  • Toyota does a special color every year for their TRD lineup.

    If you’re willing to count the black roof combo option the Corolla has 15 color options or 8 full color options. Red and blue are offered. Just no yellow or orange.

    People just don’t want to wait for a special car and want whatever is on the dealer lot. So they make as many of those in boring colors.

  • Toyota is famous for their wildly colorful cars in the TRD lineup. Magma Orange, nori green, and that like Smurf blue color.

    Ford has a vibrant blue as well. GM doesn’t deviate from bare colors much, but Ram/dodge will as well. Patriot blue, fire engine red, delmonico red, and plum crazy.

    Porsche has full paint to sample.

    Mercedes is basically famous for black cars so…

    Anyways, cars have colorful variants, just the consumer base either isn’t willing to wait for the order, or they don’t want to pay the extra 500-900 dollars most non-standard paint color costs.

    Also, a lot of manufacturers offer up tri coat white metallic which obviously looks boring from afar, but up close is very vibrant.

  • Happy to help! If you ever want to be irrationally angry at either the worlds dumbest engineer, or finance people somehow having a say in design; go look up oil changes on Ram trucks. They’re hilariously awful. Filters are placed facing down over things like steering gear boxes or right over the front differential. So it just gets over everything. In the case of the 2500 you have to go through the front bumper on the power wagons to get the oil filter out.

    But their trans are solid. It’s also the only good part in Rams, BMWs and Audi. A real miracle.

  • Older rams had a trans that would absolutely break or grenade itself. New rams, as much as their engine and electronics still suck ass, have a ZF Transmission and it’s REALLY good. Dead reliable and holds power.

  • He’s gonna have to ask the Bailey’s first.

  • LSC as a car-tuber is just such a gift. No click bait, no rage bait, no being a dick in his cars. Just a love of vehicles and working on them. Him and Doug DeMuro are like the only thing keeping me sane in the car community since all the others turn to super cars, buying insanely expensive stuff, and just constant environmental shitting and debauchery. I know my cars aren’t great for the environment, but the way other car-tubers just open pollute and destroy the environment is disheartening.

  • I’d say AirBnB’s pricing is worse since my hotel stay means I can just pack my stuff and leave. Most of the AirBnB’s I’ve stayed at have required me to cleanup after myself like I didn’t just pay a “cleaning” fee.

  • Not to mention that AirBnB doesn’t give me “points” to stay nights for free. So if you travel for work especially you basically squander your money away. AirBnB only makes sense if you’re a group of people and even then my last trip with them ended up being one where I regretted just not paying for me and my friends to stay in individual hotel rooms because it would have been cheaper and more convenient for parking and amenities.

  • Damn did you polish your comment to mirror finish?

  • So you agree you have a right to privacy in public? How are you soooo close to getting it and then losing the fucking plot.

  • You absolutely do, and even the Supreme Court has sided that you have some expectation of privacy. Blanket “you don’t have a right to privacy” is why I’m calling you a dumbass. The EFF even agrees with me.

    I don’t know what empty rooms you’re in, but I’m not surprised I guess given the kind of creep you are.

    EFF article

  • Why do you care if you have nothing to hide is a weak argument that’s been used to erode our rights. Fuck off.

  • This is how we ended up with Flock.

  • Nooo, but trump and all his totally cool and not criminal bros said that the president cannot give an illegal order…

  • It’s not our decision to make how many people Ukraine is willing to sacrifice for their land. That’s THEIR decision.

    The better question here is how many people is Russia willing to sacrifice for a war of conquest that shouldn’t have happened in the first place.

  • MAGA is the easiest crowd to be a nurse and care for. “Here’s your ivermectin and bootstraps to pull yourself up by.” Problem solved. If they can’t get better with either hard work or horse pills then they aren’t fit to survive…

    As for the rest of us, I’m keeping my dope ass mRNA vaccines thank you very much.

  • I suspect the “threatens economic stability” is stuff like printers that can produce dollars and the type of paper/thread/plastic material that makes up modern currency. I think people are looking for a conspiracy here when it’s just a logical choice. Some things people shouldn’t have a playbook on how to create.

  • Never said those other things aren’t what helped get us here. That’s why I gave the broader number of trillions and not just billions.

    Also, you’re calling me a MAGA when you’re the one actively defending a trump policy and decision… I’ve got two years of profile history that shows I’m not MAGA, you’ve been on here 5 days.

    When you give out “free” money whether to people or to corporations and you don’t continue it and only do it as a one time you effectively create inflation. Lots of people NEEDED money during the pandemic, and I’m not against that. It’s the culmination of multiple government hand outs to people and corporations with no active thought put into what they’re trying to do that creates a loaded system.

    It’s a fucking comment thread my dude. I’m not diving in with whole ass articles and a research paper just to make some fucking thread noob happy because he think I’m someone I’m not.
