OT 21: DFD Giveth and DFD Taketh Away

For some it's worth the price to have the first one in town. No hate on that, market economy gonna market economy. I get it, and hey, this is America, spend your money on what you want. Hell, I did that to an extent with the 86, could've waited six more months and had it for less. Still though, $70...

Yeah the whole 4 cylinder thing can suck it. Much like the new Colorado. Errbody LOVES this truck, MT truck of the year, blah blah. ZR2 starts @ under $50K. And yet, errbody says the 4 cylinder turbo sucks. It sounds terrible and gets TERRIBLE, V-8esque fuel mileage. You can't have a great truck wi...

FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS CUTE!!

Sorry boss. Correct decision but it's never easy. We still haven't gotten back in the saddle after losing our two dogs a couple of years ago, in part to avoid another loss.

The thumbs down is very funny. I still haven't seen one, I guess I'm just lucky like that. I’ve tried to get in the habit of throwing a thumbs down instead of flipping other drivers off when they pull shit stunts. It’s great. Rather than inciting more road rage, they usually just look a little shee...

I did ppf on the M3 and there are several specks of dust underneath it. Found 3 more yesterday but I don't really see it on the paint unless I'm detailing the car. It's more noticeable on the carbon roof though. PPF guy had to do the roof and both fenders twice because of mistakes. Smaller pieces l...

Even if I was doing it for the attention, the top end CyberTruck costs as much as a Z06 Corvette. I think I'd rather get thumbs ups in the Vette than thumbs downs in the Shed.

I saw my first Cybertruck this weekend. Then I saw it again this morning. Each time, I couldn't stop laughing. I had to point it out to my wife and we both laughed and shook our heads. The driver definitely saw us. The whole thing looks so ridiculous. It's supposed to be some dystopian, cyberpunk t...

I don’t think you’re crowdfunding anything. They are still on the hook for the venue/food/entertainment etc. you’re only funding your own room and board/transport which doesn’t seem like it should be sponsored by anyone I have gone to a destination wedding and enjoyed it.
