Yeah... It's a little tiring seeing the same LatAm posts with fishy data and headlines.

Last time it was "Denver is more dangerous than Mexico City". Now it's "LatAm currencies are doing so well". These posts need more context to get out of the clickbait-zone.

And OP's response is always the same: "We just show you the data". Bruh, it is your responsibility to make sure the data is solid and doesn't take things out of context.

It's great to see data that shows improvement, but I associate suspicion with these posts instead of happiness now.

I work at one of those companies, and let me tell you, D&I is all they ever talk about. We even have a "chief diversity officer" lol.

And it's funny, because the diversity they're striving to achieve has already been accomplished years ago, and now they're just making it less diverse.

Cost of regular maintenance and tire replacements is much higher than a car. Chain, oil, tires, all these things have to be replaced after a while.

Cost of gear is super high too. I wouldn't be surprised seeing gear price tags with four digits.

Plus, motorcycles don't last as long as cars. A motorcycle with 30,000 miles is considered ancient, whereas that's still decently new for a car. So the amount you can drive before needing a new one is a lot shorter.

A lot of these costs aren't seen right away or aren't seen in the MSRP, which gives the illusion that bikes are wayyyy cheaper than cars.
