minus-squareLazylazycat@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·7 hours agoUgh, same here in the UK. I live on a tiny road and have to watch my neighbour struggle to parallel park every day. Why does he do this to himself? He looks miserable.

minus-squareCapricorn_Geriatric@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·2 days ago500% import duty is way too much. 80% is enough. High one-time taxes are not a good idea. Rather dilute them into 8 seperate yearly taxes. A curb weight tax of 40% sounds reasonable. A fuel inefficiency penalty of 25% also sounds good. At least a 15% tax on anything shorter than 1 meter being invisible from the cabin is also very warranted. That’s 3 of 8. Additionally, whenever a truck is involved in a crash treat it disfavourably. That should drive up insurance premiums. So with my 80/80 tax mix they’d actually pay 880% tax in the first 10 years of ownership with 3 basic taxes.
minus-squareDozzi92@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·3 days agoThere is hope! I convinced my neighbor to downgrade his f150 into a Tacoma… I can’t stand big cars.
