No it's doomed because it's a classic Elon Musk product: it was rushed into production, build quality is low and the aesthetics, which are unrefined and overwhelming, are used to mask an overall shoddy product that overpromised an

So this is a chintzy clip on pedal cover that serves to give an aesthetic illusion that the pedal is made of stainless steel? The Cybertruck is doomed. I'll be surprised if it still being made in 3 years.

Yes, especially all the delivery trucks that bring goods in from online retailers directly to the steps of buildings. I'd support a heavy tax on those, since they are the most dangerous of all the vehicles. Would also like to see a tax

Coffee really complements certain fats on my palate. Avocado and coffee taste like magic to me. Some cheeses too. Peanuts and almonds are good too. Bacon and eggs are fine, but not particularly special. I love coffee and a simple 80/20

Maybe, though the owner seemed legitimately annoyed with Booking.com having the listing still active. Their direct price ended up being 10-15% cheaper in any case.

Most full-sized trucks come with beds smaller than 6.5ft, that doesn't change the fact that most trades people drive full-sized trucks. Four wheel drive is more necessary in specific climates (before the snow tire scolds come in, I run

Yeah what a weird comment from GP. The refrain that no one needs a full-size truck, that they're mall crawlers or compensation for undersized you-know-what is common on this site but I've never seen it taken to the level that &quo
