Previously owned an E36 M3 and it was an absolute blast to drive. Used to do some canyon carving in the LA area on Mulholland Highway.

I know it is not Oakland, but it involves California and humans correcting past environmental mistakes.

Can we all give a huge shout out to Always Sunny in Philadelphia for being great and being the one inspiration for so many memes?

There was a leak at a methane storage facility in the LA area. Several schools were provided air filters well after the event (methane is lighter than air). They had the filters for four months even though the methane levels were normal. Test scores increased.

Also, larger SUVs and trucks get preferential treatment under gas mileage standards. Someone more familiar can explain better.

FYI - my daily is a 24 year old Subaru.
