That’s great for you. I don’t think many have had that experience. Perhaps your reduction was due to you keeping the same car, and the expected repair or replacement cost came down enough for Amica to offer the discount. But I also assume you never made a claim, so all the money they collected from you was basically…

Perhaps the best answer would be to tell the in-laws something honest, like:

I fucking hate these people with a white-hot rage from hell.

So what happened that made it so Chrysler is not even on the list?

Well, I used to remember when car show hosts enjoyed cars. Clarkson, Hammond and May do not seem to like cars, based on how they treat them. Bash them, thrash them, abuse them, and then destroy them. All while doing shtick that, as others here have noted, is privileged white-male, homophobic, misogynistic, racist,…

To quote Homie the Clown, “Homie don’t care.” (Damon Wayons may approve of this quote, perhaps not.)

My understanding is that the dongle, once installed, does not check speed. The things it looks for are rapid starts or stops (which is silly, as my using the brakes to stop and avoid hitting the idiot who stopped for no reason in front of me or cut me off in traffic), along with miles driven and, most interestingly to…

I guess I should have recorded it and uploaded it to YouTube, as people will watch other people play video games, or open boxes of stuff, but if you have to read, it is too long and can’t be done. (Rant over, thanks)

Cummins and Navistar seem to agree. They are both working on going all in on hydrogen as the replacement for diesel, as they think batteries will be too heavy to effectively compete, along with increased time for recharge versus refueling with hydrogen. And when those 2 companies say Hydrogen, I tend to think they…

That is the best description of the situation. GM, a company that has built cars for over 100 years, and some time back produced cars that were considered “the Standard of the World” IS being judged differently. And should be. They have the historic knowledge, the corporate DNA, as it were, to be able to develop and…

Neutral: Oh, Cadillac Buyers Are Good Enough For EVs?

The sad fact is that your mother loves Trump and Fox more that she loves you. She is willing to die for them, like any cult devotee. Not that she thinks she will die, but in her view, COVID only affects ‘others’, and she is not in danger. That’s how they get you to drink the actual Kool-aid, or eat the pudding like…

1st Gear: Tesla Has Reached A Summit

The issue is that dealers have fewer cars in inventory, but they still have the entire line of vehicles from that manufacturer at their disposal to sell. They may not be able to have you drive it off the lot, but they certainly can sell you what you want.

And for those that you leave behind that do hang out with the boss (or future boss, or form a company, etc.), they’ll get the promotions, go farther, maybe be more successful.

This really applies only to office jobs, as a lot of jobs require you to physically be there to perform work, like at a hospital, or a garage, or such. That’s not true for call centers and a lot of general office work. The issue is that the remote office jobs can be done in Bangalore, but the companies have found out…

Actually, the premium currently being paid to those living and working in high-cost areas are likely to go away, but I have my doubts that it will raise the pay of those currently paid to those in lower-cost areas. The companies doing the hiring will have to figure out how to weed out the higher salaried folks once…

Or, you can do what my sister, brother, elderly mother, and I do.

Well, elevated did have a slight chance, at least here in Florida, up until then Gov. Rick Scott killed it by not accepting the federal money. Which was fine, up until around 2018, when it was discovered that he and his wife were major investors in the “new” private group that was proposing the exact same elevated…

Correct, and not germaine to this issue. The Lillium, apparently, exists, and works. So do train stations, taxi stands, and the like. So this is just another flavor of existing stuff, with an exciting new color frosting on an old pop tart. Will it work? Maybe, maybe not. But is Orlando losing a thing by giving tax…
