Not only that, I wouldn't even use one if they paid me. How did they convince people to pay to be spied on and advertised to?

As far as I can see from the documentary she was getting on a plane to go on vacation and her broker called her and advised selling $40,000 worth of some stock and she said ok.

I run it through my 1995-era photo editor that doesn't support all the metadata.

Maybe the majority don't want a 2 door truck but I and plenty of others do. All the interest in the Slate truck shows that.

How delicate do you have to be to deny reality so routinely?

Florida has some neat spring-fed rivers, cold and clear water. Kayaking with manatees is magical.

I recently helped a friend change a tire on a ~2014 F-150. The spare tire is under the bed of the truck, and we discovered to access it you unlock an access plug from the rear bumper, stick a rod in the hole (heh), and crank it to lower the tire down on a cable from a winch-type assembly.

I never knew that was a thing, how long have pickups been like that and do all pickups have spare tires on a cable/winch?
