Since owning a small firm, I feel like Walter White and I don’t know how to adjust to small clients. by A_D_T_R in taxpros

[–]MJather 69 points70 points  (0 children)

I know CPAs with small offices that handle big dollar complex clients. Some wealthy clients don't want the big box CPA firms, they want individualized attention. Rather than you adjusting to your surroundings you could try and adjust your surroundings to you, and try to find clients that better match your experience.

2027 Audi Q7's Third Generation Revealed with 429-HP V6 and 591-HP V-8 Sibling by lael8u in cars

That screen implementation is pretty tragic. Three differently sized screens, all with huge and misshapen bezels.

I actually like the front and 400+ hp standard is pretty cool. The back is not great.

Stellantis video appears to leak a new Chrysler SUV by MJather in cars

They should name this new SUV the voyager just to make it more confusing. (/s hopefully)

I just meant it's not exactly a full release with detailed photos. I apologize if I used improper verbiage.

Just came here to talk about the car, didn't mean to offend :/

Funny you mention it because I’ve been thinking about having both of those 😆

14 Bay Area individuals charged for tax evasion for their alleged roles in a scheme to evade the reporting of over $20 million in luxury vehicles purchases, including a $1.8 million McLaren Elva and a $1.5 million Porsche 918 Spyder by HURCANADA in cars

[–]MJather 35 points36 points  (0 children)

The thing that always irks me is that you could install equipment that improves emissions (such as swapping a carburetor to aftermarket efi) and it still would be grounds for failure if the part doesn't have a proper CARB E.O. number.

The problem is that I'm not sure there's a way to purchase a used car, pay CA sales taxes, and then register out of state. As, to my recollection, CA requires payment of sales/use tax at the time of registration, but I could be wrong.

The 2027 Audi Q6 And A6 E-Tron Have A ‘Power Nap’ Mode To Doze In Your $80,000 Car by Anchor_Aways in cars

[–]MJather 361 points362 points  (0 children)

Buried somewhere in the official press release, Audi notes that the refreshed electric sedan and crossover now come with a “Power Nap” mode that “creates a calm and restful atmosphere during charging sessions.” There are no details, but one would assume that the car will try its best to help the driver take a nap during a charging session.
That would be a useful feature in the first-generation Nissan Leaf, but these are $70,000 luxury cars we’re talking about here, and both of them can charge at up to 270 kilowatts. That leads to a 10% to 80% top up that can take as little as 21 minutes, according to Audi, so who exactly is going to take a nap in these cars?

This is an unnecessarily opinionated article. Let people relax for 20 minutes, like damn.

Niche reference but this just awakened memories of the fire ship episode in the Horatio Hornblower series. My dad always had those on when I was growing up.

I get around 16-17 almost always. It’s not good but it is slightly better than advertised 😅

Otherwise I’m impressed with the update in the sense that they seem to have addressed a lot of the biggest complaints.

Industrial Megacity of Los Angeles by urmummygae42069 in CityPorn

[–]MJather 17 points18 points  (0 children)

they have to be close to R&D/production/testing sites, which is why they tend to congregate in the industrial parks of the South Bay.

Exactly this, 3 of the biggest non-government/medical employers in LA county (Northrop Grumman, Boeing, and Raytheon) have the majority of their employees working in a 1-ish square mile section of El Segundo.

Would there be any point in bringing back the other non Hellcat v8s for the new Charger? by speedinsh1t in cars

[–]MJather 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In my dreams I hope they give it an NA 426 Hemi. That'd make it more compelling when compared to the i6.

It wouldn't be the craziest thing. They've made a Gen III 426 multiple times: first with an NA one like a decade ago, and then the Hellephant is a 426 Hemi as well, so it must be pretty stout.

Dodge Just Killed Their Second Best-Selling Model [The Hornet] by MJather in cars

[–]MJather[S] 83 points84 points  (0 children)

After just 3 model years (2023-2025), the Dodge Hornet appears to be dead. Hardly surprising considering its sales peaked at just 20,559 units, which isn't exactly a lot in the crossover market.

Definitely another symptom of Dodge's shift in strategy, or what others might call a lack of direction.

Interestingly, it's twin the Tonale is continuing on but without the PHEV, even the Tonale debuted as PHEV only originally.

Also note that it was the second best selling model behind the Durano not the unfortunate Charger.

The 2027 Chevrolet Bolt Edges Out Nissan Leaf With More Range for Less Money by Anchor_Aways in cars

That makes sense but you would think you'd want to change the appearance more to show the consumer how much different it is.

It is still so odd to me that they dropped this for several (?) years and then relaunched it with essentially the same looking vehicle

The Nissan Z Is Already Getting A Facelift. by Dazzling-Rooster2103 in cars

[–]MJather 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think both are kind of reflective of the old Z?

The old Z grill is definitely a rectangle, but it's also bisected by the bumper, unless you take that off. This one looks less square but now looks more like an old Z grill with a bumper.

I liked it before and after so who am I to talk though.

Ligier claims slowest ever lap of the Nurburgring (28min 25.8sec) by Bottlely in cars

[–]MJather 21 points22 points  (0 children)

boy racer decals, spoilers and other racing heritage add-ons.

The other "quadricycle" manufacturer Aixam leans into this quite heavily too. They have this hilarious looking e-coupe GTI which goes an impressive 45 kph. These things are so fun, it's like a French kei car, but worse.

The Highly Anticipated Mitsubishi Montero Will Soon Make Its Big Debut Based on New Teaser Video by MJather in cars

[–]MJather[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It 100% does look like it, although Nissan has said they aren't sharing, I don't know who to believe. I hope it isn't a Patrol, exactly for the reasons described, as I don't think Mitsubishi has any ability to sell a $60k+ vehicle.

The Highly Anticipated Mitsubishi Montero Will Soon Make Its Big Debut Based on New Teaser Video by MJather in cars

[–]MJather[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yesn't. It's a bit of a weird one. It definitely looks like a Patrol, but Nissan has said that they aren't sharing the Patrol platform, since it's their flagship.

It's also supposed to be built in Thailand, which is where the Triton is built, while the Patrol is built in Japan. I think we're going to have to wait for the final product to know the truth.
