Don’t forget Boeing & McDonnel-Douglas!

Merger of equals 2.0

The answer is always enshitification. Always.

Get those Honda’s before they become crap. This worked so well for Daimler / Chrysler. 

I prefer automobiles for adults.  Will show up with a fart can and a 19-25 year old with Oakley sunglasses at the wheel.

This was so true that Stephen Miller insisted that he got to speak to Trump after any meeting before Trump made any public statements.

My wife had 3 over our kids growing up years, and they were awesome on many levels! Personally, they were my trucks. I hauled all manner in the back of those vans,…
