Boomers shop Audi, Mercedes and BMW sedans, not Mazda. Haven’t you heard? We have all the money. If Mazda’s sedan is failing, it’s because it doesn’t appeal to young families. 

If Korean luxury cars depreciate quicker than others, but have essentially the same features, then it seems like buying a used Genesis would be the way to go.

If houses are going at $100K over asking, then what is the psychology of not simply asking more to begin with? Is it a status thing? It seems that the real estate agents setting these low asking prices are playing some sort of game. 

This bridge connects Arkansas to Tennessee. Mississippi is the name of the river. 

The most unreliable car I ever owned was a 1974 Audi Fox, and, considering I traded a Chevy Vega for it, you can imagine how bad the Fox must have been.

Wait - if half your commute is downhill, then half your commute is uphill.

So these owners liked the low running costs, the shorter commute and the longer range that comes with plug-ins”

I believe that’s the garage at The Hotel California. 

Not all landfills and low permeability - not impermeable. 

If you owned a stock with a P/E ratio over 1000 - in a company that is competent, but just one of many competent companies in the space -  you’d probably be sensitive to anyone criticizing the company.

Based on history, you would think that the fire crews might exercise extra care at that particular intersection.

As more electric cars replace ICE cars, demand for gasoline will decline and it will become dirt cheap. The argument that electric cars are cheaper to fuel could disappear. It’s going to take mandates to get us to a full EV world. 

I feel bad for the people in line behind him.

Was there real data that supporting backing in, or was it simply that more accidents happened backing out of spaces because more people went into spaces nose first? I’m pretty sure they didn’t know, but they’ll

Think how cheap gas would be if half the cars on the road didn’t use it. 

They let regular people have these cars for an extended period. There was one in Memphis that we’d see in the supermarket parking lot from time to time. It was very exciting for all of us model building, car obsessed boys. I don’t think we’d have been more excited if they’d pulled up in a Mercury capsule. 

Serra Toyota in Birmingham, Alabama - man, that brings back some memories and none of them were good. You dodged a bullet by not buying from them. 

As AG, he likely knew the law’s repercussions for an intoxicated driver. This could perhaps explain why he didn’t go to the police until the next day when there was no way to tell if he’d been intoxicated.

You know things are nuts when you Google Escalade, school bus, and wreck and get multiple hits (no pun intended). 

If it takes 20 minutes to charge, there better be enough stations so that I don’t have to wait for a couple of people to charge before I get up to one.
