Careful guys,being care free with your loads causes nightmares between the sheets and in the streets!

I know angles can be deceptive, but that hood orange is definitely not the same as the fender orange

beat me to it, I immediately thought of that guy

So for some math/stat nerds (like myself)... How much did this crash actually cost the economy? Rush hour on the brooklyn bridge cut off, I wonder how many employees were an hour or two late to their jobs, having their wages shortened this week because of a crash on a bridge?

I mean.....I laughed...

Fun fact, when crash/cross traffic radars are mounted on the body behind the bumper covers, you CANNOT repair the bumpers in that area.

Do you thing the entire owners manual is in Engrish? God I hope so, I just recently had a gem of a manual from a gypsy mall kiosk mini nintendo:  1)never allow children play it alone for it comes to the power using.

I’ve found it reads BMW/MB specific codes almost to a fault - meaning sometimes I don’t have resources to decode what the code means. It sees and reads every deep computer (there are often 30-50 on a modern euro), and gives you the manufacture specific fault codes, not generic P/U codes.

Didn’t expect to see Autel here, but I’ll pass on my experience.

I wonder as well. I did maintenance on the first gen chargers, and they were..pathetic. All lower control arm bushings in the front were ripped out every 25k, brakes were metal to metal at 20k, they Dodge recommends synthetic oil, which my local agency had orders to ignore and go with the cheapest conventional every

Haha yes! biggest lesson I’ve learned are those two things too..everything tastes good cooked with olive oil, with medium-high heat, with salt. lol

Ah I see how you figure it. With my family, Blue apron is 4 days evening meals for 2, for $18 a night. The other 3 days we typically go out or order in, which is between $30 and $70 per night.

I agree with most of your sentiments. My wife and I work full time, so dinner is normally ‘what should we order in’ late. I do hate the prep time - they must have some magic preppers who can actually cook in the time listed, I would say most take me about an hour, which sucks since we start cooking at 9-10pm.

Many times it is company dependent. In Florida, 80% is common, but there are some companies that total at 50%, others let it get pushed just below 99% if the company wants it back.

Lol better expression. Its true, I’ve dealt with so many bloody accident scenes and grieving families facing completely preventable deaths, because someone didn’t click a seatbelt

Long and interesting article, I’m only halfway thru it but saw this statement and wanted to chime in: “except something related to the seatbelt tensioners had apparently activated, preventing the belts from releasing all the way from their retracted positions.”

Not fully related to this vehicle, but Jalopnik writers: Why are automotive AC outlets labeled 115V, instead of 120V? I’ve recently noticed this and can’t figure out why they would drop 5V AC vs what our house electrical is

I came here to pounce on him too for calling a British traveler a ‘westerner’...but research led me to this:

yeep, sorry about that
