    I live in a small rural town in Ireland. I'm seeing more and more ridiculously huge pickups that are simply too big for the parking spots.
    They're fucking awful

        He has to hide the back of his hand, because the super healthy old man is not so healthy.

        How does a human skin turn green? Is he so old and expired that fungus is forming under that?

            Reciprocal tariffs on American cars honestly sounds like a pretty good idea now...

              A lot of Japanese cars are made in the US.

              So do several German manufacturers. Most of the BMW X cars are assembled in America.

                American cars are already near impossible to sell in Europe. Terrible fuel economy, to large and bad turning radius for European cities with small roads, things like cyber trucks and other oversized pickups are probably not road legal because of pedestrian crash safety regulations.

                    Nobody wants American cars. I guess up until recently Tesla was the exception, but that was already changing before Musk decided to go full mask off.

                          So what defines a “foreign” car? BMW builds the X3 in South Carolina and VW builds their SUVs in Tennessee. However Ford builds the Bronco in Mexico. So which one will be tariffed?

                            There's one in the garage of my apartment building. All i can think about when I see it is what a giant douche bag you have to be to buy something like that while living in a big city.

                                The Trump admin is doing its best to make sure that the US can no longer be measured. Those measures hit climate research and economics research both.

                                  So Ford gets taxed while the “import” brand doesn’t. Another well thought out policy by this administration. My “foreign” car was built in Alabama.

                                    Toyota builds Camry, Avalon, RAV4, and Lexus in Georgetown, KY.

                                    If it means foreign brands, that will fuck over a lot of red state workers, if he means foreign built, maybe not.

                                        I think IV catheters can cause skin discoloration, and the hand is a common place to put catheters. And he's an old bag of shit, he's probably in and out of hospitals as often as golf courses.

                                          Is the tariff on cars, or parts? Or have they not figured that part out yet?

                                          It's on both, but just learned that apparently it won't impact the parts that going back and forth across the border. It looks like those additional tariffs are still planned on April 2nd.
