Must be. The last two times my wife went to Stop & Shop they had no shopping carts because they keep getting stolen. There were only a few left for the whole store.

Aldi’s has plenty on the lot because folks want that quarter back.

This is a mystery deserving of a personal conclusion 😁😁

Could be 1,2, or 3 depending on the flow velocity.

One won't be filling up quickly since it's blocked off at the elbow you'd fill 7 before 1

Try not to fill any more cups on your way through the parking lot.

Solid.

@ms shrpshtr325 could help - viscosity could also contribute.

This is always a tricky comparison. When comparing the two types of bikes, the point to diminishing return on investment might actually be lower on a MTB. A $5000 motorcycle is pretty basic, but a $5000 MTB is pretty solid.


Look at the 2 bikes i'd buy right now :

​

​

2025 KTM 300 XC-W​

• Base MSRP:
  
  11,599.00 USD*
  
  
  
  

On the KTM i'd still add my build list which was about $3000 in extras.

Onthe pivot, my build list would add about $1100.


So in this case, the mtb would be $11449 and the moto would be $14599. So in my eyes the Ktm is still a fair bit more.
