I know it seams like we'd have everything tied to us somehow but it's just the opposite. Almost nothing is attached to us except the bags we have our tools in. Do we drop things? Of course. And this can be dangerous obviously. However, you will only get a lanyard caught on something ONE time before you throw that crap…

It depends on the equipment you're using. Typically, the hardest part is needing reach down and unclip an anchor because you've moved up higher. You've reanchored yourself of course but the reaching down and groping is hard when you're balanced precariously. Sometimes you have to clip on your positioning lanyard just…

There's other antennae on the tower that are still in use. Either way, it's not typically economically feasible to pull down every antennae no longer in use. Nearly a third of the antennae you see on towers are non-functional believe it or not.

They aren't legal for tower use yet. I know because I keep bugging the FCC about it and waiting.

Our climbers make $12-22 per hour on average ...

The funny thing is that once you are accustomed to climbing towers it doesn't really matter if it's 100' or 1000' it really all feels the same. You use the same methods and equipment too.

People always freak out whenever I state that the Honda/Acura NSX is underwhelming compared to any car it was designed to compete with. Especially the early years of the design.

1st Gen Kia Sportage 4x4 in a manual - The things will go anywhere, have a tight gear ratio, an unusual ammount of suspension travel for their size, and that Mazda motor can be swapped or turbo'd readily. I've been debating building one for years.

What the fuck does routine maintenance have to do with you calling that Lex unreliable? Of course you have to do ROUTINE maintenance (which includes the timing belt). Not being babied by the previous owner(s) doesn't have shit to do with what the car is REQUIRED to have.

In response to this article ... BULLSHIT. Yes, the owners play a role. However, the quality (or lack there of) of a vehicle by design is by no means irrelevent to reliability. Furthermore, if one wishes to produce such conjecture they should realize that they are also saying that with bad owners all cars become…

My snap reaction was "Dodge Caliber Base model with CVT garbage" ... But then I realized that "disappointment" means that I would have to have hopes about it to be let down ... ... ... I will therefor ammend my choice and select the 1984 Mustang GT. I picked one up a while back and was all excited until I realized my…

Let me know when the SS Works CRX is for sale. I will shit a brick and smash my piggy bank for it.

Volvo 850R or a 740 Turbo in a manual. Comfy but very fun with or without upgrades.

That is just one hypermiling technique ... Many people actually use "Pulse-Glide" which means LOTS of throttle ...

I have some feedback coming from my experience in the Army.

If I had wrote a review based solely on my expectations I think it would have read exactly the same.

I'm very curious to see what the real world fuel economy is.

No argument. However, we remember him for a reason.

While he was certainly an amazing designer and engineer he was also an asshat. Of course, this is why the Delorean is simultaneously amazing and a complete nightmare/flop. There's a reason why we remember him specifically.

What does that have to do with the facts from later? I once got a hole-in-one but that doesn't make me a pro-fucking-golfer ...
