Actually they just made them heavier, the sheet metal was much thicker and heavier and the block was as well on the 280 so the grunt is partly cancelled out. Better carb them too since the injection system was fucking awful. The extra metal could help strength off road but they weigh a couple hundred pounds more.…

Oh nice Ford Mondeo! 

You can recycle it without cleaning it, common myth/misconception. It all gets pulverized and put through a series of steps that would make no difference. I actually read something by our local Recology, they said it’s a waste of energy to do it since they don’t care. 

Yeah you can put salmon in foil sealed up well and poach it on the hottest setting.

I have always wondered if you could order a totally base Gelandewagen like Mercedes would sell in other areas. If they sell a G class then it must be legal in the US, but we only see AMG versions. Why couldn’t you order a base petrol model with manual windows since it is effectively the same vehicle only optioned into…

Well I have never heard of this, my wife is Japanese and I lived there for years. Perhaps the rice is eaten too quickly, never sits around more than a few days. We make three cups at a time in the Zojirushi robo cooker and it stays hot in there all day, then I put it in the fridge. I suppose leaving anything out in…

I went right to the Craigslist there, I have found one already. My wife is from Japan and there is an exporter that posts on here so I could try my luck with one in Japan if the cost was comparable. 

I dream of Chamonix, the van, not whatever the fuck place that is in France. 

I was actually pretty surprised how much money is involved with all that, so much that I suspected it has little to do with the participants and more for making a business out of it. So I am now shocked DeVos isn’t cashing in on it.

Yeah like the parts runners for mechanics, it’s always a small pickup. 

Well local contractors don’t go far, my cousin has an F250 and I doubt he goes out of the area with it since he has personal family vehicles. You either have materials delivered to the site or get a few things locally from what I see of his work. 

I can’t think of any guys that listened to that at the time. 

Lucky girl

I’m an F1 fan, otherwise I would have no idea.

Yeah they usually say the flight number and destination, give you an ETA etc... some good pilots mention a head/tail wind. I guess the shorter flights don’t have the map up on the screen to show your position moving in the wrong direction. On an long haul you would be like... um the other way... pushes attendant…

Yeah I wonder if they will be trying to take on the Jeeps, it’s ambitious if they are but if there was a real option to the new Wranglers it would be cool for those who aren’t really into those. We may see rigs with $20k in parts at a mall near you! 

Well for one you could then swap out other axles for builds. 

That is Geri’s husband

Yeah that is almost dead on, the side window vent looks like a modern interpretation of that.
