Meh. If you like your Governor arbitrarily telling you what you can and cannot buy at Walmart and other stores, then she’s your Gov.

The fact is that there are just some jobs that no matter how many years you’ve been working there or what your financial needs are, simply aren’t jobs that are worth more than current minimum wage.

Scrap my arse. They are worth a lot of money. You can get hundreds of dollars per tailgate from people looking for replacement tailgates that some bastards stole.

You mean one of those huge adjustable hitches with two side alternate hitch types that is rated to tow double wide mobile homes and take out radiators and shins in a single blow?

That’s not the most crazy idea. Powered, drop side bed ‘gates’. One tailgate and two sidegates. All motorized because this will be a GMC Professional Grade only option.

Fine, fine. Whatever. It becomes an international flavor American movie. I think we missed a key part of the new standard for movie inclusiveness. Who is going to be gay? We can decide later if they are a minority class and/or binary.

Back in 2004 I visited England. The only American truck I saw the whole trip was out on the M-something. It was a late model, blue, extended cab, 2WD, F-150.

That car stopped faster while spinning out of control that a lot of cars do in a straight line with 4 inflated tires. Then again, for over half a million dollars I’d expect it to stop better than most cars even if it is upside down, skidding on it’s roof.

The first time I drove a car with a lot of those safety features I damn near drove off the road and came close to be rear ended. The warnings went off and I looked down at the dashboard to see what the car was complaining about rather than looking the road. Turned out it was over reacting to oncoming traffic in a…

55 MPH national maximum speed limit with new cars electronically limited to that speed. Additional safety features to enhance the crash experience. There are huge benefits for everyone.

Within the Go Media family of sites, your account will have different permissions/settings. For instance, one of my previous accounts never had any posting in The Root that wasn’t first Pending for the 2 years that I used it. I was always respectful and really didn’t disagree with anyone. I honestly complimented…

The Kinja commenting system is not very transparent. This is what I’ve gathered over the years. Sorry, but it is longer.

True. Very true. 3rd account. Only negative postings were calling this writer out from time to time when he said something really silly. Doesn’t take dissenting opinions well.

I still travel with a handgun, but not as much as I used to. Partly because I don’t travel to areas with higher crime and also because the TSA is a crap shoot when it comes to agents.

I suppose the Mustang vs. Camaro is a fractional measure of product making a huge difference in a small market segment.

I think the guys that caused GMC to move from commercial/work are those that had wives that drove Buicks/Olds/Cadillac. The guys wanted something a little up market, but they were men and needed manly men vehicles. GMC had an image of being ‘better’ tougher, so that was the starting point. Men buying the highest GMC tr…

I second that. Olds seemed to have some Pontiac excitement and some Buick lux. Towards the end though, they somehow screwed up on delivering either one. Having Olds seems to make more sense in the GM lineup.

Most Buicks aren’t bad. Quality is way up over 10 years ago. The problem is that they tend to be nice, but not particularly new, sporty or trendy. The Opel based stuff was a weird clash of American Buick lux and Euro plastics, stiffness and German frugality. Outside of the Chrome Potato (Encore), I’d take one over a…

Scion wasn’t ‘cheap’, they were a value choice because they still held onto the quality part of the Toyota DNA.
