“Former” is appropriate. But it really explains the danger here. He’s got experience both professionally and in personal life.

French brands are banned in the USA lol.

I got a 2024 escape as a loaner vehicle and drove it around for over a week. It’s literally the worst vehicle I’ve ever driven with respect to driving feel. It felt like I was driving a schoolbus. It had such poor acceleration and handling; sticker price was like 70K, and I wouldn’t even pay 20K for one. Also, it was like 60$ to fill the tank. Like why lol.

This is the way. I can’t tell you how much it hurts me when I see an obese cop.

Practicality-wise though, if the police have recruitment issues now though, finding recruits with a PhD will be impossible. People really overestimate how many PhD’s are out here in the wild.

This is legitimately one of my favorite television episodes ever. Like, across all shows. It’s perfect in every way and such an amazing time capsule from the 90s.

I think you mean 12 hours of screen on time. I don’t even think the 16ProMax gets that.

What a gigantic sigh of relief

Model 3 is the cheapest hatchback on the American market as of now. Buying new and not getting NACS will be painful in the coming years as well. I know Elon is a piece of shit, but it’s sad that exactly zero other manufacturers beat the model 3 price+range of any model on offer at the moment. Otherwise, there’s the base model Ioniq 5. End of List.

It’s such a shame that car manufacturers are so slow to innovate and compete with Tesla, but that’s where we’re at at the moment until Chinese cars are allowed to be sold stateside. I’d buy Chinese tomorrow if it were available here. Western car manufacturers are fucked; check out the Xaiomi Su7, BWD, etc.

Visit a AAA location and get an “international drivers permit”. It’s super easy and a good insurance policy for yourself. I highly doubt the police speak much English and aren’t corrupt, so it may save headaches. Also, watch out on neighborhood streets for potholes.

There’s no tax on buying property, however, property taxes are a percentage of your property’s assessed value. In my locality, the assessed value has a lot of deductions whereby my 400K house is only taxable as 32K in value, so I pay 3K/year in taxes.

I can’t speak for Florida, but if it’s like Arizona, their property is worth a lot more than 4M if their total tax burden is 90K/year.

These states in the US have zero sales tax: NH, OR, AK, DE, MT

Oh absolutely. However, the Leaf is bad for every other reason besides its acceleration speed though.

To be fair, that car was last sold new in 2017 according to my search. I was arguing for 2025 models.

I stand corrected lol. Nissan leaf is basically just stuck in 2014 in all honesty. They still even use the Japanese connector that no other car uses. It’s basically a glorified golf kart. I completely even forgot they sell them new still.

Everything else > bz4x/Soltera >> Leaf lol

If you buy a 2025 Leaf for over 20K, you got robbed lmao.
