Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Those '90s civics still puttering around finally gonna get put in the grave.
Dude you could run those things off dirty vegetable oil and they'd still go. The only things more indestructible than a '90s Civic is a Corolla from any year.
Did the US get diesel Civics? That would be surprising to me. Petrol engines don't really run off veggie oil AFAIK. But really, the main thing E15 is going to cause is fuel leaks, which aren't impossible to fix by any means.
However, as for
I'm going to have to respectfully disagree because those things barely exist anymore on the roads here where they salt the roads. The tech is strong, the chassis is not. I don't know when the Japanese figured out galvanization, but as of the mid 00s, they still had issues (not just a single make or model either. Mazda was the worst, but Toyota and Honda still rust). I haven't really inspected any newer Japanese cars. I think Toyota did something better with Lexus branded vehicles, as those tend to have less rust... Or perhaps the owners just took better care of the more expensive vehicles.
Or a Hilux. Or a 90s Nokia.
They'd probably just go through a fuel pump and a fresh filter and then be fine lol.
