      @@melvynpietak8444 legit reasons it hasn't been changed are 1st, most high-school educated Americans are competent with using the metric system and could if they wanted to and most socket sets you buy in north America include both imperial and metric tools. 2nd, the logistical nightmare that would be switching things such as the US international highway system, rail system, ect. from imperial to metric would be extremely expensive and time consuming to the point that it would make no sense to change things from the way they are and confuse travelers durring the transition as well as basically toss tax dollars into a near unending pit of updating.
      Edit(also the way someone reads degrees is irrelevant to the issue since the only application where it matters is in science fields where Celsius is already used. Kelvin is superior to both tho)

    The Finnish Samara ad is peak eighties but I think it would’ve worked back then. The tone is hyper stylized, whimsical and fun, but she’s also showing the room in the trunk, the practical-ness of moving luggage and friends and maybe doing her makeup in the big mirror. Not sure how big a market this was, but dozens of 1980s Finnish women probably loved this ad...

    The two cars at 12:50, have Swedish license plates. Both are de-registered, long time ago. Either exported or more likely scrapped. The numbers have been re-issued, EWN 722 is a truck trailer registered in 2017 and BHL 619 seems to be some kinds of horsebox registered in 2008.

    For anybody curious, the Sport Ka "cat" advert involved the car with an open sunroof. The cat walked along the roof, then popped its head through the open sunroof. The car then shut the sunroof on the cats neck. You can imagine the rest.

Which if we didn't factor the population density of the cities on the east coast, would give an average like 1 person per square kilometer. The rest of the 138 million Russians are in Europe. So stfu, Russia is European. Eastern European, but still European. Hell even the Asian parts of the country have European traditions and stuff.

    Back to the Volkswagen commercial : In Europe there is this belief that buying a car from an old person who has owned it for the majority of his life is like the best deal you can make. Why you ask? Simple - because we believe that the old person barely drove their car and being very gentle and caring while doing it. In a nutshell you get a a car in a great shape with very low (real) mileage.
