I was at a bar that put out pitchers of water, with slices of lemons and limes floating on them, and plastic cups, at the end of the bar.
Some idiot walks up, sticker her hand in the water pitcher and grabs a slice of fruit. And looks at me and giggles.
Then looked super butthurt when I told her she was an idiot with

The weather forecast says it will rain. We know that’ll mean no F-35s, and likely no Blue Angels.
Enough rain and the trucks carrying those tanks won’t be able to roll on to the dirt/grass to offload them, as the weight would mean the trucks get stuck in the mud.
I smell fiasco.

The Sherman tanks are the new stealth version. They’re invisible!

Are you familiar with Henry Ford’s anti-semitism and admiration for Hitler? Hitler gave him a medal.

Also, I’m disgusted by anyone pulling a gun when there is no threat of death or great bodily harm. Now there is a chance that there was such a threat here. Separate from the issue of this ridiculously inappropriate charge.

American law has the concept of “fighting words” that essentially says you’re waiving your self defense claim by inviting someone to take a swing. Beyond that, its why we have juries, to make findings of fact.
My problem here is not determining the facts, its that they are using the circumstances to make a ridiculous

One of the Mission Impossible movies, Tom Cruise is on a Ducati that suddenly has semi-knobby tires, then suddenly has street tires again.

Faster than an RS7, fun, reliable-ish.....

Everyone should avoid getting in to a fight, and if you start one, you should get charged for that.

The Mercedes E-class cabriolet comes in AWD (“4matic”). Pretty sure you can get the A3 vert with it, and the TT always has. The current BMW 2 series cabriolet has it and I think there’s always been a two door convertible X-drive option somewhere in the lineup.

I wouldn’t go the fumigation route - the foam in the seats might absorb enough poisonous stuff to remain dangerous.
What about going to a body shop and baking it in their paint booth? Although insects are hardy things, might be good to research that, but I would think a couple of hours at a couple of hundred degrees

The perfect entry-level supercar. On a $100K budget you can buy this and pick up a Crown Vic at county auction for your DD

Putting on my economist hat: buying a used manual boosts the market value of used manuals, which boosts residual values, which lowers the capital cost on a lease, which lowers the monthly lease payment.

The Boxster has a very unique weld on the rear of the car, and if the car is in an accident and that weld requires repair or replacement, it has to be done by a specially certified tech. As I found out when I borrowed a friend’s Boxster, made a foolish sudden stop for a parking spot, and got rear-ended.
Point being, a

Friend of mine just took delivery on a new G70 two weeks ago. They put around $6K on the hood making his lease payment very attractive. I haven’t driven it, but he’s owned a ton of manuals and is very happy with it. 

Reliability surveys go up to what, 5 years? Take any Audi at ten years or older and tell me how reliable it is. The electrical stuff in particular.

Nah man, I’m white and its big and think and the white ladies love it.

So, not much cheaper than an E class wagon. Which has similar power, a nicer interior, more cargo space, and RWD.

Cadillac needs to find a new design language. Making cars that look like lego blocks isn’t working, and the fussy interiors are the exact opposite of where the market is going.
And ditch the three letter names. We get it, you’re emulating the Germans, but you don’t have the decades of brand legacy behind them to make

My 3-year old CPO with 30k miles was essentially 1/2 price of new
