I’ve worked for multi-nationals before. There’s never been that justification. If it’s so immediate a commercial flight can’t get it done, get it done via Video Conferencing.

You can still get anywhere you need to go rather quickly on Commerical... provided you’re willing to pay. However, that last-minute airfare is still far less than the costs of maintaining a private jet.

And weren’t Al and Tipper Gore running one of those Carbon offset scams?

Seriously, Carbon credits are the pinnacle of climate hypocrisy.  As long as these famous twats keeping telling me I should pollute less while jet-setting about in a G6 I don’t give a fuck if I burn so long as those bastards burn right beside me.

Most of the pricks only “sacrifice” by paying someone else not to pollute.  In which case, fuck ‘em.  I don’t care if I burn so long as they burn right beside me.

Exactly, you’re not going to get too many takers on your climate platform from your private Italian retreat with a bunch of other wealthy assholes.

if we’re being honest with ourselves, wouldn’t fly private rather than commercial if we had the option?

The problem with the SS was GM wanted too much money for it and nobody bought it.

The C7 was a marked improvement over the C6.  C6 had a dogshit interior and then GM had to make it even more low-rent by putting the fucking Cobalt Steering wheel in the fucker.

That scene made me laugh harder than it had any right to.  It was such a delightful piss-take on the hot-shot cop genre.

It’d be even more hilarious if they also said “No Jake Brakes” Diesels have no engine braking without a “jake” or exhaust brake. If you leave them in gear they’re coasting anyway.

However, those no coasting laws are probably from a time when most trucks had gasoline engines and thus have engine braking via the throttle…

That’s just your aussie vernacular. The term “Ute” is a joke from My Cousin Vinny ‘round these parts.

You’d have to find a dealer whose fleet sales has an extra one from a botched deal that they need to get rid of. That’s how my company has purchased it’s 2 Interceptor Utilities and 1 Interceptor Sedan.

Otherwise you have to purchase them from auction... and it seems they get more and more clapped out at the sale these…

Don’t matter how fast your car can go, it can’t outrun the Motorola.  They’ll either come get you later or meet you wherever you happen to be going.

Most major cities have a no pursuit policy because it is, in fact, too dangerous to pursue a suspect.  However, the city PD isn’t the only agency that’s usually present in the city and those other agencies will likely have a different pursuit policy.  Until some state law is passed to restrict when/how law enforcement…

The Taurus was/is awful for police work.  That interior is so tiny.  The Charger is the next smallest.  Also, I’d rank the previous gen Tahoe above the Explorer.  However, the current Tahoe the dashboard is just so bulky it really took a lot of room from the driver seat and I’d rank it below the Explorer.

Some Chevrolet dealer underbid a Ford dealer for those vehicles. Here in DFW most agencies use Tahoes and can pay a bit extra for them because they’re built over in Arlington.

The Interceptor does a bit better in the city, but it’s abysmal on the highway compared to my old Crown Brick. My Crown Vic could get 23mpg highway. I can barely nurse 20mpg out of my company’s pair of Interceptor Utilities.  It’s a huge pain in the ass too because the Interceptor’s fuel tank is SMALLER than the Crown…

Downsizing just doesn’t work with law enforcement vehicles. Officers have to wear and carry with them a shitload of equipment. The car is more than just transportation, it’s an officer’s office. quite often Literally in the case of State Highway patrols where troopers work from home. By the time you install the Dash…

The missions in GTA:SA were so odd sometimes. Indeed, a cutscene only mission was just like “That’s it?”

Oh, and the RC missions in Vice City and San Andreas were hot garbage with the default controls.  I only ever managed to get past them by doing a complete keyboard remap on PC.  The second time I beat GTA:SA on…
