It may be that they are preferring not to stock them at dealers precisely because the dealer has no motivation to sell it. I believe this has happened to other models with other brands, but it’s escapimg me at the moment which ones. However

Sometimes people don’t steal because they need to, but because they want to. It’s a puzzle, it’s a rush, it’s fun, and for some it’s their hobby.

It’s not just Ford. Here is an article about GM. This is just the beginning of how they will monetize their product. Well it’s not a product anymore it will transition into a service as car ownership fades away. Watch these ads for a reduc

It’s not that they do it. It’s that they allow it. Not outright, but they don’t go out of their way to suppress/stop it anymore more than anybody else.

My wife and I walked into our Sears for the first time in forever. We were looking for a dress shirt for our son. The place was almost completely empty of product. The shelves were bare, there was almost no racks to place things, and nobody

You’d be surprised how many people in digital marketing don’t have a Facebook account. I thought I’d be shamed for never having one, but the more I talk about it, the more people I find out don’t have one either Note: I have an empty/f

They also have support for Google MyBusiness (local listing). This is their gateway to more AdWord spenders. Most noticeable because it’s the first pop up you get after you claim your listing.

My local grocery store, Woodman’s, has 4 types of checkouts. Normal full service, 15 or less self checkout, over 15 self checkout with a conveyor, and their newest self checkout with a conveyor but they bag and assist. That last option is t

I once bought a 2k item online from a well known camera store in the US. I called and asked for a competitor price adjustment. I did end up purchasing it over the phone. A day later I noticed that a fraud specialist from that company looked

I believe Google does this for suggested search. I’ve noticed that my suggested search is eerily spot on for my current conversation with someone who is searching or just searched for something that I too am now searching for.

Funny story. I actually sat next to a person on my last flight who does this for a living. She indicated they do business for large companies and small ones too. They are paid on a lead basis. Average lead price is $5-$10. I don’t know many

For what it’s worth, I have taken my LED bulbs back to Home Depot and have gotten then replaced at no cost. This is a lot easier with their electronic receipts as I can easy look through my receipts and pull it up to show purchase date.

I don’t live on the west coast, but I know that housing is ridiculously expensive and nobody wants to build housing. Atleast in the San Francisco area. Anyways, crazy idea. Why not build a parking garage with a few amenities to cater to the

It will probably last in my opinion. Just look at cars. They are, for the most part, commodities too. A lot of people pay 2x-10x the price of the entry model. They all get you to from point A to point B. People will pay it, but possibly a

Home Depot does price match, but you do have to watch out for the carve outs. I most recently tried to save quite a bit of money on my kitchen appliances. However, they only price match "in stock" merchandise. They had to order th

Good point. I'd say a good percentage actually use their garage for thei car. Others just fill them up with stuff/junk.

OT: if the consensus is that self driving will eliminate ownership then what will people do with their garages? Will there be a market for converting them into more useful space. Will houses be built without garages? Will we need driveways?

True. I don't do enough international travel to indicate it one way or another. Just thought it was strange. This is only 1 small data point where many are needed in order to see any trending.
