100% this. Somebody was doing the dance where a car that actually lives in MA (with inspections) is registered in NH (no inspections), and they finally got caught. And 300K miles in New England means it won’t pass MA inspection anymore. (Even though if you go to a “lick ‘em stick ‘em” place, as my dad called them, you…

New Hampshire? Car’s been up for sale for a couple of weeks, even though it’s offered at a pittance and promises to run perfectly?

To be fair, I would have done the same thing the beach goers did, and get the hell out of there. I don’t have much experience in yacht beaching 🤷‍♂️

Fuck that, if you are driving drunk and hit people it is attempted murder.

Damn. Harry Potter fell on hard times.

I was fascinated by the Corvair’s story as a kid, going so far as to write General Motors about it. I still have the letter I got in response, which the GM PR person who wrote it started with “The Corvair was a safe car.”

Well my Spidey sense is tingling....

Exactly. the article states the cybertruck is ‘nearly 8 ft wide’, but that is for the mirrors. The Cyber truck is 80" wide (as in 6 2/3 ft wide) , 95" with mirrors.

146 in a Neon sounds terrifying.

Look I mean the cybertruck is big, but I suspect not bigger, or that much bigger than other full sized truck, so it’s likely that these parking spots are too small for any full sized truck.

My guess would be that he does have LEO friends who are happy to just not ticket him for this, but officially claiming they shut down a road for a private citizen to speed around recklessly on is too far for them to go without drawing the ire of real criticism and discipline. He was probably hoping they would back his…

Mark Cross interior (no rich Corinthian leather for me? - Khan), Cartier crystal, maintenance records out the wazoo; sign me up. Okay, not really. I’m a geezer who grew up around cars through out the 60s, 70s, 80s. These were dark days (excepting the muscle car era). I have no attachment to these examples no matter…

I like this wagon a lot. Given its shape and how it hasn’t accumulated that many miles for its age are more pluses. When it needs parts, I’ll bet they won’t destroy your credit card like trying to keep an older Germanmobile on the road.

Assuming I can knock another couple hundred off the price, I’d say NP. Replace or fix the tail light, slap a set of cheap new tires on and put in some sweat equity to clean the car up a bit and drive it all summer. Sell it in August hopefully for near the same price I’ve paid + put into it.

There is a difference between buying a Congress critter and buying 1/7th of a whole branch of government of the most powerful nation on earth with a fucking R/V.

Pretty sure that’s chump change compared to what he’s getting under the table from his right-wing sponsors.

To be fair, in the eyes of Republicans, removing a staunch GOP justice and burning to country to the ground are the exact same thing.

Way high, especially the truck portion even though a nice combo. Sounds like one of those, “I put it up for sale honey, but had no takers.” You’d never get my wife in one of those - $70k buys a lot of nice hotel rooms.

Elon has gone full Trump Steaks, Trump Vodka, Trump University, etc. The grift never ends because there’s a sucker born every minute.

Also, the bells were ringing before he pulled onto the tracks, even though the arms were still up. There was no reason to continue to move forward, other than this driver is a complete idiot who should never drive anything ever again.
