  1. The MANY very wealthy Americans can afford them so why not? If you cannot afford to live in the city, do not live there. I don't. The US is huge. Fools cling when they should be mobile.

  2. Most humans are not intelligent (intelligence is not a choice, they cannot help it so this is observation not insult) so even honest folk are frequently incompetent. You are wise but this makes trusting (which is "naive" spelt differently) people uncomfortable. Advertising, ALL of it, exists to separate you from your money. If I do not initiate an online interaction I block it. I block voice calls as a matter of course since all comms should be by text not voice, which permits earchiving and easy research. I'm not an introvert, but I view humanity with the calm contempt nearly all of it deserves. Trust no one. I have never been scammed and am so thorough in dealings I've only had to use my cc's chargeback option twice in my life.

  3. Needs a rebrand. Call it something else and remarket.

  4. The US has done enough damage to Southeast Asia without adding our vile fast food. Good for the Vietnamese for rejecting diabetes and other consequences of US food. Now please open more Vietnamese restaurants in the US!

  5. Consumer protection laws should mandate ALL vehicle tests be performable using onboard diagnostics (since the systems use the signals they are present). De-facto vendor lock is a major issue in right-to-repair which of course greedy OEMs oppose. Regular humans perform every repair and maintenance task which means serious owners can do it too. DIY pays off better than most regular jobs. I've wrenched all my rides since I got my drivers license in 1978. That saved me tens of thousands of dollars including zero need to buy a new vehicle ever. Tool prices have been mostly flat over time and you keep the tools. Ordinary humans work on all the modern, complex systems and that's easier than ever thanks to Youtube and the rest of the internet. Self-service salvage yards are booming to supply late model parts.

  6. Fiat in the US are an answer to a question nobody asked. The first time they were too delicate for US use and QC was even bad by US standards. Meanwhile VW and Toyota put out RELIABLE vehicles. Low sales are a very good reason to avoid a vehicle because that mitigates against long term support. I haven't had to parallel park since 1981 and I own full sized trucks. The US has ROOM and lots of it.

  7. Nothing makes living in an area vulnerable to storm surge and levee failure a smart choice.

  8. The public create the government. The public elect that government including those who appoint non-elective positions. Unfortunately the American public are generally igorant, proudly uneducated as the decline of the US demonstrates, generally incompetent to run our Republic.

  9. Filipino food is delicious. This American loves the stuff and my Pinoy and Pinay friends hook me up. Bring more Filipino food to the US. The market is wide open. McDs is nasty.

  10. T Model Fords matched and beat that but they're forgotten today, being made into more specialty vehicles, truck conversions, farm equipment, "gow jobs" (the ancestor of hot rods), hot rods, tractors and other farm equipment, and their drivetrains used for industrial and light power generation. Beetles are cool but very much like T Models became quickly obsolete.

  11. PAY WHAT THE MARKET WILL BEAR. Work is compensated because it is suffering not fun. Industry wants more serfs. Cry me a river.

  12.  @MrWaterPeople  Portable pumps exist and leaving a scene to recharge means more downtime than simply adding diesel. There is no demonstrated NEED for BEV fire trucks as their tiny mileage per year means trivial pollution.
