Why are you trying to keep the miles off of an Xterra?

Some men just want to watch it burn.

20 degrees and sleeting, my Comanche blows the impossible to reach freeze plug on a Jeep 4.0 and pull over in a cloud of burnt coolant.

You’re completely right and I think the real truth is there is no perfection solution nor is there a simple answer. No country has it completely figured out and the US has a real problem, regardless of which party is in control of our government.  

Your argument is weakened by the unnecessary name calling.

False. They will ask if you have insurance but hospitals are not allowed to deny service-even if you can’t pay for it. It’s called indigent care.

Uhhh.. there is competition in health insurance and it is like car insurance. Unless you mean you’re locked in to the carrier provided by your employer. In the private insurance market, there are lots of options for high deductible insurance plans that only cover the big incidents. To your last point, you can always…

Right. I’ll take my insurance premiums over your 39% tax rate.  

Have you ever tried to use the healthcare system in France? I had some issues while travelling for work (which provided health care coverage equivalent-actually better- to that of a local) and it was shitshow. And it doesn’t matter how much money you try to throw at it, you get the same care as a homeless guy and good…

also rubicon weighs more due to the added equipment which reduces payload.

All this talk of suits. Only the poor bloke in front, who is busy getting his macro shots of lugnuts, is even wearing one.

I expect that the cost of personal insurance to be a significant lever in the total monthly cost. Also, car insurance premiums swing pretty wildly from state to state, excluding the risk profiles of individuals.

The shadow under the bus in the lead photo made my eyes briefly interpret that it was a hover bus. It was, therefore, a let down to see that these wishes be wasted on pipe dream fuel cells. 

I predict the larger robot will whoop up on the smaller robot. Then, when it looks like it’s all over for the smaller robot, 4 other robot allies, who have curiously been waiting on the sidelines until now, will show up and connect with the first robot to make a much larger robot.

price?

I take it that you really enjoyed the Granturismo over the weekend.

I think that one has the F1 tranny out of the 599. Best to stick to the base coupe with the ZF box.

Somewhat of a tangent question: With the other guy’s CL post regarding the maintenance hell of his F1 style Maser, how bad of an idea is it to consider a well depreciated 2008-2009 model with the standard ZF box? Is it much worse than a BMW? They are surprisingly affordable and still look modern.

what about a hellcat charger with steelies and SXT badges?

and an “I”!
