Job!

[andrew krok, regrettably @andrewkrok]

Come work with me (and several others) at @CARandDRIVER! We're currently on the hunt for a technical editor. Come join the best data-driven reviews operation this side of the solar system.

Scope the posting over here: https://t.co/0prVRoAsVg

@andrewkrok Definitely not conspiracy thinking. Pricing wonks found out they'd get n% more profit this way and split the options. It's trim-level packaging strategy (which Honda is exceptional at) spread across brands. A+ capitalism. C- at being good for customers.

[Mike Magrath @Mike_Magrath]

@reymiguel Yeah. That’s fine. I’d rather the gate be in the lane than me.

[Mike Magrath @Mike_Magrath]

Right-hinged tailgate for usdm from an American oem...🥴

[Edmunds @edmunds]

The 2024 GMC Hummer SUV EV handles better than the truck, looks better than the truck, and has some truly impressive off-road capabilities. Just don't ask about efficiency. https://t.co/xjA6gEvsu9

@bypatrickgeorge @RoadandTrack Was it capitalism? I bet it was capitalism.

@MrMikeGuy And chilton publications for cars you don’t now or ever will own.

Sure, “already” is an odd choice for something that’s been around for +10 years, but WSJ pushing #savethemanuals is still a win.

[Mike Magrath @Mike_Magrath]

@TheSmokingTire @jakedcalves this one was your fault, right? 😂

[Mike Magrath @Mike_Magrath]

@TheSmokingTire Sport Compact Car’s “Flat black Terror” is way forgotten/underrated as an inspiration to this trend, too! Sure it was rattle-canned but it made the cover of SCC which was _huge_ at the time!

[Mike Magrath @Mike_Magrath]

Like I said, more pink cars.

[Bring a Trailer @Bringatrailer]

Sold: 1992 Porsche 911 Carrera RS Clubsport for $401,000. https://t.co/C4Ue5YktqD

[Mike Magrath @Mike_Magrath]

The world needs more pink cars.

[Mike Magrath @Mike_Magrath]

@andrewkrok Congrats!

[Mike Magrath @Mike_Magrath]

Update: despite everything, automotive dealer model/racket still awful. This tweet brought to you by Raptor shopping. 👍

One time I got stuck in a McLaren (senna or 675?) because I couldn’t figure out how to get it into park. I could’ve used this car man.

[Alanis King @alanisnking]

There is a man in my Twitter mentions saying “If you ever want to get it out of first gear, call me sweetie” about a Lamborghini Huracan. I wonder if he knows it’s an automatic

[Mike Magrath @Mike_Magrath]

Maybe having sold a production pickup is the qualifier?

Pro tip: if you have F1 TV just press that globe icon and you never have to hear James hinchcliffe again! Weekend saved.

[Mike Magrath @Mike_Magrath]

@24limes Oh yeah. Charging loss not calculated and gas here is sub 3.50 now. Maybe this will mean more EV inventory soon!

[Mike Magrath @Mike_Magrath]

At the new rates vs current gas prices, my Rav4 PHEV, which gets 3.4 miles/kWh and 38mpg when not plugged in at all, will be 34% more expensive to run on electrons. Until winter when it does 2.5 kWh/m. Then it's 50% cheaper on gas. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Wednesday, the National Grid filed its new electric rates to the Massachusetts Department of Public Utilities. Starting on Nov. 1 National Grid customers will have to pay $293 per month for six months. https://t.co/OPYgraGiRs

@24limes Shit maybe I mathed wrong. Looking to be .47+-
