True, but you can’t disregard the power of the Internet. I guarantee that if the Alaskan oil spill happened two years ago, it would be an utter shitshow as compared to the 90’s. It’s one thing to hear the stories and occasionally see pictures in magazines, newspapers, and stories; and qiute another when we can be…

*Sergio expresses disbelief and outrage*

Lol. I’m interested to see how this turns out in relation to the Ford Exploder tire fiasco. I know GM gets more press because of the Internet age, but it would be interesting to see which one is viewed as worse down the road...

Since you didn’t elaborate, I’m assuming you came for the black turtleneck hate, and stayed for the rest of the comment... ;)

The NHTSA was humiliated by its congressional review, and have to show how they regulate and enforce the auto industry. Is it a little unfair that FCA is first on the guillotine list? Possibly. Gotta start somewhere, and since the NHTSA hates black turtlenecks*, Sergio gets the crackdown

We can still get drunk...

Supplier issues are going to bite them in the ass for a loooong time...that’s one of the benefits of bringing as much manufacturing/product in house as you can, to avoid this. Ideally, you want raw material to come in from the mill or merchant, and come out a finished product. Realistically...you try to minimize…

Now that ladies and gentlemen, is a practical and very visual application of Momentum. And how hard it is for trains at speed to stop.

I just got sucked into watching a 3.33 minute video of Doug driving a Skyline on curvy roads...not me doing it, just Doug. I’m not mad, but rather impressed. It’s like I got Rick Rolled...

This what I honestly expected once I read the title and especially after I read who wrote it...

Hey, it’s a step in the right direction. With the size of governmental bureaucracy, the fact that we might see any movement should be viewed as a good thing.

Doug’s version of “knowing the dimensions of your car”... More to the point, I want to see corner flags on Doug’s Hummer...

My thoughts on making car-based reality TV shows better...make it real....

It also comes down to the convention of how we say the date. I hear very few people around the world say it is “the 16th day of July, 2015”. It makes us sound like we are back in the Medieval age, “ On the 16th day of July, the 2015th year of our Lord and Saviour...”.

If you ask a friend that know their way around a car for help on yours, be prepared to give them food, booze, drinks, or a return favor. Sometimes a combination of more than one if the problem is big/bad enough.
