My first car was an '87 Sentra that pulled about 70hp from a carbeurated I-4, and yes, I thrashed it like there was no tomorrow. It cost me the carb, a fuel pump, and more hubcaps than you can shake a tire iron at. I even went muddin' in it once.

Fellow cycling enthusiast, I take it?

Wasn't the big deal with Forza 3 that it would run at 1080p@60fps? On the 360? like, 5 years ago? 1080p is great, but doesn't it seem weird they've been using the same "gold standard" for the better part of a decade?

Right?
This should be....what's Japanese for "whale shark?"

It's from having two motors doing regen braking instead of just one. If you have the motor only powering one set of wheels, only braking on those wheels recharges the battery, so switching to two motors/AWD just lets you recoup ALL the braking, and better recharging = longer range.

This address won't come with much good news, because State of the Wagon in America is not very strong. Wagons everywhere, even time-honored favorites, have been disappearing in favor of SUVs and crossovers for many years, and this trend shows no signs of abating.

Wanna know how much Tesla has changed? I completely forgot they made the Roadster. The Model S is such a far better representative of who they are and what they stand for and what the future might look like. Now that we've all see Elon's D, it's not even the performance leader anymore.

We're talking about an industry that made three movies out of the Hobbit, here. I think it's far-fetched, too, but hardly impossible.

Given that this is the completely gutted GT-racing version, I don't think you have to worry about the augmented engine note.

That's what I've heard, too.

What's that thing on the left, though?

Thanks, but I got it after the first two replies.

I've got a tentative invite to go on a German hunting trip in a couple of weeks and holy crap am I excited.
Hunting here, as far as I've read, is way more about population- and land management than getting food- thought that's probably a close second- and bagging trophies.
The trophy-bagging was mostly an aristocratic…

How did they get it up there without getting snow on the tires??? I is confused :(

I got it based on the fact that I love both dogs and motorsports, so the premise and marketing are certainly spot-on, but I also put it down when I saw the sucker-punch with the protagonist's wife coming about a quarter of the way in.
What I did read, I liked, and I'll probably pick it back up once I'm out of school.…

I don' gt it.

Apparently they're pretty much the same thing: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munster_c…

And that's exactly what they (grits) are. Much more efficient description than mine!
I'm trying to make them in Germany with cornmeal meant for polenta and the results are...interesting.

*Ahem*
Camembert is a bloom rind cheese. Chaumes, for example, is a washed rind; the ones with orange/yellow/brown rinds that are stinky and kinda sticky to the touch. (me as former cheese retailer. )

I took a demo ride in an i3 the other day and...yeah. It's like launching down a runway. Just a gentle hum and uninterrupted thrust. I definitely giggled a little.

But...why would the gas get shut off? Russia needs to get money to buy ships from somewhere, yes? Isn't gas/oil their main source of cashflow?

Paraphrasing StevenG, it's an old car business gambit called the "halo car." It generates buzz around the base models and the rest of the lineup. It's usually a decent business case, building brand cred and buzz if not always profits.
