Interesting, thank you

This was such a great read, thanks!

Sometimes you have to suffer for the greater good. Me having something interesting to watch on a Sunday is the greater good.

It’s been in everything from late models to Can-Am prototypes and still sees use today. Pretty impressive resume for an pushrod iron block.

OP’s attitude is why November will go red.

It’s not just $5.50 gas. It’s everything else going up along with it.

If they can’t afford new stuff, then they better figure out who is who and fucking vote. Vote!!

The days of 3% interest car loans are fucking over.

Using public funds to provide charging is not solely what the bill is. It also mentions privately owned places too which is totally ridiculous. If a hotel, store or restaurant wants to provide free or subsidized charging to its guests and patrons on private land, that is none of the GOP’s business. This is a huge…

We’ve been due for a correction of some sort. Gas can’t stay “cheap” (~2-3/gallon) forever. I can’t believe people just kept buying all the cars and SUVs as if gas was going to be the same price as milk for the next 10 years.

Well, there’s the Nissan Leaf, for environmentally-conscious frugal people, but I agree with you. We, the taxpayers, already paid for a big tax credit for EV buyers, the gas tax pays for road maintenance (or whatever the .gov diverts those funds too) but EV’ers don’t pay that, and now we have to give them free “fuel”…

My 05 Mustang GT convertible still gets comments from people when I’m out and about which is amazing considering it’s old enough to drive itself. It really is a classic look. Heck of fun drive too.

My take is that the race is 70 laps, and Power’s team did the fastest 70 laps. It’s not a 71 lap race. Power and Penske played it perfectly (and he also had ~45 seconds of PTP on tap whereas Rossi had blown it out by the end of the race)

I have a friend who works at a Stellantis dealer and has people signing on for loans well in excess of your quoted 8% on Challengers, Chargers, and Jeeps. 

Nobody with a median income is buying a median priced new car. That is not how it works. Not many people of merely median income are buying new cars *period*.

Hell, the 70's was 13%. I know, as my Dad tells me all the time.

Well the Roadster and Cybertruck just launched, so they should be good on engineers for a while....

This. Starting around 2014-2015 we should have been slowly increasing the interest rates so we had some way to combat a recession. 

I’m amused you think people are smart enough to avoid loans with terms like that. 

No one with any fiscal sense at all is going to be entering a 72 month loan at 8% interest on a car that nearly matches their annual income in price.
