And even at intersections they usually are given priority over cars.

Vaccines exist. COVID is not a thing anyone I know worries about anymore. I keep getting surprised on the internet.

Commenting from Germany: the amount of Festool I have seen on jobsites is really quite high. Especially due to their good dust collection.

Same goes for cisfats opposed to transfats

Americans somehow can't imagine using any other car than a pickup truck for transporting things.

No, never.

Why shouldn't you? The car is rated and tested for it.

The fact car infrastructure was built in cities is usually already based on a loss for others. This is just taking it back.

The Cupra Born I drove the other day (don't own a car and rely on carsharing and rentals for my business) while doing deliveries for a catering event did this. It was really annoying driving in narrow streets with it braking for parked cars.

Have you never seen waste containers on wheels?

You really don't need new fridges that often, the couple times you do just put them on boards on casters and shove. If you can't: ask your neighbors, it's a good bonding experience.

Germany here: the speed limiter in regards to tires is a little sticker.

Multimodal transport is amazing. Ride bike to station - ride a fast train - ride from station to destination.

Why? What do I need a phone for while driving, that shit is distracting.

Seems like a huge failure in their nutrition education.

Drink water for your hydration, everything else is a treat and not hydration.

This thread clears up to me why so many people have digestive issues and/or obesity.

I don't understand pick up trucks, unless you do landscaping or farming. In a van your shit won't get stolen as easily.

I don't know about Japan but here in Europe I just see tradesmen, needing large quantities, getting their materials delivered on a pallet from a semi-trailer.

Most use vans though for carrying their equipment, since you usually don't want your gear sitting outside, like it would on a pickup truck.

So you buy a stupidly large car to tow a stupidly large camper. I see.

GPS Nav: that is a feature a ton of cars have. Else, reading signs and basic orientation is a godsent.

Music: Why do I need my phone out where it can distract me, when bluetooth works fine from my pocket. And if a car doesn't have bluetooth radio works fine.

I think you just like texting while driving.
