Regardless of naming, the styling is just too euro-odd for American tastes. But that could be remedied by squaring up the body lines to look more truck-like, and maybe lifting the suspension an inch. Throw in some driver’s aids for the Boomers, like ACC and lane-keeping, and heated seats, and they would have a…

This is what people keep forgetting. Any time Trump doesn’t like the news cycle he says something outrageous and changes the discussion. It kills me that no one can ever avoid reacting to the latest shiny thing that he holds up, especially the media. It’s truly Trump’s only real skill, but he wields it brilliantly.

You can probably get a practical answer from dealers: See if they’ll credit the rebate to the purchase price. Dealers have that option, saving you the need to pursue the credit via your tax filing. If dealers will do it, they’re confident the rebates will continue.

I still find it incomprehensible that Stellantis has never cobbled together a compact/sub-compact CUV for Chrysler using the Fiat 500L platform. GM has sold a ton of these things as Buicks (Boomers) and Chevys (everyone else). The Fiat has too much baggage as a brand, and the 500L is too weird looking for Americans,…

I already took care of it late last year. The 2002 Sable wagon reached the end of its useful life (for me), so I took the jump and bought a 2022 Bolt EUV. It was a good time to make the jump to EV given the Fed rebate. I’ve been very happy with it. It’s a great vehicle for any trip safely within its 200 or so mile…

Sure, but you could at least figure to move off of the road. Onto sidewalks, front yards, whatever.

On balance, I’d rather be hot than freezing

And those tax rates would be meaningful if the uber-rich actually received what is considered income. But huge portions of their compensation comes in forms that aren’t considered income, which results in tax burdens that wind up being quite mild considering the incredible value of the compensation package.

I’ve been thinking this as well. It was only mildly amusing the first couple of times, but seeing it every day looks truly juvenile now.

I pay little attention to his nattering about Panama, Greenland, and Canada, or renaming the Gulf. These are just more examples of him successfully using outrageous statements to distract everyone, especially the media, from considering the actions that he is actually going to take. He has an entire field of questionab…

I genuinely wonder what it would take to spur the masses into any sort of action. Another Great Depression? Would that spark enough discontent among the low information voters to change the political landscape?

I’ve had the Pacifica multiple times as a rental (under it’s rental name. Voyager?), and I seriously considered it as a replacement for my old station wagon that finally had to be retired after 20+ years of service. I can’t say how it compares to the Sienna or Odyssey, but the Pacifica was quite capable, and to my…

This has real Days of Thunder vibes, but it probably won’t have the Tom Cruise ending.

When there is money to be made with the latter, and the former will certainly cut into profits, the answer is clear.

Came here for this, not disappointed.

Countering a $10K offer with $90K is kind of an asshole move. Given that he had already partially monetized his effort through YouTube views, I’m sure that he could have gotten a reasonable return for his effort with a more rational counter. Either that, or remove the Domino’s logos and sell it to another pizza shop…

I’m still amazed that they never figured out a sub-compact CUV for Chrysler. GM was selling thousands of Trax and Encores, yet Stellantis never decided to take a Fiat platform like the 500L and make it attractive to Americans. 

Tax the rich.

Unless the pizza oven accessed from the driver’s side is patented in some way, I can’t see anything else that could be deemed proprietary.
