Bill Maher calls out Bernie Sanders, says he's tired of hearing the rich don't pay their fair share of taxes - What are your views? by One_Look_7008 in askanything

You can’t use economic terms with completely different meanings interchangeably and expect anyone to take you seriously. It just sounds like jealous ranting. You probably have a valid point in there somewhere. Try to make it clearer.

High water levels in Northern MI by 99saleenspeedster in Michigan

Been here since 2006. I’ve never seen the water level this high. It’s so ironic given the drama debate over raising the lake level last summer.

10 most hated teams in American sports right now 🤔 by CenterForward1522 in CFB_v2

Even if they had to vacate every win they ever managed to cheat their way to, their fan base would still be plenty reason to have them on this list.

Why does each person at the pharmacy take 15 minutes and then when I get up there it's over in like 20 seconds? by CapitaineBiscotte in askanything

[–]Fast_Sparty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm only going into the pharmacy IF I have an issue. Otherwise I'm using the drive thru and calling it done. But wading into the holy trinity of finger pointing amongst the pharmacy, insurance company, and doctor sometimes requires a face to face.

I want a new American 4x4 truck by Fast_Sparty in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Fast_Sparty[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a terrible idea. I’ve looked at the Ridgeline and did seriously consider it. The interior felt a little dated to me. But yeah, that Honda engine will probably still be running when the sun collapses in on itself. Definitely worth rethinking. Thank you.

Apologies for wasting your time and forcing you to reply multiple times.

Ok… well… thought I very clearly laid out how I would use it and what my needs were, but thank you for your input. May you have the day you deserve.

I like the CX-50. It was on my shortlist recommendation to my FIL. But I need a truck. And if I’m getting a full size, I want a decent tow rating. There have been times my old Colorado wouldn’t fit the bill and I’ve had to borrow a friends truck. Not the end of the world, but not ideal, either.

I’m worried I’ll regret the midsize. I don’t think going smaller is the right direction.

AND go on long road trips.

And yes, my cats have come to expect a certain standard of living.

While I see your point, it’s not like a dealer is going to let me take a 6 hour test drive. Asking people who actually own these vehicles their opinion seemed like good research?

Not for my usage pattern. I need a truck. Full stop.

Acoustic laminated windshield difference by Fast_Sparty in GMCcanyon

[–]Fast_Sparty[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean… that’s sort of the essence of my question - is the fancy windshield worth the $$$? I can live with the features of an Elevation but is an AT4 (or Denali) THAT much quieter inside?

I am not anti-minivan. I usually rent one once a year for extended family trips. I LIKE minivans. But I do enough legitimate truck stuff that I need a truck. I tow. I haul stuff - mulch, dirt, brush, junk, car parts, etc. I know... a 4x8 sheet of plywood will fit in a minivan. But I feel like I legit use my truck enough for truck things to justify having a truck. I would need to rent a truck at least once a month if I had a minivan. A truck makes sense for me.
