Without a good alternative it's hard to change travel habits.

"Train travel needs to be made more attractive. People worry about missed connections and getting stranded somewhere — and rightly so. You can't simply travel from Amsterdam to Spain on one ticket from one railway company. If you miss a connection, you're often stuck. Booking a flight is much easier than finding out which train connection works in #Europe."

The Tesla Cybertruck is considered the biggest flop in automotive history, according to experts.

What is there to like? Tesla is owned by a Nazi. The truck is non-compliant with safety standards in many overseas markets and off-putting to many would-be buyers. An unpainted stainless steel vehicle just doesn’t have that much broad traction. Also, it looks like a big trash bin.

Changed the oil in my vehicle (out in the driveway), just to remind myself how to do it. (Usually take it to the mechanic...). Need to remember what getting oil everywhere and on myself is like, LOL. Pretty simple, but always a pain to get the oil filter off and on and whatnot.

Did discover at some point the pack rat around here deposited a bunch of leaves in my air filter. Need to go buy another one (the guy at the auto place asked, and I didn't think I needed it... oops).

🤘 Ok. The #show, skill and how audio was mixed and everything, definitively #ThunderMother was the best. But I liked the first band #Vulvarine best! 🎸 I had to buy the #shirt after I had seen the #VW #Volkswagon T2 #Bulli on it. 🤩 And they told me that's their actual tour bus!!! Wow. That's so great! So I got the shirt. Similar print as on that poster here! #ClassicCars #Automobiles #Metal #music #concert #Cars #Volkswagen #VanLife #Vanfluenzer
🖋️ Edit: They drive an orange #Mercedes #Sprinter. 🤷

You don’t see many of these in the UK. A 57 Plymouth I believe, but with harsh sodium street lights I’m not sure if it was yellow or white. I’m sure I remember reading most left the factory in white, but thankfully it wasn’t red and driving itself…

A Plymouth (similar to Stephen King’s “Christine”) possibly yellow, in three quarter view. The grill and lights to the right.
