a car from them, with a trade on the same transaction and it was a wonderful experience. They brought the car to my house to test drive while they confirmed the condition of my trade, then signed the paperwork in my driveway while they loaded up my trade and took it away. So much better than a traditional…

Chevy Lumina. Full Stop.

I drove a modern (2012) Fiat 500 (the small two door one that I don’t think is available anymore) for years! I regularly drove with 4 people in the car and it’s incredible what can fit inside. I have a bunch of pictures of moving things around because it was always so comical. Thirteen big bags of mulch? No problem.…

I have fond memories of my old Saab. That was a long time ago now.
