I think some asterisks that showed the rate of inflation or a table of “in current USD” would be helpful here. $1.56 in 2003 is $2.11 today. So your $9.25 figure for the 2003 F-150 cost/100 miles is $13.21 vs. the $13.80 you’re paying today.

People will do stupid shit no matter what you call it.

your example is very suspicious and stinks of personal gripe.

Remember these tariffs are not negotiated individually, there would be something like- okay we agree to that 25% on cars if we get 4% on inflatable companion dolls- when market situations change it is time to re-examine the percentages, the big issue is the unilateral application

When I grew up, life seemed simpler. Kids didn’t have all these distractions. Now, there’s so much more competition, so much more peer pressure. The suicide rate is just out of control. Bullying is out of control.

I’m so glad I unloaded my Ford stock soon after Fields took over. I knew once an insider was back at the wheel, things would go awry.

Real quick I kind of liked Field’s vision of not having Ford trying to be the biggest against things like VAG. It seemed a good corporate strategy to accept their place at near the top, but not quite there. But then again I’m not a “corporate” mind.

Another season like this.... I have all the sads :(

the engine will only last 31,000 miles.

It is the show of defiance against Putin many NATO allies have been waiting for from the Trump administration. {...}

I had a customer come in to buy an H2 as a tow rig for his toy trailer. He arrived in a yellow 550 with his son (about 11- or 12-year-old)

General strike. Shut EVERYTHING down. We cannot let this go any further. Everyone in the streets. See you there!

CBP officials at Dulles airport are reportedly still refusing access to lawyers for people being detained, including green-card holders. They won’t let the lawyers talk to anyone, and they’ve even ignored calls from local lawmakers.

Have to say, the RAM driver did a great job getting his truck slid into just the right position.

<irrelevant rant that will annoy a lot of people>

Sometimes, not often, but sometimes, deep down, where it’s dark and wet, I sort of miss active duty. A little. Not much, but a little. I mean, it was exhausting, boring, and sometimes frightening as hell. But we did amazing, impossible, ridiculously dangerous shit virtually all of the time. Now I sit in a cube. I go…

Someone more knowledgeable than me please answer this question:

Not to be confused with the Moose Roll. The preferred maiting position of the Volvo V70XC.

Like father like son

Too much front brake bias would lock front wheels first, not lift the rear tires off the ground. Any racer can tell you that. This is a weight distribution problem only.
