    Don’t forget union busting and a general failure to pay workers enough to afford their products. Billionaires’ greed always fucks us over.

    End of the day, I can’t afford a new car no matter who makes it. $30,000 for a DRM’ed shitbox that will shut itself down if I’m 30 minutes late on a payment? No, thanks.

      Seriously. I keep telling my dudes to hold onto their 2005-15 models. Good safety tech, maybe a Bluetooth audio connection and no fucking microphones or cameras.

      As it stands I’ll just keep my 2012 bmw 128 running forever. It’s paid off, fun, and has never given me a problem.

              Yeah a lot of automatics have a manual shifting mode, but the crz actually has a 3 pedal manual option. It’s the only manual hybrid I’m aware of.
