4th Gear:

The accident sounds looks like a left turn gone wrong. Heavily loaded vehicle with poor acceleration, riding on the bump stops, making a slow turn that required a commitment long before cross traffic could be completely identified.

Fortunately, it is a unit of measure that hasn’t changed in your lifetime, meaning you could have learned it once and never been confused by it again.

Who are these mail carriers that know how to park and use a compass?

A Tesla is supposed to be your 3rd car, at least. They are still selling to the demographic that’s concerned about roundtripping this to their lake place.

I don’t understand the tone of his State Farm commercials. He either comes off as a jerk, or he has an agent who is total sleeze. 

So .... when it inevitably appears in the Pixar Cars franchise, Peyton Manning is a lock for the voice, right?

American Catholics are full of shit.  The Pope is a clear “No” on 3 critical life/death issues: abortion, euthanasia and capital punishment.  Find me a prominent American RC that agrees with all 3.

“Skeletons in the closet?” They are sending their kids to a Catholic school. If the kids aren’t being assaulted by a priest, their tuition is paying to cover up for the ones who are.

That line smacked me in the face too. Are they going to name their debut model “The Cicada”?

Invest in a couple portable dehumidifiers, and run them constantly until it is warm enough outside to leave your windows open during the day.

Don’t forget the devout Roman Catholic who has cheated on all four of his wives.

The amount and location of the thefts strongly suggest the thieves are operating on some inside knowledge. How secure do you think the FCA servers are?

The Mini has always been a poseur car for the poseur driver, so the EV version is at least staying on brand.

This really should have been cross-posted to Jezebel. I was half-expecting this new brand to incorporate a lavender triangle into their logo. Guaranteed that the trailer package is standard.

Why? Because there must be at least one writer-hating reply on every Morning Shift post. Some people still want to think the US population is under 200 million and traffic is only a problem in godless cities.  What good is 700HP if your roads are at 200% of designed capacity?

Have you seen how he treats his wife?

1st Gear:

Well, he’s still trying to pretend his first marriage never happened. The fakeness just shines all over him.
