“I’m not like other girls” - Danica Patrick

One word: Thundercougarfalconbird.

...the airline knew that they could rearrange the flights if a bunch of people suddenly bought direct flight tickets to Charlotte.

If he had payed the higher one-way direct flight fare, would he have been on the same flight at the same time, to the same destination?

From where in CA to where in NV?

...and the first time it tried to do its sole job — shuttling sightseers high on hubris down to the site of another aquatic disaster — it caved in like a Coke can.

That dash looks absurd, but overall, I think costs were cut in the right places. It looks premium for the segment. It is a far more attractive package than most crossovers starting in the mid $20k range.

Ford Flex. I know you said he doesn’t want American, but you also said he likes the Taurus.

To my eye, this is among the best looking in the crowded compact crossover market. I have no interest in any of them, but I like what Dodge has done here.

I don’t hate this generation T-Bird. I don’t particularly like it, but I enjoy seeing them when I do.

Now might not be the best time to try to sell something that was built in a way specifically to avoid safety regulations.

In common usage, yes. In a literal interpretation, no. His premature death did not prevent his genes from being passed on. He had fathered 2 children.

Interestingly, I also give the odds to Zuckerberg, but I’d like my chances against him over my chances against Musk.

Clean and low mileage Cabrios have always sold for more than it seems like they should. While we don’t know the actual mileage of this particular example, it is exceptionally clean, and we can be reasonably confident that it’s not high mileage, and it’s of an age where condition matters more than mileage for a driver.

The GMC Motorhome. FWD was one of the big “innovations” in the design of the GMC. The absence of a driveshaft running front-to-rear allowed a lower floor, which is valuable in an RV.

That was one hell of a bidding war at the end.  Two bidders fighting it out from $5k to the eventual close at $9500.
