Yeah, I mean, the 365 HP Expedition still does 0 - 60 in like 6.5 seconds. At some point, particularly with vehicles this large, you reach a point of diminishing returns where trying to squeeze out a few more mpgs will probably sell more trucks.

Even more mind-blowing: the employees are unionized! WTF is the players union there for if not to ensure the safety of its members?!

There are old punks/hippies that own buildings in Manhattan because they squatted in them when they were derelict back in the 70's. These are the coolest people left in Manhattan.

Running a highway through downtown is always really fucking stupid. You’ll never get rid of traffic no matter how many lanes you add, we know that now. Highways should circle a city and there should be rail hubs that bring people downtown. Fuck, driving around in a city is stupid as hell too. With that much density,…

Considering “roads with cars” is incredibly vague (how many cars? how fast are they traveling?), I think the goalposts you’ve moved around all over the place are fine for now. Please try not to hit any cyclists today.

Glad to see you acknowledge that biking is better than driving.

Lance Stephenson is good and getting pissy over an uncontested layup as time runs out is bad.

Your moving the goalposts. We’re talking driving vs. biking. Biking wins.

It’s relevant because we’re talking about two options. Of those two options, biking is safer in that you are less likely to die and you will be healthier. Careful out there risk-taker!

Exercise is relevant because it shows you are less likely to die, the ultimate safety, if you ride a bike instead of driving a car. I can’t believe you’re willing to do something so risky as driving a car. You’re putting yourself and every pedestrian/cyclist at risk. Incredibly selfish.

Relevant:

“Even after adjusting for other risk factors, including leisure time physical activity, those who did not cycle to work experienced a 39 percent higher mortality rate than those who did.”

Yeah, I get x-plan pricing too. Still, not the same as the a-plan price advertised by dealers on sites like Autotrader.

Your odds of dying in a car crash are 1 in 114. Your odds of dying in a bicycling accident of any sort is 1 in 4,486. Statistics, how do they work?

Yeah, they’re fond of advertising A-plan pricing when only employees/family get that price. Of course, here in Southeast Michigan, that’s a lot of people!

Dumbass? Lol, I’m not the one that thinks it’s safer to drive than to ride, moron.

More people die driving cars than riding bikes so by your logic, everyone should stop driving. You first.

CPO Ford Flex Ecoboost. Almost as fast in a straight line as your GTI, with plenty of room for all your stuff. We have a 3-year-old and a newborn and it gets the job done with plenty of legroom for the parents.

I, too, was really excited about this when I learned of it shortly after starting work at a college out of grad school. Unfortunately, the income-based repayment program meant I would have paid it back fully in 10 years anyway. Once you take into consideration the fact that your salary will (hopefully) go up each…

The Dean of the relatively small department for which I work as a finance specialist makes close to $350k/year. I can see why a union would scare them.
