So two cops emptied their clips at a handcuffed person in the back of a cruiser that they thought was firing at them?  Lucky for the person in question, they seem to be hopelessly incompetent at hitting a target.

I wanted to Sheesh, but honestly, I just have to stand back and clap. I’m a WW2 buff and love the USN (Dad being a USN WW2 vet). So I fell for it. I can’t say that it isn’t a carrier that sank. Because it was. I can’t say it wasn’t WW2, because it was a Canadian flagged vessel in WW2.

4k miles for 45K same color

Yeah, it’s a fun conversation piece, but I wouldn’t risk driving it more than once a week and not for too great a distance. And that was before I realized it was an auto. ND upgraded to CP.

Personally I’m a skeptic of the self driving projects but I think its a little premature to hint this was due to local animosity towards Waymo. From the description of the event it comes across more like general rioting. 

Correct.  If you went to DMV without the smog, they would start the transfer process but you would have to go get the passing smog certificate and then return to complete the registration and get CA plates.

Nolan, the modern day Kubrick, loves the F&F franchise? Well I’m impressed with his guileless honesty. Nolan raving about those flicks is something I’d never would have expected. I’d’ve expect him to be a fan of pretentious Ingmar Bergman flicks.

While any jail or prison time is massive overkill for this, last I checked ignorance of the law is not a valid defense. He willingly and knowingly flew the drone. Whether or not he was aware of the law is largely irrelevant.

The listing notes it was a $1200+ service (which doesn’t seem all that large for this car, but I digress). What Rob intended to convey was that it just received a 30k miles (not dollar) service.

It's a Ram, gremlins come standard.

This has a pretty clear negative externality to the environment but regardless, I don’t understand why one would think a rule is not valid unless someone is being victimized. 

Victimless crime... yeah the fish actually love swimming in water filled with oil and gas! And the eventual stuck truck in the water will be a shelter for them!

Uhh, you can pretty easily outrun a Hurricane in any car. Their land speed is only maybe 15 MPH, their wind speed around the eye is a different story though. 

I think the whole point of a lot of these “events” is to take over the street ie: be lawless so finding a place that would actually allow it defeats their purpose and likely a great deal of the thrill.

Drive a Musk Mobile?

I love both these and the previous coupe, but it’s still a 35 year old car with 230K on the clock, a broken sunoof mechanism, non-working HVAC blower and a heater core (ugh) that needs fixed. It’s in great shape otherwise, but given those things, I’m not sure I’d go $10 grand on it.

Exactly. In my part of NC (coastal) there is no bottom to get to, you want big and wide tires to hopefully stay on top. In western NC mud is much more shallow, so you want a tire that will fling out the clay and reach the bottom.
