one point I tried to buy a truck from Ford but I never could pull the trigger because I have a rule that I've got to be able to drive the vehicle or one like it before I'll purchase. And that isn't an option. You can't drive the truck you want to buy or even one like it because they just don't carry them on the lots. So I couldn't buy a truck.

Well time goes by and I've been driving an SUV for a decade because it's just convenient for everything. And I thought it was time for a smaller, fun American car. And so I tried to buy a Mustang and you got caught right in the squeeze, the unavailability of cars. But three months later it got delivered. And you know that's what it looks like. That's the interior. You can see it's red seats.

And I have to tell you this just as context. I'm not a car guy at all. You know what, when I used to think I might be as a kid, but as soon as I had enough money that I could afford a car that I wanted I kind of didn't care anymore. Like I realized there was something about the psychology of just owning nice things or something. So it wasn't like a real basic biological need or anything. So I've always just taken cars that did what I needed them to do.

Now I've had mostly driven BMWs. Here's the obnoxious part. If you can get over that fact I'm going to say some nice things about some American products here in a moment. So I've had experience with nice sporty high-end cars but I wanted an American car. And I'm just sort of in love with the way the Mustangs look, just the design. I think Ford in general has the strongest design maybe in the business right now. Maybe in the business. Would anybody agree with that? Depending on whatever class of car you're looking at, I feel like theirs are better just to look at. They just look better designed than other cars with similar. Definitely better than all the Japanese cars. There's not one Japanese car in my opinion that's competitive with Ford's line of just in terms of their look. Now that could be also a cultural thing. Maybe they just design better for American tastes.

But so I get this car and I didn't know what to expect because I had never driven a Mustang. And the first time I got in this thing, remember I'm not a car guy, I'm just not impressed by cars. And when people show me their new car I'm like ah, you know that's great yeah but I don't really care. I just have no interest in cars whatsoever. But I sat in this thing and I had an experience. Like I had an experience and it doesn't wear off.

And let me tell you this is the best way I can explain it. If you're in a well-designed German vehicle, the vehicle especially a BMW, it'll make you feel like there's no difference between the car and you. Like you just merge with a BMW. It becomes just part of your body almost. So if you're driving a BMW and you say I'm here but I want to be up there, you just sort of think it and the next thing you know you're up there. Like there's no friction between your thoughts and the execution. And so that's one thing that makes driving a BMW kind of thrilling because you feel something that's bigger than just driving if I can say it that way.

So I get in this car and I'd never felt this feeling before which was it was opposite of the feeling that the car was me. The feeling was I was partnering with a wild animal that temporarily at least was willing to do what I wanted it to do. Oh my god is that exciting. It is exciting. Like the feel of the engine, like the vibration, the color. I mean god they nailed this. I mean I can't say enough about this. So American engineering looking good.

All right, here's a good fake story from the Blaze. Now the Blaze is not responsible for the fakeness of the story so they were just reporting what the police reported. All right so the police have reported this. Allegedly there's a shocking cell phone video capturing the moment an armed robber shot at a man he had stopped on a busy Houston highway. But police say he later accidentally shot himself in the head during a struggle.

Now how do you interpret this story? Do you think that there was a man in Houston who accidentally shot himself in the head? Let me tell you how I interpret this story. Did I mention that it's in Texas? How would you interpret this story if it happened in Florida? Now if this happened in Florida the way I'd imagine it was, oh Florida man shoots himself in the head. That's just a Tuesday right? I mean I have to think that in Florida there's probably eight to nine episodes of people shooting themselves in the head accidentally per day. I mean that's Florida.

Less like Florida man always does funny things. But when you read this story in Texas about a man who pulled a gun on somebody else but in the heat of the struggle the man who pulled the gun accidentally shot himself in the head in Texas, well there's at least one other way to interpret this. And it goes like this. Somebody pulled the gun in Texas and it took three seconds for somebody else to put a bullet in his skull before he could pull the trigger himself. The police arrive. They see exactly what happened and they say oh did you take care of this? Yeah I just took care of that for you. You know the paperwork would be a lot easier if we just say he shot himself in the head. You can go on with your day sir. Thank you for your service. Thank you officer. Have a good day. Make sure to reload. You're a bullet short. Ha, I'll remember.

I don't know. I don't know. We're in
