It will be only a matter of months before enough asshats have created enough death and destruction with their asshattery and the Feds will have to step in.

It was a fowl night.

She now has zero ducks to give.

Just the opposite. I came to commend the fact that it wasn’t full of “custom” Harleys all build off the same frame design. Sure, it takes skill to make a Harley look custom but it takes a whole lot more skill when you are working on a bike that doesn’t have a boatload of aftermarket custom accessories.

They were there for the sale. Buy three, get one free.

To me it sounded like, “WTF? Do you treat all your customers this way?”

My 2000 SE 5 spd was my favorite adult car to drive once you got past the quality issues. Every year getting the car inspected involved spending $300-$600 on some emission problem.

And this is exactly why typical approaches to tort reform are always wrong. Every attempt at reform is based on limiting damages. Tort reform should be about raising the bar on what it takes to find someone actually liable and stop the frivioulus lawsuits in their tracks.

All these rants by triggered writers about microagressions. I thought this was another Jezebel post bleeding over. What’s next? A rant about men leaving the seat way back?

I was with you until you said Red Mustang. Now I’m worried.

Nah. “Computers are a fad.” Boss circa 1989.

Everybody better pay attention. Cuomo is posturing for a presidential bid. My feelings about him are mixed between his bullying tendencies or the corruption that follows him around like bad gas. It doesn’t matter how much of a gearhead he is, he will gladly impose crushing regulations on the auto industry if it will

Infotainment systems is one of the biggest wastes of money out there. All cars are going to come with bluetooth and backup cams. Other than the radio, maybe 10% of the infortainment capabilities will be used (not counting back seat).

You can tell the age of this crowd because they all jumped on the Fast and Furious theme or the latest Mad Max branded dystopia movie. You however, are cultured enough to know the proper pop culture reference.

Especially this one. The lag-rush delivery of the turbo engine is one thing. But couple that to the floppy single tube backbone frame and shaft jacking from the rearend and it gets downright scary if you get power at the wrong time. BTDT.

Now we’re covering movies that make you go, Meh?

Probably depends on the state. Districts in my state can buy the current hybrid offerings now if they wanted to. One of the bus manufacturers was passing around an LPG demo bus earlier this year. I bring this up at least once a year. But districts are spending taxpayers’ money and are very risk adverse. Be it hybrid

That’s what the bus vendors told me at a convention. The early hybrid models didn’t last the 10-15 ownership cycle. Districts are still wary of them. The purchase would have to include a long term warrenty on the new and different pieces before districst would bit again.

Long term cost containment and safety. When schools contract it out they no longer have the money to maintain their own fleet. They are then stuck with the contract model because to change back they would have to buy a whole new fleet. If the contractor wants to jack up the rates and there’s no competative bid, your

Notice how the front end has curved aero lines while the rest of the car follows the linear style of the day like the Chevy Celebrity? It was because the Ford Taurus came out like gangbusters the year before with its rounded aero styling. Chevy rushed a new front end to keep up with the trend started by the Taurus.
