Nascar has never been a huge fan of Live Streaming.

There’s difference between qualifying and race lap records though. In qualifying the current cars are way faster, in the races not so much. Refueling has been banned since 2011, so the cars run giant heavy fuel loads.

Aside from that weight they can’t actually use full power all the way for fear of running out of…

While watching one of the recent F1 races Crofty made a good point. He said no matter how many rules you change the engineers never forget what they’ve learned and what has worked in the past, they just find new ways to implement it.

Let me address the common complaints, one by one.

A tried and true mechanic’s rule:
Anytime the key is inside the car and you’re not, leave the driver’s window down.

In 27 years of being a mechanic, I have never gotten locked out of my car or a customer car when I followed that rule.

I had a powerstroke F250 until about 2 weeks ago. I’m happy every day I don’t see it in my driveway! About half of the common known issues require the cab off. And mine broke down frequently for the entire time I owned it despite maintenance on time by the book, and never having any modifications - no tuners, not even…

I’ve been around a lot of gun nuts in my life. My first best friend’s dad had a basement that would could honestly called an Armory. I had an interest, but it never became a big thing in my life.

Yep. I have a set of snow tires on cheap steelies for my WRX. Makes winter much more pleasant. My brother in law from Michigan once asked me if all Canadians use steelies for snow tires. I started paying attention and it seems a lot of us do it even for more expensive cars. Nobody looks at you funny if you have a BMW…

Toyota sort of invented Just-In-Time inventory control and they’re dedicated to it. As a result, they do it better than almost anyone.

yeah, people always say ‘BUT SNOW TIRES ON 2WD ARE BETTER THAN AWD ON ALL SEASONS!’

Bicyclist here. I thought the apology was refreshing in an age of half assed “we’re sorry if we offended anyone” B.S. that passes for sincere nowadays.

Beats the newest thing in my immediate family by five years... but thankfully that one is also a Toyota, and has only 120k well-maintained and fairly gently driven miles on the clock, so (barring drunks and texters and other such random bad luck), we should be able to ride this one out with years to spare.

But profits. Sure, I mean, it’s bad for the global economy and whatever, but what about next quarter? THAT IS ALL THAT MATTERS.

the point is to drive your car until there is not real difference in depreciation, and THEN buy another. After 10 years and 200k, most cars are at the bottom anyway.

Maybe we need a refresher on the true meaning of Christmas...

The 6 cyclists’ attorneys have a good write-up about the accident and how they’re proceeding.

100%.  I like my iPhone.  I like CarPlay.  I have no desire for either to do anything beyond control media, navigation, and phone calls.

Either this attorney thinks everyone is an idiot who will believe this hogwash about “criminal intent” or he’s the only attorney not to have understood a single thing in first year law.

What you have to understand about Conservatism is at its core, it is about preserving an in-group protected by the law but not bound by it, and an out-group bound by the law but not protected by it.

Our two DDs, Honda Fit hatch and Chevy Sonic hatch, are both pretty easy. “Unsnap” the glovebox door and it’s right there, with its own door that unsnaps and the cabin filter and/or holder slides right out and back in.
