You know, I realize that too. Even aside from the parking spots, you then have to worry about increased crime from those cars attracting criminals. Which as we’ve seen here in present day Vegas, the stigma of crime is hurting this city severely.

The light rail plan was axed because they claimed it was too expensive to drop rails...in the dedicated bus lanes they were already creating. Figure that one out.

Tried going there before, and they were booked. Now they’re temporarily closed due to the pandemic. Don’t know if they’re reopen before I leave.

Large, yes. But not the biggest demographic. That would first be visitors from California who drive here by car, followed by visitors who rented cars to explore places like Hover Dam, Red Rock Canyon, Valley of Fire, etc. THEN you trickle down to the people who flew in and never bothered with personal transportation.

I don’t doubt it. Hell, I would even argue that in the old atmosphere of the mob, even the cops became far more emboldened than the mafia ever was to enforce their version of law & order. Two great books to speak about this are Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas by Hunter S. Thompson, and Casino by Nicholas Pileggi.

It’s true. I cannot fault the resorts for this entirely. Even as far back as the 1990s when the Showcase mall next door first opened, we’d all park at MGM and then walk next door. It was quite honestly the distance of at least a mile, but it was worth it to save cash.

I tentatively agree. Once we’re allowed inside, we can all fully concur at that point.

I honestly don’t. The mafia wasn’t good for Las Vegas, there is no arguing that. However, they were at least self-aware to understand enough to not shit where you sleep. Bloodthirsty, greedy, and ruthless as the mafia was, they did at least know not to burn the locals, and especially their employees.

All we ever wanted in Las Vegas was to connect the Monorail from Downtown, to McCarran airport. 25 years we’ve been waiting, and still not a damn movement in the direction.

I’m not referencing size. What I’m speaking of is styling. The Jeep has very utilitarian features which dictated the styling. Body lines created not from emotional art, but functional rolls to create rigidity. Simple bolt-on chrome where applicable, parts bin lenses, off the shelf head lights, etc. It creates a…

Not gonna lie, and certainly not trying to be snarky, but the side-by-side comparison with David’s Jeep actually makes the Jeep look more appealing than the Ford.

Part #17 in this diagram: Shift Pivot Bolt. Low grade bolt that is thick on the top to fill the space in the Bellcrank, but severely tapered down and threaded on the opposite end to fit inside of a welded nut.

Thanks Gilfoyle.

If that was true, the Rotunda, Mopar, and AC Delco would have sold acoustic tuners instead of exhaust gas analyzers.

Well I’ll be damned. I guess there are Catholics in Japan.

You tune EFI by computer using science to know the engine will work correctly.

No offence, but if everything is a “Holy Grail”, than nothing is a “Holy Grail”.

Glad I’m not the only one who saw the matching beltline.

In all honesty, you have absolutely no fucking clue just how ACCURATE your statement is!!!

I didn’t see Easy Rider until I was 22. I know that had I have seen that movie just a few years earlier, I probably would have become a motorcycle guy.
