I can’t wait for my local Hyundai dealer to try hawking this thing for $12k over MSRP.

Can someone help me understand how the kid put the car in the pool in that orientation if he accidentally had the car in reverse? The car is facing away from the fence it drove over, and there doesn’t appear to be enough room to spin it around before putting it in the water, so I think the “accidentally reversed”…

I think when we think about how long it will take for the market to stabilize we need to remember that there were huge demand distortions from large lump sum stimulus payments. While they helped keep some families afloat, there were a lot of folks that received them even though they were still working normally who…

One of the most effective ways to save money at the pump is to move an active, unattended pump handle to your own tank while the owner of the car is away.

Well, minor correction, after that information first came out, Toyota defended their contributions saying they were based on the auto-industry positions of lawmakers. They only decided to cut donations to republicans who voted against certifying the election after people started making a stink about it in the media.…

I recommend waiting for the repossessed vehicles.

They should copy Albanese and make those laxative gummies.

Why should these people get pensions when everyone else gets 401ks. Enroll these people in a 401k and stop giving people that retire early to get out of trouble a full ride through retirement. 

It’s not even just those who died that are not participating in the workforce either. Covid also left a lot of people with debilitating, apparently long-term health issues as well. It’s always irked me that so many covid-hoaxers focus exclusively on the mortality rate when death is just one of a range of negative…

I think a lot of families learned that if they’re not paying for child care they can get by on a single income. I know of several people in situations where one spouse makes up the bulk of the family income, while the jobs they were working brought in barely more than the cost of child care, so they’ve just decided to…

Dementia can make you look like that. Since all things Republican are about projecting their insecurities, it’s safe to say that the sleepy joe/dementia story about Biden is actually a sad admission that Trump is sundowning everyday.

This is apropos of nothing, but I test drove a new GMC Sierra last week and got stranded on the side of the road because it ran out of gas while the gauge was reading a quarter tank/90 miles of range. Modern vehicles have so many components that have to be exactly right for the vehicle to function, it’s inevitable…

I find it interesting that they say that Volvo has a more credible plan for producing electric vehicles than Ford, when Ford already has one mass-market electric vehicle already on the lots and an electric truck that’s been demonstrated. Ford has an ambitious plan, and they’re already achieving it.

I’ll be a first time truck buyer sometime this summer, and even though big-3 truck people and reviewers universally seem to hate them, I actually like the Nissan Titan for this reason. It’s smaller in most dimensions than pretty much every other “full-size” on the market, and it just seems more practical for every day…

Even in cities like Dallas/Ft. Worth that are designed around traveling by car, this funneling of people into central areas still happens because of the rigid zoning in most cities. You still have commercial districts in the suburbs where all the retail and entertainment is located, with all the houses outside of…

My first gen Ford Edge had this feature as part of its otherwise warcrime known as SYNC. It worked for terrestrial radio and Sirius, although it only worked while the car was on.

Now that the stimulus money is petering out, I would bet that the used car market is repopulated at least a little by repossessed vehicles in a few months.

I have been through this area many times, and the stretch where this happened was recently redone with weirdly narrow shoulders because they were fitting updates into the existing footprint. I can see why she would want to find a safer place to stop. It’s basically like having the cop put his lights on while you are…

This situation is even worse in Arkansas because a few years ago there was a some whack job “blue light rapist” using police lights to pull over women and rape them. It’s part of why the driver manual there says what it does, because it was plastered everywhere that if you, and particularly for women, don’t feel safe…

Who could have ever foreseen this completely obvious future for Lordstown Motors.
