So much this. Well written.

Huge huevos.

We old men love a good rant. Rave on!

Seems likely to me as a ”bit” of a dick. It’s not just his humor - it’s his actual personality, folks.

*cough*

Point taken. Thing is, my Accord costs half as much, gets near 40 mpg and does what I need it to do 98.5% of the time. The few times it doesn’t, I can rent a Home Depot or U-Haul truck for $50 and get it done. If you need that capability more often, you are the true target demographic and I salute you.

No offense, but SUVs are still stupid and wasteful. Then again, after a visit to Sam’s Club where chocolate and snacks are selling by the ton to people too big to actually walk, I expect this type of waste. Hey - everyone is doing it! It’s a BMW and an SUV! You can have it all!

There ya go.

If you think it’s bad now, you should have seen it back in the ‘60s. Then again, the air was so polluted then, you might not have seen it unless you were *in* the rivers. I could barely see the skyline from a hill 10 miles away in Jersey. On many days, you couldn’t see it at all.

That’s not a Griffith. This is a Griffith:

The saying “He knows the price of everything and the value of nothing” applies to both ends of the spectrum - spendthrifts and tightwads. Here, we have million/billionaires that have so much dosh that that they have nowhere to park it. The solution is in the sentence, right?

Seems to me that teal is what happens when you have “fear of green”. Automakers have green aversion for some reason. It may not be the most popular color, but they could at least make it a choice. Instead, they sneak it in by blending it with blue.

To be fair, it’s unfortunately not common knowledge that ALL vehicles should have their brake fluid changed every two years. It’s hydroscopic after all. Who wants water in their brake pistons?

It boggles the mind, but it’s true. You really cannot see anything for what it really is. Green leaves are everything but green. It’s the green part of the spectrum that gets reflected to us.

My uncle Andy hit some beef while racing in Baja back in the day. He literally broke his neck and was put in a halo. Henceforth, his cars were all named “Bullfighter”. His son later t-boned a Jeep and, rather than Andrew II, he is still called Jeep. I love those guys. :)

Yah, it’s a 9th Gen Accord. I don’t know if mine can T-bone a curb without damage, but I can state that an ‘86 CRX Si can. Coming out of a mini-mall on a dark night, I confidently made a left when exiting where a sign said that I couldn’t and slammed one at about 20 mph.

Not that old! :P

It was kinda weird hearing the 7 liters “idling” down the Mulsanne straight while the Ferraris were screaming for their lives. They didn’t seem to be in the same class at all.

Inre scratching, the cheapest screen protectors are made of some sort of self-healing plastic and, since you get 3 in a package, give you three tries to get those aggravating bubbles out from under them.

Fake news! This is all deep corporate nonsense and anti- Musk bias
