He’s also wrong about everything he whines about. He should write about how he has somehow kept his job all of these years.

Who drinks whiskey with a burger? A beer or glass of red wine I could see.

Where I am, it’s wages, full stop.

And of course, this notion of blaming the current President for the state of economy is just plain nonsense to start with. He/She/They have about the least direct\immediate control of the economy of anyone in government - the wingnuts on Capitol Hill are far more responsible, and inevitably, the President inherits…

David Brooks whines about everything.

First of all, Bradley is 100% correct. That T8 drivetrain is the cat’s ass and the new gen V60's are super sexy (also, welcome back Bradley). Second, I totally understand wanting to distance oneself from an aging Audi, but just don’t understand the psychology of wanting to avoid completely normal and reasonable…

Keep the Audi gift from you parents (cost you nothing to purchase, I hope). Repairing it, modding it etc still won’t bring you closer to some of these EV prices recommended by the authors. None of the EVs will feel as “nimble” or spirted to drive as the A4. Also, If you need more power, the VAG 2.0T engines are…

Ummm....two more years for a replacement?   Hell no.  They need to build another one for that owner NOW.  That was their screw-up and they need to make that right.   If I were that owner and they told me two more years I would tell them the contract is void and take my business elsewhere. 

Has there ever been an Alfa for sale without a big box of parts?

I’ll buy it for seven grand, not twenty seven. I, too, know what they have.

If we defund the police, who’ll show up six hours after they’re needed, fill shit out on a clipboard, and never follow up?

I think a lot of the (understandable) knee jerk opposition people have to calls to defund or abolish the police has to do with the misapprehension that police exist to protect individuals or that they are part of the mechanism for serving justice. Protection and justice are not what the police are for, no matter what…

Why even have a ban at all? EVs are gaining traction, just forget the ban and focus on the charging networks. Emissions cut by a quarter or half is still amazing progress, (since you cowardly CEOs want to have everyone back in the office for some reason). Just keep making them better, mandate automakers have at least…

The transmissions themselves- as a concept- are not bad. There are many different factors that come into play: Quality of the transmission. Whatever company Nissan uses makes shit CVTs. OTOH Subaru has been sticking these in cars since the 80's and theirs are pretty good.
 
BUT.... With ANY of these the absolute key to…

Be a high school dropout or have a dishonorable conduct discharge from the military, or both.

Go put another blue line sticker on your car. 

From the article:

Wonder if this guy ever applied to be a cop? 

Honestly, I dread Atlanta the most. Not sure I’ve ever been there without getting some kind of delay.
