I ran into a LOT of this, going both ways, when I was recently GTI shopping. Some dealers piled cheap accessories on or just jacked the numbers until the car (SE midline model, $31-33k-ish MSRP) was $35k, then “discounted” to $31k. Some marked the cars down to $27k, then added “mandatory safety & convenience packages…

something something lobbying 

So, two things.

Do you want a DC Universe, because THAT’S HOW YOU GET A DC UNIVERSE!

The irony here is fantastic. Shame you’re unable to understand it.

I once got a speed-camera ticket for 51 km/h in a 50 km/h zone. It cost me $70 to pay attention to the road instead of staring intently at my speedometer. Was I being unsafe? No. But since they apparently think speeding is the only safety problem on roads, they set out a bunch of speed cameras and don’t bother about…

You are an asshole, fuck you, you can pay everyone else’s tickets.

Artificially low speed limits, revenue generation over safety... Your comments ring of youth, naivety, and inexperience. Do you even have a driver’s license?

What’s your favorite flavor of boot?

Speed cameras are amazing things, especially when they ticket parked vehicles. If that doesn’t scream revenue generator, maybe you should place a deposit on an Elio.

“One is purposefully trying to act greater and above for the purpose of making those around them look/feel small.”

I know your family comes from old speed camera money but your defense of this system is baffling.

I’ve watched an elderly couple die in a head-on collision on Farm-to-Market 1061 just Northwest of Amarillo, Texas. I’ve lost tires, engines, and ran out of fuel. I’ve had to put my vehicle in the ditch on more than one occasion to avoid a head-on because some dickhead can’t judge passing distance on a 2 lane highway.…

But I’m in control of the people behind me when I’m going 10-15mph slower than traffic, right?

“rules are rules” guy is here

People bitching about speed limits are the same type of people that dont want any gun control “bad guys are just going to do it anyways, why have laws”

your argument is bad and you should feel bad.

Then Rosa Parks should have given up her seat on that bus, and Hank Aaron should have just said no to playing in the major leagues, and Willam Wallace should have just told King Edward that Scotland is his.

I’m sure it’s fine. I know it has some dedicated fans, but modern synthetic sealants are better in almost every way.

A leaf blower can be a good way to help get water out as well. It could also just force it further in, but you just have to be smart about. They’re awesome for getting water out of all the nooks and crannies in a motorcycle after a wash.
