re: A Question For Jeep Wrangler Baws
Posted by krones on 9/12/22 at 8:23 am
I had a two door V6 and traded in for the four door PHEV. Two door is more fun to drive, but has very little space. When using the gas engine, mileage is comparable.
Unpopular opinion around here, but I’ve been really happy with the PHEV. Most of my trips are under 20 miles and I get free chargin...

1) Never get less than 12 hours sleep
2) Never play cards with a guy whose first name is a city

You stick with that, then everything else is cream cheese....

re: Man drives off with gas pump attached to this car with predictable results

One time I was getting gas and the guy at the next pump over pulled away with the nozzle still in his truck. It broke away like it is supposed to, but the guy stopped and realized what he had done.
Being too embarrassed to admit his mistake to the cashier, he started trying to reach up and reconn...

You will find plenty of anecdotal evidence on this board and elsewhere that college isn't worth it, but just about all the actual studies on the topic show that a college degree is absolutely worth it. There are outliers for sure, and if you can't make it through to a degree in the end you're not go...
