Alright, here’s the deal because I’m sick of this manual transmission death discussion:

I knew I screwed it up. Just knew it, but didn’t bother to check.

Could it be that stock vehicles aren’t designed to be jumped? It’s still a 5,500-6,000lb vehicle that wasn’t ever intended to leave the ground. Also, who knows how much this moron has abused this thing in the past, or how many miles are on it...and it’s not “new” regardless of whatever misleading title you put on it,…

RAM: Real Amatuer Mistake.

Seems pretty weak to me to be honest. When I was a young, dumb kid I had a ‘94 Thunderbird and a stretch of road with plenty of peaks sufficient to catch some air, and in my young, dumb kidness, I took advantage of that many times without breaking anything on the car once. “Ram tough” my ass.

I bet the extra weight from the hideously tacky cammo seat covers may have overloaded the suspension causing it to snap...

in 50 years or so, someone will come across a barn. in it there will be 2017 supra with automatic and 1998 honda accord with stick.

The #1 reason we hear for not leasing is “I never own the car.” Yet they’ll happily trade cars in every 3-4 years for decades and never pay a single one off, meaning they never own those either.

And as soon as Education gets half the money Defense gets.

But will this mindset ever change?

Yes, I’ve never seen a Democrat driving a car they can’t afford, wearing clothes they can’t afford, or talking on a phone they can’t afford.

If you asked the typical Trump voter to convert 5 out of 25 to a percentage, I bet not even a third of them could do the math in their heads. So sign up for EZ payments for 7 years on some clunker? No surprise here--pure Trumpism on display.

You voluntarily abstaining isn’t the same as forcing everyone at the point if a gun to abstain.

I don’t drink, smoke, or do any drugs (weed is legal here) and I’d never advocate you do so either.

Best program to improve the lives of Americans I can think off: (1) prohibition (alcohol and weed) and (2) strip every poor person of their car and issue every person who makes less than $30,000 per year at 10-year-old Toyota Camry.

Or, just the car thing. Whatever.

WOW Pull your head out of your ass. You probably think that saving the environment is a hoax as well.

So I’ve seen those Costco ones and I’m not a fan - they don’t dim enough before going out. That said, the Sylvania ones I really like are cheaper than dimmable CFLs, have a nicer temp to the light, and are actually are only a hair more expensive than traditional incandescent when on sale.

I was no fan of Bush, but I do…

Neutral: The “environment” is quickly becoming like “safety” in terms of consumer expectations. That is, in recent decades you had to seek it out especially (like buying a Volvo or Mercedes in the 80s), but now it’s everywhere. A combination of market forces and regulations have done this, and it’s generally a good…

My favorite part of the commercial, which makes the Chevy Equniox seem like a great young person car is the very end where it says:

Just remember. Some ad agency made a boatload selling this pile to Chevy. Wow. But then again, we elected...oh, never mind.
