Cut him some slack - Ranger drivers are probably feeling pretty BTFO following the crushing defeat of their 25c-a-litre God-King.

Ozybargdias commented on AmEx Statement Credit: Get 20% Back at Participating Restaurants ($25 Cap Per Card) @ American Express Delicious Month Out
Do additional cardholders get their own $25 cap, or is the cap shared with the primary cardholder?

People want more affordable housing. The trouble is, those people don't want their own houses to become more affordable.

Not a bad price for a fantastic TV, but I got one for $2,254 (after cashback) on Black Friday 2023. A deal for the ages.

Definitely can - cocky Tesla drivers also. The only time I've met my match was against an Ioniq 5 N, which to be fair is a $111,000 car!

Yes. Those companies employ literally dozens of hard working Aussie battlers who are the heart and soul of our nation.

Agreed - pano sunroof and heated seats in particular don't make much sense for the Australian market.
