I'm usually not in favor of these large mergers since they reduce the number of competing companies, but for anyone more knowledge about the US cellular industry, would this merger actually be in the interests of consumers? ATT and Ver

I can attest to Honda cheapening out on some of the fasteners, although I've never worked on a MB. For the minimal maintenance I've done on the drivetrain I haven't really noticed it but a few years ago my radio went out so I

The manual that came with my car includes an overview of the suggested maintenance. Aside from that there are some very good resources online, especially make or model specific forums, and some handy Youtube videos that give step by step in

That would definitely make more sense. Just today I found out a coworker leased a VW Golf EV last week, which may be more than the Leaf, and they are paying around $150/month.

I've increasingly noticed this myself. I known a number of people who spent like crazy and loaded up on debt prior to 2008. After the RE crash, some of them even went through foreclosure/bankruptcy. For a few years after it seemed

The system sounds are indeed very pleasing somehow. A number of the UI elements, namely the system settings pane, the detecting network popup, and the keyboard, have a very Android like look to my eyes. Is there much known about the underly

I had two experiences that convinced me to start changing my own fluids and doing basic maintenance. One time I took my Honda to a dealer for an oil change and they over tightened the oil pan plug to the point that the threads stripped off.

>15$/month total all in As a very frugal owner of a 17 year old Honda who doesn't know much about leasing, can you expand on that? How is this possible?

I'm not at all discounting your point, but isn't Japan's rail system made up of various private rail companies? Or are those quasi governmental?

I have nothing constructive to add aside from that I appreciate the simple uncluttered design of your blog. The typography and glasses logo are very pleasing to my eyes as well. Good luck and I look forward to reading more.

This is my big reservation about HSR even as a huge proponent of rail transit. I live in a working class area of south LA and there is huge demand here for local/regional rail and other transit. Neither LA, despite its improvements ove

I'm not really sure I agree with that analogy. My primary problem with it stems from the fact that current policies don't exist independently of previous policies. I agree that on a scale of badness, Trump certainly seems worse to

Off topic, but what does it mean to self fund a PhD? Does that mean that they don't receive a stipend or salary the way most graduate students do? Does this mean the lab they are working in isn't responsible for funding them?
