It’s not short-sighted if your goal is to cut the budget which will allow you to cut taxes - primarily for the wealthy - and continue to funnel money upwards into the coffers of the ever-richer and more-powerful. These kinds of things usually end poorly for those at the top, but they live like kings until the…

Audi TT and a Miata? Did everyone miss the fact that it needs to hold 2 adults and 2 kids?

Stop it. There are ways to instill responsibility and ownership without making your kid save up and get an unreliable, unsafe shitbox.

I’ve never understood this arguement, want know why? Lets use a coal plant as an example, they are told to clean up their emissions, probably by installing a scrubber system in the exhaust. Well someone has to design and build that scrubber (jobs created) someone has to install those scrubbers (jobs created) and…

I work in a business that is highly regulated by the EPA. Our products are governed by an act colloquially called FIFRA. The Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act sets up the basic U.S. system of pesticide regulation to protect applicators, consumers, and the environment. I do have some issues with how…

What the fuck does the EPA have to do with crashworthiness?

Short term profits for long term obsolescence. That’s the standard MO of the Republican party.

That’s what I’m wondering.

Cutting the EPA to “save” the auto industry is like cutting back the police to improve your neighborhood.

Making cars cheaper only means the savings get passed on to the company execs, not the consumer. They will still price their deregulated, less safe, less reliable and less efficient cars according to their competition like they do now. You aren’t going to get a car as good as a comparable Toyota or Honda model for…

I mean... I like the visibility and the look of my old car, but I know I’m driving around in a death trap that will kill me six different ways if I get into a moderately bad accident.

The gas tax is 18.5 cents a gallon. If corrected for inflation, it would be about 30 cents. If we want to fix bridges and overpasses and highways and add some nice stuff and fund working transit it should be twice that. Even a penny more has Republicans freaking out, even though gas was multiples of that a few years…

Make Americans Dead Again?

No, we don’t want that, actually because we remember this:

Yeah, safety regs. Who needs those pesky things? I love the flavor of A-Pillar in the morning. It tastes like, injury.

Nothing. Hes talking about nothing and this means nothing. Hes speaking to his base specifically so they can eat it up. Stuff like this makes him seem presidential to them but he really isn’t. This is like your shitty boss saying “ we’re going to start a committee to review your lunch breaks so you can get what you…

Hands down one of the worst rental car experiences I’ve ever had. I cannot overstate just how awful that 9 speed transmission it. It shifts constantly, and somehow never seems to do it smoothly.

Shouldn’t the real question be:

This car is a piece of junk, so - no - no one should be giving anyone a thumbs-up for lighting one’s money on fire. The only excuse for buying this car is having bad credit and the need for AWD.

Classic.... cool... that other two words I don’t get... you need a Buick Riviera. Something big enough, classy enough, California engine, GREAT.

Something like this one.
