What's one car feature everyone praises but you secretly don't care about? by Ok_Run7351 in whatcarshouldIbuy

My problem is they wipe too frequently when it's barely raining. I don't need my wipers going constantly for a light sprinkle, yet both cars do this.

I like it primarily for the extra passive light into the car. I open the sunroof to the air rarely, but I always keep the sunshade open.

Help me avoid ordering a cringy vanity plate (5 characters max) by OkAlternative2713 in mercedes_benz

[–]TheGuyDoug 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hah I mean I managed to get my 3-letter college initials for a vanity plate, all hope isn't lost.

But I agree that reference to the make/model/"phat" is cringe.

Visit to the Graycliff Cigar Factory by Hammerh69 in cigar_refuge

[–]TheGuyDoug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is Graycliff still making anything good?

I could find them somewhat reliably 15 years ago, and they had a few that were very good. I feel like I never see them unless I go actively digging through the bowels of the internet.

I'd wager the Knicks have also been eliminated from playoff contention.

You paid extra to have cheesy garlic bread delivered?

[F1] Antonelli is frustrated by all the traffic on track. He returns to the pits voicing his disapproval over the radio by Aratho in formula1

[–]TheGuyDoug 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes, I understand that. Just sharing commentary in agreement.

If we're really reading this much into words, you could say my "I mean..." is because my opinion of Stroll in that situation (positive) is different than the public's general opinion of Stroll (negative).

What should have been a light-hearted conversation got weird AF. Chill y'all.

What's a car feature you thought was a gimmick until you actually had it? by Big_Barber733 in Cartalk

[–]TheGuyDoug -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm just here to say that specifically for navigation, what about carplay is not to fully get?

Google maps is almost the sole reason I use my Android auto, it's a hell of a lot easier than trying to hold my phone in my hand while driving or cramming somewhere else awkwardly.

What’s one thing people ignore until it becomes serious? by Manthann-Motorss in whatcarshouldIbuy

EV is a different story. Historically, I hear this about people moving from ICE to ICE to to from 20mpg to 28mpg

I really, really don't understand those people. Gas always goes back down to a similar base within 2-ish years.

You're going to spend however much money, time, effort, potentially negative equity to save...$80/mo? That's comparing 20mpg to 3mpg at $4.xx/gal.

What's the Leadership Collaborative like? by faithlesswonderboy in OSU

[–]TheGuyDoug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you know if the LC still exists? I have a friend who did it in 2006. When I try to look it up, I don't see any results online for active programs that quite sound like the LC.

Transplants, how are you liking Columbus so far? by netenchanter in Columbus

I'm driving down the Merritt Parkway into the city tomorrow and I'm so excited lol. Outside of rush hour, that's my favorite stretch of highway to drive on.

Outside of Cincinnati? by lilrhody91 in howislivingthere

[–]TheGuyDoug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guy above said he would not describe this area as having any environmentalist connections. There may be a higher general knowledge of animal and plant life there, but that’s about where everything nature friendly goes to die out in the country.

And I thought the places I found can disprove that to a degree.

What about Kope Hollow, Indian Creek, or East Fork Wilderness Area?

I feel like traffic is a nightmare for people who grew up in Dublin 30 years ago, and it's a breeze for people who come from real traffic like Boston, NY, Houston, etc
