There are various numbers out there but based on a few articles about a third of Americans live in multi family housing, so I certainty would not call charging for apartment dwellers a minor problem. It’s probably the second largest impediment to widespread EV adoption behind cost. 

I’m down to just Netflix and HBO, I cancelled everything else. Every damn network wants you to buy a $15/month subscription now on top of the $175/month I have to pay Comcast for the damn internet connection in the first place. It’s just too much.

That is pretty incredible. If I had a drift track near me I could use for $200 I would absolutely be a regular patron. I’ve never seen any sort of track day in Florida for less that $500 

4Runner is also a strong seller despite being almost 15 years old. G Wagens are extremely popular among the wealthy. 

I’m amazed there are already such cheap options. We have nothing like that in South Florida where I live. Street takeovers are a thing here too but seem to be less prevalent than LA. Or maybe they just write about them more in Cali.

I don’t buy that, at all. Maybe a few of these guys enjoy just being disruptive assholes but if there was a legal, accessible and affordable alternative car people would flock to it. How much is track time at Irwindale? How often is it available?

I get the anger, I’ve had guys doing burnouts at 3AM directly below my…

How about giving people a safe, legal space to play around? There must be a big empty lot somewhere that can be turned into an off street venue for hellcat dudes that want to do burnouts and donuts. Give them a better way to have their fun and get them off of public roads.

This has already happened, some insurance companies won’t insure the cars at all. The people suffering the most are those who bought the cars before thefts became such an issue. 

VW’s criminal behavior was not a major detriment to their customers, although you could certainty argue it hurt all of us in terms of environmental damage.

Someone (wish I could remember who) wrote about an idea for making police carry malpractice insurance like doctors that would pay out if they are sued for on the job misconduct. If the officer has a bad record and the premiums become too high, time to find a new job.

Or maybe they’re waiting to add space buggies to a future DLC. 

This is not good news for the brand considering by most accounts the engine is the only good part of those cars. 

Why even have a yacht if you’re not going to use it to do blow and bang hookers? 

Hell even the terminals are unacceptably hot these days. I was flying out of Houston a few weeks ago and I was sweating before I even got on the plane. 

Maybe it was the old Dakota based Raider? They look fairly similar. 

A lot of recent Hyundai/Kia models are basically uninsurable because of the theft issues. 

The problem is Toyota/Honda have very high resale for economy vehicles, especially in these days of inflated used car prices. This is why the true broke person’s choice will be American. They are cheaper to buy, and while they are not as reliable they are also typically cheaper to repair when they do break. 

Absolutely! This is great progress but not enough. And 3 hours is frankly too long considering they never run the damn AC on the tarmac and will happily leave you sweating in a 95 degree Florida August day for hours.

Looking at it purely from a financial standpoint there’s realistically no way to make any meaningful improvements in road safety without passing on large cost increases to the average driver. Considering we are already seeing a major cost of living crisis it’s not surprising there is no political will to do anything…

My father has had massagers in his last 3 vehicles, I would rate the new Lincoln’s as excellent. Range Rover is decent, nothing to write home about. Cadillac was pretty worthless, it just moves the lumbar up and down a bit.
