^ ... While it is, technically, a Chrysler product... They didn't do the engine. Or transmission. Or much of anything really, except for the paint. Of course they didn't make the paint either. But they did apply it.

Bummer about that paint.

Just e-filed mine today. 3rd time since 2017 I had to deal with 1099Ks...freaked out the first time, but used to it now.

Gave up on The Big Three decades ago after that being all I drove for my first 15 years of owning cars. Last one I owned was a 1988 Mercury Cougar that I bought new . . . not sure what I saw in that car except it had a (feeble) V8 engine. Toyota makes reliable vehicles at a fair price. I drive a Toyota Avalon and love it. I also have a Toyota RAV4. Both with very nice 3.0 liter V6s that produce more HP than the V8 in my old Porsche 928. I especially enjoy having sold off my car ramps years ago AND not being on a first name basis with an auto mechanic like I was when I drove that Porsche. Then again, I rarely drive anywhere anymore. Way less than 4K miles per year.

But I had to make sure my daughter in college learned the hard way - same as I did. She got a 2008 Ford Focus last year. But actually, other than replacing the battery and tires (expected), . . . she hasn't had any problems. So far.

We're pretty minimalist here.

Maybe just a self-inked rubber stamp “CPK” somewhere on the box. Subtle and minimal.

My work truck is in the shop right now. Second time this year. Well third time if I count taking it back to repair the repair I paid for in January. But this is a new problem.
It’s a Ford.

I am in awe and left speechless by the final act of courage, defiance and patriotism displayed by the 13 border guards on Snake Island. I never even knew of them before today, but I will never forget them after today.

While it is literally (as in literally) LITTERALY useless and reasonably worthless, it still has more value than fiat currency like the US dollar because (unlike the dollar) there isn't a limitless supply and there is a cost for "printing" more. Hell, most "dollars" they don't even bother to print anymore. It's also imaginary digital funny money except there's nothing stopping "them" from printing a limitless amount. It's not linked to anything. It's all bullshit. It's just made up. Viewed that way, bitcoin is probably a better currency than the dollar, but its current market cap is 3/4 of a trillion dollars. In comparison apparently there's 1.2 trillion dollars of US currency in circulation. It might be a little overpriced....

I made you a hat for what you said just there.

HOWEVER...

Hes not lying folks. 100% true statement is quoted above.
