Just out of curiosity, do you have a problem with deaf people driving cars? Modern cars are so soundproof these days that I can’t even hear an ambulance until it’s right next to me anyway.

My Hyundai has USB/Aux/Bluetooth capability, with no touchscreen or infotainment system. It’s absolutely perfect. I wish the automakers would stop shoehorning touchscreens into everything. Buttons are superior in every way.

I liked the Shelby a lot but my heart belongs to the 2012 Boss 302 in Kona Blue. Not as much power as the Shelby, but it was still a screamer and could corner like a German performance car. Also, the hockey stripes. So sexy.

Gas is a tiny percentage of the total cost of driving a luxury SUV. It would have no effect.

Let’s say you’re the type of person that just loves wheeling and dealing. My grandpa was like this. He was constantly driving a different car. So, my grandpa wasn’t a wealthy guy. He was flipping cars worth less than 5 grand, and probably didn’t make more than a few hundred bucks a year doing it, because he had a day…

Lol look at this guy who thinks complying with business regulations is cheap. “Hundreds of dollars a month” adds up to thousands of dollars a year. I doubt anybody is making that much money selling 5 cars a year, which is what Steve says is the threshold for dealer status in his state.

“people who are not dealers but ought to be because they sell too many cars”

That’s a whole lotta words to say that Jason Whitlock is a tool.

I went to the local Ford dealership. After about 15 minutes, a salesman walked up to me and started asking me the typical questions. “How are you? What are you looking for?” I explained to him that I was looking to trade in my mustang for something a with 4 doors, and better fuel economy, and that I’d like to test…

Nobody cares where cars are actually built. All that matters is where the headquarters is. That’s why people call VWs, BMWs, and Mercs German cars, even when they’re built in North America. It’s why a Chrysler can be an American car even when it’s made in Canada. All the yuppies driving their “German” Porsche Cayennes…

Oh shut the fuck up. You’ve probably never been to either place.

Mercedes isn’t the only thing in Alabama. A whole bunch of parts suppliers have also built facilities in Alabama to support Mercedes, Hyundai, and the Kia plant in West Georgia. Aston Martin’s affiliation with Daimler (as mentioned in the article) probably means that they utilize several common suppliers. Building a…

It’s pretty clear to me that this was the inspiration for the Camaro. I think it looks way better than the GTO abomination we got, which looked like an engine-swapped 2-door Sunfire.

Well said. In 15 years, healthcare, social security, and net interest will equal 100% of tax revenue. We’re fucked, and it’s all the baby boomers’ fault.

Defense spending as a % of GDP is the lowest it’s been since before WWII. It’s Medicare and Social Security that’s taking money away from everything else. If current trends continue, every penny of tax revenue in 2031 will go towards healthcare, social security, and interest on the national debt.

There you go. Just keep on regurgitating that long-debunked Keynesian drivel.

It’s pretty cool how little CGI they used to do all these scenes. I am much more excited about watching this movie now.

This x 10000. Hyundai knocked it out of the park with the new Sonata. When my current lease expires, the Sonata is currently in the lead to be my daily commuter. They offer it in a color called Nouveau Blue, which I think looks fantastic.

I’ve always thought that they’re more like what Honda ought to be. They’ve rebuilt their brand into the mold of inexpensive reliable cars, the same way Honda did in the 1990s, and now they’re taking chances on designs without sacrificing the core brand values.

lmao nice catch
