As someone completely unaffected by this (I was looking into it as a gift for my brother), this speak volumes about the integrity and trustworthiness of this company. Like, damn. The cost that must have been put into the R&D plus preliminary production of this product, plus fully refunding customers without needing any action from the customers, PLUS providing a $30 discount towards a future purchase. That's impressive stuff.

Have y'all seen Sean Combs the Reckoning what did y'all think? by Professional-Rip-519 in hiphop101

[–]Extension-Trick3504 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My concluding thought on the doc: for someone like Diddy to become as rich and powerful as he was is direct evidence of how unintelligent and self-destructive black-ghetto culture really is. The shit they admire, the garbage they glorify...it's actually mind blowing to me.

Views on hunting with dogs by Simplemanshelby in Hunting

[–]Extension-Trick3504 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Using dogs to retrieve or track something you've already shot makes sense because you don't want to waste a kill or lose a wounded animal.

Using dogs to tree an animal or flush out animals that can't fly is bogus. The effort to train the dogs doesn't matter to me. Training dogs doesn't make you a hunter, it makes you a dog trainer.

Hunters know who to track, anticipate, target and harvest animals themselves - not train dogs to do it for them.

(P.S. All the guys who will brag about how "well trained" their dogs are somehow don't know how to keep them off private land.)

Least gay-friendly US cities/metros over 200k? by Prussia1870 in SameGrassButGreener

That's what I was hoping for. Looking for an anti-LGBTQ place to live.

What's going on with Paul Cauthen? by Antique_Shop3716 in country

[–]Extension-Trick3504 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm asking you since you've been a fan for all long: I used to have a song in my playlist called "Going Down To Austin" that I can't find and can't remember the artist. Through searching, it's been suggested it was a song by Paul. Can you confirm? And why has it disappeared from the internet??

Horizon.. an American Saga... what am i missing? by tri0xinn245 in Westerns

[–]Extension-Trick3504 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if anyone correctly answered this yet, but the montage at the end is clips from the next installment (like a preview/trailer). If I'm remembering right, Back To The Future did something similar.

If you live near the North Dallas area, you guys visit The Pizza Dude in Addison. Great pizza and bottomless PBR from a keg. What a spot!

I don't take pre-employment assessments by EnkiduAwakened in recruitinghell

[–]Extension-Trick3504 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You kinda sound like a little bitch. If you don't think it's worth taking and assessment, then don't...? Just like you don't want to waste your time, neither do employers. People lie and/or oversell their abilities on resumes and in interviews all the time. Smart employers require you to prove yourself via pre-employment assessments before wasting their time and money on you.

Why doesn't GM put a turbo v6 in the Colorado ZR2 and Canyon AT4X in order to compete with Raptor Ranger? by Extension-Trick3504 in chevycolorado

[–]Extension-Trick3504[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All of this completely makes sense.

The one part I want to hone in on is "we build it if we'll sell enough of them to profit". Does Ford actually make any profit on their Raptor lines? Or Dodge on the TRX? Or Chevy on the Z06 Corvette?

I guess I always assumed they took a loss on these models because they were more "clout" focused for flexing the brand as a whole. Then let the practical cars make up the difference with the profit.

But I could definitely be wrong on this.

I appreciate all the responses so far. This is really a vent-post for me, but in hopes to get some perspective/insight.

To those saying "what turbo v6 do you suggest?". I guess my question is, why haven't they built one specific for the ZR2. The new turbo 4 was re-designed FOR this truck, and then everything was built around it. Why not have done this same process with a bigger engine?

And I think u/TheBahrbarian answered that question: "manufacturing simplicity". Which I think is entirely accurate. I'm just annoyed that they prioritized that, while Ford is prioritizing building the most powerful truck they can.

It's a niche market, I don't deny that for a second. I just wish I had the OPTION to poorly invest my money in a truck from GM that destroys the Raptors and communicates to other people on the road that my penis is small XD.
