I can’t be certain but think that’s some kind of gas cylinder the guy gets clocked with. LP, Natural Gas, or even hydrogen. Doubt it’s an electric car but could be wrong.
You over-estimate the salary by age 45 pretty grossly, but yes working for a Fortune 500 company does have its perks
How many little towns are going to look like Detroit, Anderson, Dayton, Flint.
Buen trabajo UAW!
Death spiral somewhat like failing restaurants do when clientele drops or costs rise
NAPA selling only USA made parts now? Or are they selling ANY USA made parts now? drip drip drip drip.
In ten years they won't be selling much of anything. EVs will kill the automotive service industry. I was shocked to see the difference in what was sold after being out of it for twenty years. No such thing as a tune-up anymore. Brakes, fluids, tires, and filters is all there is anymore, with a little bit of suspension stuff.
The local Kia dealer is building a new, state of the art facility. Fifteen bay service shop. In twenty years they'll be using the bays as a charging center.

Back to the days of not buying vehicles built on Mondays or Fridays?
Friday they're looking to the weekend and Monday they're recovering from the weekend.
My family owned a Ford dealership from the 30s until the 80s and that was the advice given.

God forbid the CEOs take a few million dollar pay cuts, along with the other uncoded salaried workers, to help profits.
Retired and sold the dealership rights. Ford demanded a computerized dealership system and the connection costs alone were over 29k/month at the time. I'm guessing that's why lots of small rural dealerships aren't around. He was selling around 55 new cars/yr in a town of around 250 people.
Yeah, that was commonplace. The Reagan recession didn't help much either.
In his particular situation, it helped that he had the only gas pumps in town and also had a robust used car and body shop business. Those stayed open for another 10 years.
Not sure about the Reagan Recession comment. Carter ran the economy into the ground. Interest rates were around 20%.
There were plenty of nights when I heard my folks talking about how we were on the verge of losing our farm despite both of them having full time jobs in town.
So, you’re now going for the record KC fine?
Better win that jackpot. Vinny, Vinny and Paulie are mobile.
As they say, and I’ve recently learned, FAFO.
You might want to check that. I got a mortgage in Spring, 1981 for 15% on a VA loan. I remember it very well because I closed on the day IU won the NCAA.
Hardly enough time for Reagan to increase interest rates.
