You cannot buy them. They have the same hush-hush the Army has with Humvees, and Brinks has with their armored trucks.

Electric cars, trucks, and vans are great but there's one problem in Iceland other arctic areas. Batteries to not like very cold weather and you'd get a whole lot less than the advertised range of the battery. The colder it gets the worse the effect, which sucks because generally the colder it is the more important it…
Geez you all think this is bad try driving the the San Francisco bay area.
Another hap tip: Turn on your flashers when you're stopped in a traffic to warn drivers behind to prepare to stop themselves. Teamwork!
Most states have a move over law. If you can't safely move a lane away from the emergency vehicle, you are required to slow down.
Sometimes I'm blown away at how people will freak out and slow down while a cop is on the side of the road, lights on, in the middle of writing a ticket. Trust me, he is not going to notice or care that you were 10mph over and rush from his current perp to pull you over. Unless you are doing ludicrous speed, hes…
When you get a congested highway full of tailgaters, fast-lane hogs, and throw a cop in the mix, something's bound…
It'll be interesting to see what they choose. A high bypass turbofan would take better advantage of the massive fuel load of B-52 and give it an absurd range or an increase in payload for a given payload. The JT3D is ancient by aircraft standards, as is the CF6. There are many choices out there for engines such as the…
The USAF is kicking around 'creative concepts' under which it could re-engine its fleet of 74 ever evolving B-52H…

It was designed take the Rover V8. Last time I went to the Pick and Pull there were four Land Rover Discoverys all with their engines still in place.
I own a '76 MGB. The rubber bumpers are fugly, but the least of the worries on that car. The electrics are shit, the brakes are laughable, the body roll (holyshit the body roll) and the dangerous lack of power are the problem with those cars. I'd give anything to have 100 more horsepower in those cars without…
Don't hate on the black rubber. It's really kinda cool
i'm not sure anything can be that dangerous
The Average Joe will learn how to use Google and visit Home Depot real quick if they get a four-thousand dollar bill.
I get that the vehicle might be unstable in high speed maneuvers due to the difference in front/rear track width, so maybe they can't be sold for road use. But another hurdle may be license plate. At least in VA, where I live and work as a mechanic/vehicle inspector, you have to have a front an rear plate, and the…
The dealer wanted $4,400 to fix his Toyota hybrid. He did it for $7. Show this story to every person you know who…
Audi made a thing. It's good.
You are probably right. My wife forced me to get rid of my 94 Isuzu Rodeo when my son was born because it didn't have airbags. I tried telling her that having me behind the wheel was all the safety we needed, but she wasn't even close to buying it.
I've never met any actual parent of actual teenagers who would be comfortable giving their kid a vehicle like a Miata when they turn 16. The things are just too small.
