May they never be allowed to return. Maybe other companies that don't try and do cover-ups will fare better.

Not sure how they didn't realize the other car with this name was so horrible that using that name will not be a good mental association. I towed vehicles and towed more garbage Buicks than anything for a few years there.

It's a box canyon where you are surrounded by what seems like an endless amount of enemies and zero cover where they are at differing levels of surrounding cliffs. I can get 6 or 7 of them before dying. I tried it so many times before giving up and moving on to the next game. I've had many of these over the years but this one stands out as the most impossible for me.

I've seen men break down crying at the end of shift over the tragedy they've seen on the street. Anyone who claims all cab drivers are bad hasn't a clue what they go through and who they really are. Props to this driver for giving her a free ride.

Being able to fold it up and take it in with me is the best part and the reason I got a scooter over an e-bike or riding my bike. Bike riding can only be for leisure personally as locking them anywhere is a huge risk these days and there is no such thing as a secure lock.

I try and ride mine on the road in bike lanes mostly but I've had California Highway Patrol at separate times tell me both to get off the road and onto the sidewalk and to get off the sidewalk and onto the road. Kind of hard to do the required when they can't make up their minds.

I had to stop for a minute because they kept bringing all their friends until there was a crowd of like 20 of them. Now it's back down to 3 main ones and the 1 eats out of my hand.
Where do you find builders that can do crooked? Do they rebuild it flat and then dig out beneath it again and shore it up like it was when that originally happened? I'd love to know how this is going to get built the same way.
