It’s the flipside of the inevitable “Can you cook an egg on the sidewalk?” story they’ll do during a heatwave.

Does one of the crew have to wear the Mr. Peanut suit?

About the only thing a degree indicates is that a person is able and willing to commit to a pursuit for an extended period of time. But there are other ways to determine whether a candidate has that.

At least as important as a midsize pickup is a sub-compact SUV for Chrysler. Buick has sold many thousands of Encores to Boomers. Chrysler should have been in that market years ago.

The good thing about vanity plates (like mine) is that it makes it much easier to remember your plate when required to enter it, like hotel stays.

It’s become rare to find a free air pump at gas stations here in the US. I understand the financial urge for stations to offset the expense of the compressor, but giving a free couple of minutes of use with a purchase seems like it set one station apart from the rest, especially since so many cars are equipped with…

I have no idea if the house you mention has the second story door for this purpose, but further north in MI some houses had such a door to let occupants get out if the snow piled up high enough to block the first story doors.

I’ve long thought that a gas station would do well to offer a free-to-use air pump that was driven by gas purchase. Just like the pumps that give you a numeric code to use at the car wash when you select the option at the pump, it could also give you a code to operate the pump for 5 minutes with a minimum purchase.

The driver, and you, are both wrong. enginerthefuture spells it out concisely below. Letting another driver merge efficiently does not mean that that he has a bigger penis than you.

There are not enough stars in the sky for this post. Zipper merging is the clearly more efficient use of highway.

Additionally, A City on Mars by Kelly and Zach Weinersmith is another excellent, well-researched look at what it will take to get any kind of extended human existence off of this planet.

I think that Trump is trying the “Crazy Eddie” tactic on trade relations. Crazy Eddie is where you sound so psychotic that your superior opponent backs off. It’s the tactic that a smaller guy tries in a bar confrontation. It fails more often than it works, though.

I remain convinced that whatever EV policy changes Trump makes will be carefully calibrated to hurt all EV manufacturers except Tesla. 

Yeah, if you drive a long or wide truck, you should accept that you’re parking in the back of the lot

Seems ol’ Jeffy is a day late and a couple hundred million short of commanding Donnie the Con’s attention at this point.

I remember them called something like a necker’s knob, in that they freed up the driver’s right arm for extracurricular activities.

Also a question that Tesla FSD struggles with.

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.
