Well, the B-52 is expected to fly for at least 100 years. Why not this too?

Since your in the Detroit area let me give you a tip for some amazing roads and the best scenery. Hop on I-75 and make a beeline for Traverse City and the pinky. The roads around Long Lake are perfect, meandering and utterly flawless. Make sure to stop at the Village Cheese shop in Leeland, best sandwichs in the state.

Yeah.. A lot of this is at the feet of employees too. My mom’s company is a major supplier to all three and they have to keep a fleet of cars for each customer now. Turns out it’s cheaper than having to pay for employee cars getting trashed at Big 3 lots. Keying, dumping trash on and worse isn’t uncommon unfortunately.

I had the wrong plane number in my head, ignore me please!

Well its a heavy strategic bomber. So I assume it has some method of blowing the hell out of a carrier group.

They actually can blow out the sonar on subs near the surface. Its kind of terrifying.

I’m really hoping they have open track days, could be a lot of fun to go watch. I’ll agree though, the prices for condos there seem insane.

Hey David, I have to ask. What do you think of the M1 Concorse opening in Pontiac?

Two people can actually pick up and steal the bed on the new Fords. Not to mention for some reason they insisted on rivets instead of welding. The builder they contract for those lines can’t weld aluminum still, so instead of contracting another company they kept the rivets. Wonder if they solved the issues with the…

No yer not! You’ll be stone dead in a moment!

Man... I hate to say it now, but I loved bug juice..

I suspect its in case the front tire sinks into the mud or sand. So it doesn’t sink too deep and can self extricate.

What about a-rad missiles? Ewar sorta doesn't work well against those..

P-38 Lightning, also called the fork tailed devil. They were the absolute bane of the Zero. And I would say one fuselage really, one cockpit pod and two engine and tail booms.

I've got a pair of Bowers & Wilkins 650s driven by a Marantz 1603 slimline, it sounds gorgeous.

The biggest issue with high speed rail in the US is that US rail regulation is not focused on crash prevention, but on crash survival, so the cost to get a train approved to run over 70 miles is absurd. Aside from the Acela line I can only think of one other route approved to run over 70, and its a short route in…

I honestly cant wait for this to come around, I cant drive at all due to anxiety problems so living a driving community with no mass transit is simply hell.

Nikon D5100, still my absolute favorite and I have a couple cameras.
