That’s just what Elon wants you to think.

It does still follow the trend that everyone Vance supports has lost their elections. If Musk also got in there to support Orban, it would be the death-rattle to his “leadership”.

I mean, my SUV is a 2004 and seems to be holding up pretty well. I give it full synthetic oil and take it off-road occasionally, so it gets a wide range of treatment. Maybe I’m just not as bothered as other people are by the occasional bit of maintenance. I just replaced the thermostat this Fall, which was certainly a lot harder than on the old car because this one is buried down along the side of the engine, but it was still a pretty simple job.

It was a '74 Pontiac LeMansthat I bought in 1987. And sorry, I did forget about one thing… I had to replace the transmission a couple times, but back then you could get them from a junkyard for cheap, and it only took a couple hours to replace. Probably would have lasted a lot longer if I’d taken the time to rebuild the clutches though. Of course it’s not like you can drive any vehicle forever, there was the maintenance as things like bushings and alternators wore out. For this discussion though I don’t count things that you have to do on any vehicle with 300k miles on it. Everything wears out eventually, and yeah even the motor was starting to smoke by that time.

That’s what rich people are for – to suffer for the benefit of the working class.

Never buy new. Let someone else deal with the frequent hassle of getting all the problems fixed “under warranty” while the lemons get sent to salvage. Give me the vehicles that survive. Case in point, I bought my first car for $500, drove it for 24 years, and the biggest age-related expense was rebuilding the front end for $600. I sold the car in 2011 for $1000. I bought my current SUV in 2009 and the biggest mechanical failures have been replacing the power steering pump and the 4WD short axles.

I had a friend who insisted he needed to spend all his money buying new cars. He tried to tell me how much money he was saving because the dealership was fixing all the problems for free. I pointed out that he had barely even driven his new car because it was spending more time at the dealership every week or two and he was constantly wasting his own time taking it back for yet another problem.

We should start posting that 3.2% of children watching Trump on TV have developed autism, therefor Trump is using subliminal messaging and is dangerous to their kids. They may not care that a pedophile is in office, but mention subliminal messaging and they’ll go crazy.

Don’t forget about cops giving gun-safety classes.

I was just wondering how much I could sell them for if they had an actual bullet hole through them…

I guess this is how they solve their food shortage after getting so much blowback from trying to force children to replace migrants working in the fields.

Amazon is so bad at coordinating their deliveries that I have seen three delivery vans parked on my block at the same time. Now I’m just waiting for them all to show up at the same house at once.

Hooray for no safety and hooray for death.

Isn’t that the Musk philosophy? Kill anyone who gets in the way, and sue everyone else who survives his death traps?

God that article was a horrible read. So for anyone who wants to skip it…

tl;dr: Hackers are using SSL certs from 2012 and changing the unprotected system clock in order to bypass security measures.

People are just too impatient. Don’t they know Trump promised to bring down the prices on his first day back in office? /s

You didn’t see the quote in the above comment that specifically states Teslas don’t have lidar but other brands using it weren’t fooled?

Trump Derangement Syndrome – When you are so infatuated with Dear Leader that you will do anything for him, say anything to defend him, and try your best to be just like him.

Canada has more land mass than the US does. Perhaps Trump should be talking about integrating the US into Canada (and doing away with the now-redundant US Presidential position).
