Simply not true. I've had my Prius up to at least 104 on the Turnpike, but that's as high as the number goes. I had no trouble keeping up with little sporty cars that regularly rip along the Turnpike. As for pickup, there's a power button that lets me lay rubber, but kills the gas mileage.

That's not exactly true. We know he's desperately seeking out the attention of other men for hours every day which I think we can surmise the meaning.

i think this story might show how wrong some analysts are about the causes for market drops. the oil drop was blamed on a price war between the russians and the saudis. which, honestly, made no sense at the time, but the price of oil was dropping like a rock, so it seemed to be real.

i turns out, i think the real reason for the drop was that they knew we were fixing to shut down most every country in the world for a month or two and the need for oil was going to plummet.

I'm just laughing at the people who said it wouldn't go on under $2 again because the government wouldn't let it.

When I’m out in my Jeep, I love marginalizing the dumbfucks in their electric and hybrid vehicles. At red lights, I give them a look from the corner of my eye until we make eye contact, at which point I give a nice chuckle and turn away

Bingo Stapes is another person that reads Biker like a book. It's so obvious and pathetic. I can't believe more people don't get disgusted enough about this chump to tell him the truth like Stape did. Nice job Stapes. Keep up the good work. Maybe I'll vote for Biden now.

apparently Trump phoned a news outlet and said that he had just gotten off the phone with Putin and Saudi Arabia and they had agreed to pull back production by 10% for a while. Evidently oil prices are going up, oil stocks are surging and the DJIA is responding well.

I think that was inevitable, as oil production is far exceeding demand. I read that there are issues about not having much storage capacity left
Honestly that's pretty much what surprised me about the whole story. Sometimes market moves seem so juvenile. They are already producing more than 10% too much oil, so what difference does cutting production by 10% make? But, the markets are almost always right, it just always makes me wonder what they know that we don't. We only ever get to hear what the media tells us.

It was kind of like when this virus thing first hit the markets. Why were airline stocks dropping like hot cakes back in February? It didn't make any sense. Media was giving us reasons like "strikes, boeing delays, travel restrictions, etc."

Part of that 73 mpg is their gasoline isn't diluted by alcohol. And emissions standards.

They didn’t allow them because they violated ever clean air law around. So VW cheated the system, got caught and only had to pay a $7 billion fine.

They use DEF. I have 2 VW TDI's and they are awesome vehicles. It's sad they won't be selling VW diesels in the US ever again.
how often do you have to add DEF and what reminds you?

Our diesel trucks shut down if they run out of DEF. A "feature" of the system.

I add to my Golf every 10000 miles or so. The Passat less often. There is a message that flashes saying to refill when the range is down to 1500 miles. I average about 43 mpg with both cars.
oh shit, that's not bad. I thought it was like every other tank or something. I think my tractor regen's about every 30 hours or so. I never really clocked it. At least I don't have to add anything.
