That’s what I farm here in Texas, my dude. Texas is bonsai country.

These are perfect for a little farm. These Kei trucks would be ideal for little hay bales, bags of seed, etc.

I mean seriously, what can’t this thing do?

Quite right. And I think he’s mistaking an Allegro estate for a Reliant Kitten, which is an easy thing to get wrong from that angle:

Yes to the X1/9 and it's about ten years too early.

There’s a difference between “it broke while harvesting and I need it back in service ASAP” and “it stopped while harvesting because the cabin air filter reached its service hours limit and an authorized service tech needs to come out and replace it with an OEM filter and reset the timer to get it working again.” And…

On one hand, I get where this is coming from. “I bought the tractor, so I should be able to do whatever I want with it”.

I think the problem isn’t just ‘needing a computer’. If I remember right, it’s like dealer only diagnostic tools with cars. It’s that it has to be a Deere authorized mechanic with a proprietary set of hardware that they won’t sell you, and you can’t just use any old laptop.

Yeah, here’s a quote from one of the earlier…

Great, another area where classic Porsche prices are gonna get stupid.

30 Budweisers is, like, a couple sips of wine.

Just a heads up: If you get shitty or mean in these comments I’ll remove them. Go be an asshole somewhere else. 

An overlooked detail in the Trek universe was the lack of bathrooms. They had showers, but no toilets. Answer - transporter technology emptying the bladder and bowels on a continuous basis. It also explains how they maintain their excellent abs. Instead of binge and purge, it’s binge and beam.

I do the exact opposite; I stand up as soon as the plane takes off

He’ll get run over in DC traffic in one of those. Needs moar powr!!

except in the winter - there’s no heat. or the summer - there’s no a/c. or in traffic. or when he gets hit by literally anything.

That’s kinda sad. We need more convertibles. Somebody parked one of these at my work recently and I didn’t even know they existed until then. Maybe nobody bought them because nobody else knew about them. 

I had forgotten there was a time when an M car could go this many miles.

You’d be surprised how much Victorian infrastructure is still alive and kicking - that stuff was literally built like a brick outhouse...

Britain is missing most its Victoria era cast iron railings for this reason: if you walk around, plenty of places like parks have low stone walls were you can see the stumps of the bars still embedded or its been capped with a bit of crappy cement.

My father fought in WW2. I don’t know how accurate this was, but his view was that scrap collection, victory gardens, and the like were a way to help keep people on the home front invested in the war, rather than a necessity. In other words, taking a part off your car wasn’t going to actually make more tanks, but…
