I haven’t raked my leaves in years. I just leave the leaves on the lawn and run the mulching mower over them in November. It takes a few more passes with the lawn mower than during the summer, but the lawn appears to be happy in the spring.

One could get a mulching mower and never even bother raking them up in the first place. I have 2 dozen large trees (12-40 in diameter, silver maple, ash, elm, basswood, hackberry etc.) in my yard and have not raked a single leaf in 15+ years. Where there is enough sun for grass, the grass is fine and grows well. No…

This is the actual spiritual successor to AE86.

I’ve actually done the opposite a bunch of times - I fill up in Easton, PA (going eastbound) or somewhere in Westchester County (going westbound) because I refuse, on principle, to buy gas in New Jersey. And never have, except once on the Turnpike where I was running critically low and didn’t want to get on and off.

There’s a lot of advantages to buying a new car, and the Mirage isn’t that bad.

I don’t think there’s a single person buying the Bronco Sport that thinks they’re buying the Bronco.  They’re clearly different cars.

Nah. Prius is not a fancy car nor is it exciting to drive, but it does exactly what it was designed for extremely well. It is very very efficient, which means you can spend your money on other stuff. It is a hatchback so very very practical on a daily basis. It will gladly eat up miles on a road trip. Add a roof box…

Standard AWD powertrain, better looking than most CUVs in its segment, better ergonomics than its Escape sibling.

Ahh, the national vehicle of left lane sitting

Screw it, I’m not engaging in the Two Minutes Hate today.

There are (at least) two people with trucks like this in my neighborhood who put train horns on their pavement princesses for the sole purpose of scaring pedestrians. They’re the same type of people who roll coal on cyclists.

The new Hummer. It’s too big, it’s ugly, it mocks the whole idea of EVs and the jackass who passes me in one at 100 mph every morning thinks he’s immune to the laws of physics.

Huge pickups that will never have anything in the bed. The dudes who buy these are insecure people who are overcompensating by trying to buy their perception of masculinity. Why does it bother me? Because they also drive like 14-year-old bullies who were thrown a set of keys by their drunk old-man. But hey, maybe they…

As a devoted cyclist, who does well north of 10k miles/year, I have a great disdain for people on bikes who run red lights….. but man… hit and run is inexcusable.

Failure to report an accident? Fuck that. That’s a hit and run. Send her ass to jail.

GR Corolla baybee!

In other words, they know their target market.

Canyonero!!!!!

it is but the turning radius may be too wide to navigate the halls. It would be best to measure before the task. 

I would like to drive over my neighbor.
