Not unless you count myself, at 22, as middle aged and cynical.

Then again, that could be because at my height and body weight, a single drink will probably put me over this proposed limit.

Yeah but that's bullshit because I'm 5 foot 10 and 130 lbs, and if they change this law, I probably won't be able to have a single beer and drive home legally.

I'm not a menace to anyone after a single beer. I don't even feel a single beer (literally, not one bit), same as pretty much anyone who has drank before in…

lol I just like that the dudes were angry, but had the foresight to wear safety equipment.

If I'm angry enough to smash a (any) car, it's because I haven't given it serious thought. Serious thought is required before you get safety equipment.

That's kind of my point though.

That's not exactly a short list... For the size of the market, that's a pretty broad selection.

The G-Wagen isn't just different from every single car in the Mercedes lineup, it's different from nearly everything else on the road. This is one of the last true body-on-frame trucks left on sale today. It's also one of the only vehicles for sale today that would be rejected if it became more refined. The G has a…

You're that guy with the 2.6 SD in the fiero, eh? I remember that from YEARS ago.

Stories that tell my favorite car company (GM) what to do irritate me.

That said, to this article.. Yes.

I like a lot of your posts man, but you're fucking wrong on this one.

As an ex-dealership technician, any dealership tech working on a warranty job these days works exactly the way you're describing.

Best answer in the thread.

Actually, manuals are harder.
Seriously, I've done both.

I've been in 4 deployment accidents now, only one of which needed deployment (imo) and I never touched the airbag... If you have a seatbelt and sit a reasonable distance back, it'll just burn you after the fact... That was my experience 1x as driver and 3x as passenger, anyways. I'd GLADLY drop 200 lbs of airbags out…

And you should be allowed to choose to have all that stuff in your car, or not. The premise of this article (blaming the mfr) is pretty ridiculous.

It's up to the consumer to decide if being safe is worth your money. Or perhaps you'd like to trade the extra 300lbs in safety equipment for more fuel economy, or speed, or…

Lmao, yeah, the car companies sat in meetings and said "You know what? I think Brazillians are shit compared to Europeans. Lets take the safety equipment out of their cars." Come on man, be reasonable. Please don't tell me you really feel like this happened, although I understand the sentiment.

lolololololol

Isn't that a bit redundant?

It's a Taureg with some badges.

It'll make them loads of cash.

VAG didn't learn from GM — badge engineering will kill them over the next 20 years though.

You know what I often think?
Lets just take people's money based on how much they have, because "they won't even notice."

Stop giving props to that stupid zero fucks given rx7. PLEASE, PLEASE pick any of the THOUSANDS OF WELL BUILT v8 SWAPPED RX7s TO USE AS AN EXAMPLE.

The sound travels up the chassis, the greater length would just make the harmonics worse, it should sound even more terrible.

Uhh, because Corvettes and Mustangs and Cadillacs don't have V12s...
