Back in the late 70’s Mrs. j went to the mall in our area with her never married aunt (great person but she had her ways) many times for shopping and lunch. Anyway, one day Mrs. j sees her aunt pull into the driveway and goes out onto the porch to tell her to move to the other side so she could get her car out of the garage. Her aunt said, “you always drive, so I’ll drive this time”. They come to a 4-way stop intersection at the mall and her aunt goes right through without stopping. Mrs. j said she damn near past out. Then she said after she caught her breath, “hey, didn’t you see the stop sign”? Her aunt said, “yeah but that was a 4-way intersection”. To which Mrs. j said, “SO” and her aunt said, “somebody had to go first, so I went first”. 😳 I guess that’s how they did it in the Burgh where her aunt lived. That was the first and last time her aunt drove to the mall.

Meanwhile son drove to where the car was on side of I75 and they called AAA. Was there within minutes. I think DIL knew that they had road service on the State Farm bill, so why not use it was her thinking.
AAA changed and put donut spare on front. Per my urging about what tire brands to buy, they ordered replacement Michelins at a local regional chain, and the guy called when the tires were there that same morning. Dropped car and had road hazard and an alignment added per instructions.
But the shop charged $12 for sanitizing the car. I don't recall the company charging $12 to sanitize car when I took my Cobalt in for tire rotation under the lifetime purchase agreement.
Original tires were Hancook brand and DIL said there didn't grip well on water and snow last year. The better tread rubber on the Michelins should do better. The Hancook tires may have gotten low on pressure at one point, damaging the sidewall which eventually failed even though the tire pressures had been corrected.
The Hancook tires from 2008 on Cobalt developed hard tread with little stickiness and lots of road noise after about 30-40% worn. So I had them replaced for Imid, Jr., to take the car back to Columbus with him years ago.

That was 15 years ago and that kid is probably your next Uber driver.

To extrapolate, on my PC laptop Windows 10, Edge always runs in the background and sometimes has a page that shows because of its thinking that I clicked on something like the information links on the lockpage at startup. I have never changed Windows 10's default browser. I just use whichever one I want. The conclusion might be there's something else operating that doesn't show that's blocking the pull down menu's operation--even something in the background.

Virtually every time I go to Costco or even to a regular store or just being on the road, I wonder how these people were able to pay for a membership or even put gas in the car, morons morons everywhere.

In the last election I didn't vote in one race as one candidate was corrupt, crooked as a dogs hind leg and evil to the core, the other made the first look like a saint. I declined to cast a vote for that race. Remember voting for the lesser of two evils is still voting for evil.
So yes not voting is equivalent to none of the above.

Maybe people need to grow up and learn that there is seldom a really good choice on the ballot - it is all about the lesser evil. To paraphrase South Park, you get to choose between a [non-permissible content removed] and a turd sandwich.
Multiple people with multiple opinions.

I’m sure there is some sort of CYA going on here, but this is the stupidest recall notice I’ve ever been a part of.
In short....”if your car catches on fire, don’t stay in it. Get out of it. We don’t know how to fix it, but take it somewhere and let it burn.”

Wondering if this could have been prevented if the FIA used SAFER barriers like NASCAR.

I recall when I was younger, my uncle's Taurus self-immolated while parked in his driveway. It was an out of warranty car, I think insurance handled it (he replaced it with a LeSabre).
