    did that come with a dental dam?

Overall Toyota's have been incredibly reliable for my family, so I'm gonna keep riding the winning hand.
      I've had a few Toyotas in the past. All excellent, durable vehicles. But, I will never purchase another Toyota. They've tied themselves financially to seditionists and pretend nobody is noticing.

              Not really. Almost all of the companies that "quit" because of 1/6 or restrictive voting laws started up again after a few months. They don't care they never did they just hated the headlines in the moment.

              Toyota is one of dozens...including ones people will never live without. Hell Di$ney was until recently and we both know they will again as soon as DeSantis shuts his mouth...

                There's objectively different levels. $1 is different than $1,000,000.

                    However you choose to justify it is your business...they are all giving way more than you or I would ever so we are all objectively frauds.

                    • I've been fighting for months to get my HOA management company to replace a light that one of their tenants (NOT mine) broke. Today they sent me an angry letter saying "your broken light is unsightly and we're going to charge you until you fix it."

                      Come the Revolution, HOAs go up against the wall after the bankers but before the lawyers.

                      • For those of you interested in I-bonds...the interest rate is over 9% right now locked in for 6 months.

                          Y'all have sold me on this. I bought some this morning. Says that rate is locked in for 6 months. So basically, if I buy some more over the next 6 months, I'll get that 9.62% interest rate?

                            I’d like to buy some for my kids but wish they had the old fashioned paper ones. It’s probably insane but I would feel better about those for whatever we reason.

                              I still have some of the EEs on paper. I have one that was my first Christmas present. Worth the $100 or whatever it is to not have to give that away (I'm sentimental, sue me). Others are still maturing.

                                Correct. You get six months of that rate from when you buy, then six months of whatever the next rate is. You have to keep it for at least a year and if you cash it before five years you forfeit three months interest. Even with that, tell me where else you can get a guaranteed 7% return and sign me up.
