@Purdueable: Have you seen european minivans? We would call them hatchbacks if they ever made it to NA. I assume he could hire a limo, but he seems smart enough to realize those aren't the type of chicks he want to hang with.

So if I was flat broke, I could do the same thing in a "borrowed" car and get a $20 fine? Time to go to pick up some chocolates for the wife!

@DangerousLiberal: I just bought a Hero (behind the times, I know) and I doubt I will ever see 2.2 without a custom rom. Wish I knew why open source software is so hard to install on a device I bought.

The middle schooler part applies to the looks too. There are hints of many awesome cars like the 458, Zonda, Konigseggegsegetc.

@acarr260: 2000 and drivable with those wheels does sound like a stretch. The TCS will have to neuter the engine untill 150mph, although even if it cuts back 75%, 500hp is a lot.

@Lite: an adventurer is me!: Have you used satelite internet? My parents have it and it's basicly as bad as dialup for anything besides large file downloads. The latency is huge, and makes surfing the web a pain, though mom is happy because now the internet banking site does not time out. So there is that. I'd rather…

@Doctor Insano: This is the worst part about net nutrality. One country could fuck it up for everyone.

@mjschmidt: I live in a city dominated by Cogeco. This is because they have a signed non-competition agreement. I'd still rather be with them than Bell though.

@dangertree: I'm all for manning up when appropriate, but really? Give the pigs more money to buy radar guns with?

@Dan John: @prupert: Not to be rude, but most of what you wrote is wrong. Telus is a canadian carrier, the phone is GSM. From what I have read, putting a rom on a telus Hero is a fair bit of work as you need to downgrade the OS to one that does not block a bootloader. This requires a goldcard. Then you can root, use…

@voltron80: From what I understand, GPS doesn't do anything unless it's called for, unlike WiFi.

@porcini: I'm stealing this photo for my phone background, as I could never take as good a pic of my '01 9-5. Hope the compliment is payment enough!

@maximum_sarge: They really do need more hatches. My mom's 9-3 hatch would hold about as much as her current Element, and it was more comfortable, faster and better on gas. They scrapped it after my brother rolled it down a 10' ditch and 50' into a corn field, but I'll never understand why they bought an Element as a…

@evoCS-Hench-Minion to the stars: I think the more awesome part is that the windsheild is all cracks and no glass. Crabbing (it looked that way to me too) is the least of his worries I'd imagine.

@Arken: Yes, but if they can't get the ratio right, how can you trust the #s? That was the point, not that it's all N2 that leaves the plant.

@Arken: This is what I was refering to, the TERESA study.

@Arken: They are saying that basicly equal amounts of NOx and SOx are emitted. EPA, says this is generally not the case. [www.epa.gov]

@mbschneider1: It doesn't seem to have any vents at all. Clearly an architect and not an electronics expert.

@Arken: What "toxins" concern you? If your going to worry, you should know what your worried about. The name of the study is eluding me at the moment, but they exposed mice to cleaned air and stack emissions from a few different american coal power plants and noticed no effects. This is because there are so many…

@minimaltek: Ya this makes no sense. It would create bidding wars between companies. Bing and Google probably already pay boatloads for bandwidth, why would anyone want to increase what they are paying to speed up what is already fast enough?
