Ahhh, I kinda figured that’s what you meant. I get it, though. I like Mike’s personality, so all is well with me. Some of the cars they work on are just really interesting.

I was driving in to work this morning and I noticed that the flatbed truck in front of me had sparks coming out of its undercarriage every 4-5 seconds. Not sure what that was all about, but I switched lanes and moved ahead of it.

I thought that at first, too, but couldn't spot one. It was a Masonry company's truck, so I'm wondering if it wasn't just bits of cement sparking off of the truck body.

Old news, but I just came across this today while looking for something else:

Not only is the reporter's voice insanely annoying, but the blurred out part is literally only his thumbnail. "HIS RIGHT THUMB WAS COMPLETELY SEVERED."

LOL and the attorney's name is "Avi Cohen". It's like this is a "made for stereotypes" story.

My Uber driver in SF had a Tesla Series 3. That’s some fun ****. I wish I never found out how awesome they are. My 13 year old SUV is starting to be a chore to maintain. The model Y comes out next year. This is not a responsible path im about to embark on.

Especially after Tesla goes tits up and you can’t get it serviced.

Literally the servicing is the only thing stopping me from buying a model 3.

But honestly how much can there be to service. There are like one tenth the moving parts on it.

Somebody t-boned my mom last week, and the insurance company just totaled the car (12 Cruze). I'm pushing her to look for a used Civic/Accord/etc. Is cars.com still a thing? Autotrader? I don't even know where to start when looking for a used car these days.

Can't tell from that angle but I might have been in that room before. If it is DMCMW I have been in there and so has my car, but in different years.
