Expensive house + flashy cars + sleep troubled by financial worries

I think it’s a bubble. In fact I REALLY hope it’s a bubble. Consider the alternative. If it’s not - the middle class are no longer a home owning class in America. And that really means there’s no middle class anyone. It’s a defacto return to feudalism where a few people own all the property.

“Has already rose?”

It almost seems like we’re approaching something like the housing market, where the middle is increasingly hollowed out and all I see is $100k houses in places I don’t want to live or $500k+ in places I (and many other people) do.

Yeah. Can’t be turned off in my ‘17 STI, really bothers me. I find it actually makes it harder to start on a really steep hill, it's hard to judge how much throttle is required, I always feel like I'm giving it too much and therefore slipping the clutch more than necessary, when I hold back I lug the engine. It really…

Just out of curiosity, is there something about ACC that you don’t like? Or do you just find it unnecessary?

I use it somewhat often, but mainly for short easy instructions such as addresses for the GPS and calling people. It works well and for those uses it is faster than going through the menus in the infotainment.

This is my position on it as well. There is some discussion that the mRNA vaccine produces antibodies that fight the virus differently than the antibodies one gets from catching the virus, but if you have recovered from Covid, you have antibodies to fight Covid.

Eh, probably not all that much.

Me, for a start.

For example, 61% of owners say they have never used the in-vehicle digital market technology, and 51% of those saying they have no need for it. Owners feel similarly about the driver/passenger communication technology, with 52% saying they have never used the technology, and 40% of those saying they have no need for…

Speaking as a human, and I don’t mean to offer myself as a focus group of 1, but we’re getting over-teched.  So automakers, please take the hint. 

Is this unique to cars, though? How many people use all the tech they buy in a cell phone? Or a computer? Or a smart watch? Or software?

That’s a no. There’s a reason they adopted the name Tribute instead.

But it is Cadillac - at their age that are basically less than 5% left.

I love my Evo VIII to death, but the V is on my list of “must have somehow”. I just love the giant fog lamps crammed into the front fascia. I had the opportunity to drive a VI and it was even more of an intense ride than the VIII. The shorter wheelbase made it feel extremely eager on turn in and the car felt ready to…

I’d agree with the sole exception of the 22B. That thing is a MACHINE. And it looks SO SO good too...

It is. They’re both based on the current Chevy Colorado platform. GM sold it to Isuzu when they split a couple of years ago. Isuzu updated it and is sharing it with Mazda. The next-generation Colorado is getting an entirely new platform.

Oh, there’s a couple of Mitsubishi models that would be very collectible if they were in working order. G4M, A6M ...

Here, let me fix that for you
