“People are still fueling up, despite these high prices,”

I recently read that Ukraine is one of the world’s major suppliers of sunflower oil. The Russian invasion has obviously messed with that market, causing price hikes in other cooking oil markets. Therefore, Indonesia is potentially going to further limit exports of palm oil in order to control costs within their…

Lol what “mass produced” EV came out in 2002?

Drive a new Camry Hybrid or the Lexus CT and try to say that with a straight face.

Early adopters almost always pay more. Yes, it’s still early days for EVs.

I bought a 2013 with the "shit" 4 banger and 4 speed auto.  I wanted a Caravan, wife wanted a Journey so we got that - she was going to be the one driving it after all.  Not one warranty claim since then.  Is it great? No but I didn't buy it expecting it to be great.  My wife wanted something with some height and she…

Even more insane is the price of used cars these days.

I got a Nissan Rogue as a rental once too. They suck, don’t they?

I bought one in 2016 and I am still waiting for it to be this horrible car that people say it will be. It was a V6 Crossroad for 20,400 out the door and also had 0% financing, why wouldn’t I buy it? It currently has 78,000 miles and has never been back to the dealer one time for any repairs other than maintenance.…

Owning people who bought:

A tale as old as time:

Most industries that claim a labor shortage really have a lack of pay issue.  

This is the way.

This is the correct take. New Civics are amazing looking in person and the interior is one of the best things Honda has ever done. Proportionally everything just works so well. And the oft-maligned swollen nose actually works in the flesh because you’re actually looking down at it, and not up at it from ground level…

That’s government contract work. I’m sure Halliburton directs bills the government 2 or 3 times his rate to have him sit at those hotels. Good on him for finding his space, but that's government waste at it's finest. 

The new HR-V looks better than the new WRX.
