Of note, this bridge is the only way on and off Pelican Island via car. But it sounds like it might even reopen today. I wonder if the train bridge is even still used these days. It doesn’t look like it is.

Can anybody explain the Hannibal Lecter thing to me? I’m genuinely confused why he keeps referencing the fictional “late great” Hannibal Lecter in his speeches.

Lighters, coins, fries...3 things that have never seen the inside of my car. The keys are in the ignition. The phone stays put away while I’m driving. HOWEVER, I have fumbled my parking card down there, which is a pain when you’re trying to get out of the garage and there might be a line of cars behind you.

I’m skeptical that the plane would push back sooner. Ever after everyone boards, there’s still a decent amount of sitting around and waiting that goes on.

“For example, when putting the truck in its highest suspension setting, the wheels pulled so far into the wheel wells that it buckled the linoleum floor it was parked on.”

Living in something 6 feet wide does seem like a recipe for losing one’s marbles.

Why is it horror movie terrifying?  Also, built in 1919?

 This is nothing new. There’s an abandoned Sears down the road that has been a Tesla storage lot for years.

I thought his son doodled the Cybertruck. Or was that just a rumor?

It’s more than I would pay, but I like it, it’s fun. Can VW do the impossible and make a minivan “cool?”

I do recall Subaru saying the WRX is going to get its own platform, but when the next/new WRX came out, it seems that never came to fruition.

It’s why I’m on my 2nd one.  AWD, stick, turbo, low tech (a plus for me), and low price. Hard to find all that elsewhere on the market. I’m not interested in used cars. 

Just a hunch, maybe Cypress Green is only in the States. Corolla GR is manufactured in Japan.

Right, Subaru Global Platform. And I realize it underpins a variety of vehicles, but you can just put the Impreza and WRX next to each and easily see they are not very different. In fact, they are very, very much the same in many ways. Also, just sit in both of them. They do drive quite different thanks to chassis…

Weird they would use a wrap when Toyota already had Cypress Green in their paint stable. Not sure I can tell the difference. 

I hear people repeat this routinely, but I can’t find any credible evidence that it actually is a separate platform. Everything seems to indicate they are the same platform.

Which company?

I saw a Facebook ad from a sketchy lot with a Neon for sale. Runs great, drives great, clean title, one owner, habla espanol. $1. I don’t know who would respond to such an ad.

This is just the lower part.

Yeah, it’s a serious elevation change, will be interesting to see how big the ride is.
