Glad to help; sometimes I have to make up for my Totally Objectively-Correct, Always-Factchecked Takes (TM) with an honest-to-god public service.

Looking forward to getting there.

I didn’t rate them at all when they first came out — I was up my own arse about them not being a ‘worthy successor to the FJ40' or some shit — but they grew on me and I agree with them being worthy of preservation.

I was on my motorcycle behind a very sluggish driver the other day, and when I pulled up behind her at a stoplight she had two phones on her dash, as well as the vehicle nav. One phone was a different nav app (probably lyft or uber), and the other was TikTok, which she dutifully swiping through. I wish I’d had a…
