These fucking adds have to stop. Half my phone screen occupied by bullshit adds. Literally, I can’t even see what I’m typing right now because the upper fucking half is add and the bottom is my keyboard. Getting to be useless on a phone.sometimes less is more. And fuck these adds.

This might be one of the best unexpected things written here in a while.

Another American option is the Ford Explorer. It’s available with the Ecoboost V6, is standard RWD w/ 4WD optional, and is rated to 5,300 lbs when equipped with the V6. The hybrid system has more power but less overall towing capacity (5,000 lbs).

If he can stretch the budget a bit, the Durango SRT Hellcat would give the wheelbase he’s looking for.  Plus a bit more space / 3 rows.  I might be in the minority in liking the looks of the Durango better.

I tend to disagree. Let’s say one is “uber rich” and has two choices:

That’s why I am weening off of this place and reading more on The Drive. Hopefully they can poach Tracy, Torch, and Rob and get a bit more of a sense of humor. I do like coming here nowadays, just for the comically misguided takes of the other writers and the people who echo chamber their nonsense. Keeping the enemy…

Actually, not true. Many cars have small changes year to year you don’t notice unless you are a fan of the cars.

I’ve never used it but assume it’s like Facebook posts but with video and run by the Chinese government

It doesn’t seem like a bad time to buy if you’ve got patience and a trade though, right?

What can we do as regular people beyond encourage each other to stop thinking that way?

Neutral: I was bummed to read this morning that Bob Seger’s house caught on fire this weekend. Yeah, he’s fine and uber-rich and all that, but that’s still the dude’s dream house. I went their once on Halloween when I was in high school. It was way too late (like 10pm) for trick-or-treaters, I was stoned out of my…

Do you not see the irony in you invoking ‘history’ and being unable to discuss any of our current issues without referencing Donald Trump?

3rd Gear: If it really were so easy to assign blame for it, so many extra factors in play the past two years that it can’t be pinned on a single entity. Around here everyone is #FJB and giving him all of the blame, I despised Trump and he made contributions to the situation as well but I’m not going to pin it on him.…

Naw, Biden was an improvement in the same way chopping off an arm is better than dying from gangrene. But it’s impressive how quickly people seem to forget about the pandemic that brought the world to a halt (including reducing fuel demand to all time lows).

Inflation is high now, but will prove to be more or less in…

What you believe about the perceived other side is fully reinforced by the media state and spending too much time on the internet and in comment sections like this, if not perusing news channels and websites all owned by the same collection of scumbags equally responsible for making life terrible for 90% + of people…

I appreciate all those who eschew Chick-fil-A. The line is long enough as it is.

Paying tax on money you haven’t received is a horrible idea and if you think they wont use this as an excuse to raid the middle class you are clueless.

Ford bet big on turbo sixes appealing to truck buyers who typically favoured V8's, and it worked out well for them. I’m not sure their buyers are collectively quite as narrow-minded as you think.

Did the math adjusted for consumer price index. $1.56/gallon in 2003 is about $2.13/gallon in 2018, which works out to about a $50/year fuel premium for today’s toughest, smartest, most capable F-150 ever.

I think some asterisks that showed the rate of inflation or a table of “in current USD” would be helpful here. $1.56 in 2003 is $2.11 today. So your $9.25 figure for the 2003 F-150 cost/100 miles is $13.21 vs. the $13.80 you’re paying today.
