It needs 50% fewer miles, and 50% more pedals or 100% more driven wheels.

I hope they look into CPB, but I doubt it will happen. Every Customs station is run like its own little fiefdom and of course they behave like theirs is the only way to do anything and you’re a fool for believing its done differently anywhere else.

I was born and raised in the Bay Area and in those 27 years I think they managed to only extend BART to the airport. There’s always some excuse for why they can’t do it while raking in a ton of money. It always seemed ridiculous there wasn’t a subway that ran the full loop of the SF Bay with multiple underwater…

It’s CP for most folks but if I had a garage for it, I just might have pulled the trigger (after some negotiating, of course).

Chill the fuck out...

Take that one curve a lot slower when there’s snow/ice on the ground

Obligatory Top Secret clip

The rights-available image Steve had to use (I get it) was a little unclear. I was at bottom middle, trying to cross and turn left, he was coming from the left and, it turned out, not slowing at all to turn off right onto my access road and short of me. Only smart thing I did that day was have my seatbelt on, which…

Currently at 100% ND, which is absolutely correct. Anyone who hits NP is trolling. 

TIL. I have them. I don’t smoke.

I would think that it is most of them. I was “overloading” in the 1980s and 90s before it was called that. What that meant was driving along dirt roads or trails (usually in BLM or National Forest land) to get closer to mountain bike or hiking trails, climbing areas, or simply to be in the wilderness. I (and my…

I’m a bit torn. The fact the catalytic converter is apparently sorted correctly makes me believe maybe the car was taken care of. A true cheapo would be selling it as-is when it can’t pass smog or would have some attempt at cheating on there.

First thing I pulled out of my BMW 850 was the Subwoofer.

Oeuf, what a mess. The cleanup crew deserves a standing ovation.

“It’s fine. It’s got a random electrical fault.”

I used to have a car that would randomly go into limp mode, requiring that I pull over and restart it. The 6 months I spent trying to fix it were the worst of my automotive life. I had to plan my routes carefully to make sure I would always have a safe space to pull over when it happened. Highways? I was not brave…

Most overlanders stick to fire roads at worst, which to be completely honest is absolutely fine. You can find some fantastic out of the way spots without needing to go full Camel Trophy. Go slow, pick your terrain and keep the shiny side up. No need to break a CV every time you want to go roast some marshmallows by a…

They call him MISTER Tibbs!

You make a list of major actors to play Sherlock on screen and leave off Basil Rathbone?  The actor probably most responsible for our modern image of the character?

Where is Virgil Tibbs from In the heat of the night?
