Damn, I thought I was hot shit when I bought a new car for $15000 cash. I was so happy because I didn’t have to hear the speech about financing rates or haggle and shit. I was like, I’ll give you $15k cash, right now if I can drive off with that *points* and they were like, well with fees, etc it’s $15450 and I was…

If I see someone tailgating me and distracted, I approach red lights at full speed, downshift until I’m at like 5 grand, then slam on my brakes. If they rear end me and break my $15000 irreparable dual clutch transmission, that’s between them and my very good traffic lawyer.

Jesus Christ! Why didn’t you just buy a bottle??

How? You can’t just end the post like this!

I think we’ve found our new slogan. “Less Terrible! (R)“

I’m sure there’s some truth to it but it doesn’t seem to make much sense.

Yeah.. no.. if I lose 50k I’d be pissed but I’ll brush it off, it’s like, 4 months savings. If I lost everything, the shit would literally hit the fan.

Just cause u got money doesn’t mean u have to blow it away. Our bonuses this year is enough to buy a C63amg cash and I think my wife has been on the same hair tie for like a month. The fabric on the outside ripped and she’s on the little elastic piece on the inside now. She has a bag of 50 that she bought for like 3…

The math involved is no harder than a triple beam inverted pendulum. You need maybe 1 or 2 more DOF’s. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not easy as pie but it’s not as hard as say, the control equations for sustaining a plasma chain torus.

WTF is that, a camaro??

It seems like you need a new job. Don’t let engineering get you down just because of 1 job.

Finally, Mitsubishi gets some positive press!! Also, newer cheap cars are already quiet as hell. The new maxima is supposed to be within like 2dB of a Merc s class.

Tangent time: As an engineer and designer and good friend of someone who just bought a Jeep, pure designers who have a 50,000ft view of the world piss me the fuck off. Whoever the hell designed the shifter that is killing people in the Jeeps needs to be fired immediately and blackballed from the industry. If my guys…

Ahhhhhhhhhh.... *deep breath* arghhhhhhhhhh!!!!!

Wow... Delusional much? I’ve cruised at nearly 100mph through the Midwest for nearly 2 hours in a shitty automatic rental that had 105hp. The only people who were with me in the original group was some dude in a Subaru. There was an M3 that hung with us for like 20 min before he chickened out. The transmission has…

The CFM’s on a 737 produce 40klbs of thrust. Using the rule of thumb of 2.5lbs per hour, that’s 100k HP or 75 megawatts. Good luck filling a battery with that.

It didn’t fly backwards. The nose was always pointed forwards, the airspeed vector was always positive, it was the ground speed that went negative.

Sometimes its not their fault. the dealers here order all of them that way, you cant get a nonlit one unless you wait like 5 years

Its called stop-stop

that hurt.... that really hurt...
