Try taking a long trip with a woman of a certain age and get back to me on that. I drove 4500 miles around Europe with my mother in a BMW M235i in the heat of late summer. That woman is ALWAYS cold. I am ALWAYS hot. Thank GOD for dual zone climate control, and yes, it very much makes a difference, even in a small…

Am I the only one getting auto-forwarded to the Root as the first “related” article pixel that pops up at the bottom of the article or the end of the comments. 

Ok, yeah, that’s very messed up then. If someone trades in a car as part of a deal for another car that they then do not get to keep, the dealership can’t just pocket a free car out of the deal.

It’s because in any other instance where this happens, the customer is given both their down payment and their trade in back. They sold his trade and pocketed the money when they should have given him the money they made off selling the trade.

When they say “didn’t compensate him for his trade-in” what does that mean exactly?

Why is this even a thing? How can you be approved of something and then not be approved of it later on? You just gotta start doing things on your own

the 10k on a credit card is negligent enought, this seems like an inside job

Ted is your problem and you get to keep him; we don’t want him back.

He’s really going to be mad when he gets deported and has to live out his days in Winnipeg.

Don’t forget to pair that slideshow with a half a dozen pop up ads that completely take over your phone’s screen and don’t allow you to close them out, and then you just end up having to close out chrome entirely just to get your browser to function again.

^This. The Audi A4 and VW Passat share the same platform for years. This is exactly what both Rivian and VW (Scout) need. Rivian needs help with the transition from start up to full blown production engineered manufacturer (something VW has been doing forever) and VW needs a platform for Scout.

Strip out some of the…

VW is the King of taking a platform and shifting the sheet metal just enough to create products across multiple brands. Why think that they couldn’t utilize Rivian’s underlying tech/platform and just build from the frame up?

Taylor Swift is 5'11" which is well above the average height for women.

Precisely. A lot of these really stupid demonstrations against things that are unrelated to the environment are clearly being paid for or staged.

This, flying commercial is pretty much an impossibility for someone like Swift. She is arguably one of it not the biggest star on Earth right now.

And therein lies the rub....she either attempts to fly commercial and turns every airport she enters into a stampeding, screaming shit-show, or she flies private and burns a lot of petrol.  The latter actually seems more sane, more efficient, less dangerous, and far easier for herself and staff.  Meh.

As many of the singer’s biggest fans point out, the alternative for Swift is to fly on public planes like the rest of us. However, I don’t know if you’ve seen the chaos that follows her wherever she goes, but I certainly don’t need that pandemonium when I’m passing through an airport.

I’m seeing a high number of Tesla’s with some variation of anti-Elon bumper stickers around suburban Boston. A few of my coworkers that have Tesla’s have stated theywon’t buy another one. Killing the brand equity of Tesla and his pet Twitter at record speed! 

And I imagine it hasn’t helped much in shifting that target market over to the MAGA crowd, either.

Nailed it.
