My concern about any mid-cycle update or anything of that nature is I’m guessing that the first thing Sony will drop will be the optical drive. All signs are pointing to the next generation of gaming likely going to digital-only and removing the optical drive will probably save Sony money (It also completely segments…

An attempt at a ‘luxury’ truck by Lincoln, combining mostly F-150 chassis underpinnings with body, interior, and engine from the Navigator. Less than 3,500 units were produced total, making it a very rare truck (I’ve seen a handful in the wild). The ‘bed’ was effectively unusable, as it had a full-time hard cover with…

As we just discussed, a similar V8-powered Ferrari will conceivably draw over one-hundred grand, a drop of just around 50 percent over its as-new price tag. I’ll ask again — what’s wrong with Maserati?

R34s are already well above Supras.

You’re not understanding how this works. “Keep YOUR politics out of video games; not mine.”

Dealers can drive cars on their MSOs (manufacturer’s statement of origin). Typically when you purchase a car the MSO is sent off to the lien holder to transfer to your state’s DMV to issue a title. You’re then given that title when you pay off the lien. Dealers can circumvent that process since they’re supposed to…

You won’t be behind. All you will have missed out on at this point is some of the past events and goodies you could have reaped from participating (free primogems mainly, which you can hoard to spend on the gacha rolls without paying; it makes more sense in game).

I actually did something similar back in the 1990s. For a short time I had a 1991 Firebird. Those final two years of the Firebird went through a major facelift and interior re-design in preparation for the upcoming forth gen. One thing that changed was airbags were put in along with a slightly redesigned steering…

I installed green interior neons in a Hyundai I had in high school. They were so bright they lit up the entire front of the cabin in a green hue laying in front of the seats. Not really sure what I was thinking back then. I did that for all of about a month until I was pulled over one night on the way home from work.

They also have to be oiled, which is never good for your intake. It’s already pulling in residual oil to be burned off through the PCV, so using a K&N intake that you then have to oil dumps more oil into the intake (and usually right onto a MAF or similar air meter).

I’d personally like to hear some of these people’s opinions on our nation’s welfare system. Fairly certain the words that would be uttered without hearing them.

The first time I went to Japan, I was walking through Tokyo Station to secure my PASMO card. I noticed that in the bustling station which was absolutely packed due to rush officers were carrying cases full of yen in groups of two. Not one officer was carrying a firearm, and only one out of the entire group was…

What would have drawn in customers is that it has an automatic. People can bash automatics all they want and I’m certain the ‘save the manual’ crowd is still grasping at what they can, but at the end of the day what probably cost the Viper a lot of sales in it’s time was being manual-only. Circa contemporary Corvettes…

I saw a meme a while back that featured the Lumine character holding a trophy that read ‘worst fan base’ referring to Genshin and it couldn’t be more true. I very much enjoy the game and play it every so often, but the entitlement of it’s community make it out almost as if it’s the only game in existence.

The thing about Ford is that they have most always been about what is on paper, as opposed to assets such as engineers (which will always be plentiful. Ford’s units have always pull massive profit margins per unit. The F-150 is currently one of the highest spreads and makes Ford upward of $10,000 per unit sold just on…

I was just going to say Lotus.

I blame that era artwork on the similar mind-set of early console games keeping “hi score;” it’s carry over from artists of the time growing up in the 70s and 80s. Conan the Barbarian has roots in 1930s pulp magazines, and that aesthetic persisted in sword & sorcery imagery and themes into comics and through the Conan…

You know, everyone likes to point out all the supposed faults in this car but I would argue this was one of the better performance cars of it’s time, especially since we’re talking about a later 2001 model with the performance upgrades.

Here’s a somewhat obscured, but prime and recent, example of exactly what you have described;
