The most surprising part about all of this is that Hertz didn’t try to immediately arrest all of the customers.

Can we all get on the same page that drivers should have some large truck training before being allowed to rent a full-size box truck? These things take significantly more effort, attention, and anticipation to drive than passenger vehicles and it blows my mind that some random average (moron) driver can hop from

Surprised no one said Infiniti, they started off pretty much even with Lexus (and Nissan was also producing product as good as Toyota in the ‘90s) and have just kind of slowly faded from relevance or having an upscale image, the Japanese Lincoln.

Lived in MD for over a decade, so I know Sheetz and Wawa well. I liked them both but for different reasons, really. Perhaps it was simply the ones I went to that always seemed on point.

Never been to Buc-ee’s, but all the rest are just kind of meh. I stop at Sheetz a lot because of where I drive for work, but there is no great gas station food IMO. I do like the variety that Sheetz has to offer though. I can get a veggie wrap or deep-fried mac and cheese, even tacos and a ton of other stuff.

Here’s a vote for keeping a two-pilot flight crew. And Airbus is pushing EASA for single-pilot flight decks.

Surprised they give a shit. They just send flood cars to auctions in GA and Texas and let the used car dealer sell them to some poor sap with a “clean” Car Fax.

28% of the first year Broncos were manuals. Tacoma still sells a ton on manuals. Nissan was actually selling quite a few stick shift Versas as well.

Nissan could possibly turn things around:

I guess it’s aimed at that sliver of market that insists on only buying new cars, but also cannot afford new cars. Mind you, a gently used Civic is probably still more reliable than anything Mitsubishi or Nissan produce.

With our insurance rates, I’m surprised Michigan isn’t on this list...

The methodology is flawed...

I switched to NJM two years ago and saved a ton over State Farm, but I think NJM is very limited in states they cover. Our home insurance went up like $400, but I saved around $1k a year on car insurance.

I've switched insurance twice in PA. Saved $600/yr going State Farm to Progressive then cut my premiums in half again going to Erie. SF was way more expensive in GA than AL and the local rep said they just didn't want to cover people where I lived so they jacked up the rates.

Altima drivers, and Sentra drivers that aspire to be Altima drivers.

I might misunderstand, but here’s what it looks like to me: Tina applied to 2 financing companies, selected the offer from one, finished the paperwork, and owned the car. So far, so good, a normal process. But then the dealership submitted a third financing request to a third company, but giving materially different

It’s nice to see only a $0.20/gal premium for premium, versus a $1.20/gal premium though.

Remember Mitsubishi Circa 1996? They actually made some great vehicles. That line up included the Eclipse, 3000GT, Galant (with awesome vr-4 variant!), Montero, and even a near-luxury Diamante. That’s not even getting into the forbidden fruit EVO III.

Can you blame them? I don’t remeber ever reading a review of the Migrae that didn’t shit on the car. Maybe it was that bad, in which case it’s not a big loss. That said. it’s depressing to think of how much it costs to get into even the cheapest new car in America these days. With this and the Nissan Versa going away,

It’s a shame. Mirage was the only car left that could remind you what the 80s bargain basement econo penalty box felt like. It’s like that old joke, you know, “The food at this place is really terrible, and such small portion, too.”
