I remember that some Volvos went a step further and spit up the fluid on two and four piston calipers. Each caliper had two inlet lines, one from each bowl of the master cylinder, so half the pistons on each brake would always work.

Parking deck tip: drive to the level one down from the top, or the top if it isn’t too sunny or rainy. Take elevator to destination. Most people stop driving as soon as they see a space.

In person the coupes especially look more like a E30 than anything else.

Two candidates.

I thought I was doing good when I fit 9 or 10 in a Ford Taurus sedan. 3 in front, rest in back. It was a church singles group ski trip in Colorado, went about a mile from the hotel into town to eat. I was the only one that rented a car, the rest just used the shuttle.

Better tell my rural post office to stop using them then.

Things happen. 500 plus stops, but in rural areas they might drive several miles without stopping at the beginning and end of the route. Not counting the ones stuck doing Sunday deliveries for Amazon with miles between stops. Not saying they are going to crack a windshield every week, but with 200,000 plus trucks with…

I moved away from a Fry’s about 6 years ago. I got my first DSLR there on clearance. That was when I found out that unlike most stores, Fry’s bought their inventory up front. Most other stores had deals with the manufacturers to pay when an item actually sold or return it it if it didn’t.  They had great clearance…

Never been behind a dump truck?

Juse this sound 99 times in a row is enough.

Yes, but you could program the laser to fire 99 times in a row.  Sure to annoy your victim. 

Therse were the performance cars you bought if you or a very close family member worked for Chrysler. Now these are pretty easy to hop up. Back in the 1980s any corner garage could make a Ford or Chevy V-8 MUCH faster than factory spec. A turbo Chrysler performance shop was hard to come by.

And the charge would be homicide. Causing a death in the commission of a felony is homicide. 

I worked as an engineer for a manufacturer of large yellow construction machines, specifically a plant that made excavators. There is a large ring that attaches the tracks to the rest of the machine with a couple of dozen or so bolts securing it. They used torque wrenches that actually recorded the torque used along…

So it is just like regular Detroit Pizza then.  Except Detroit Pizza can't even get the round shape and pie cuts right.

The Electric Gremlin!  Oh wait.....

I used to work with a guy that was a design engineer for one of the main subcontractors on the shuttle. Got him talking about Challenger one day.  He was in on design meetings where they were doing failure mode analysis for the shuttle. They never imagined a scenario where there could be a failure where the crew could…

As the former owner of a black 1996 BMW Z3 M Roadster conversion, this article gives me PTSD. Mine was a decent conversion, but far from professional. When it worked it was damn quick. My problems started before I even bought the car in about 2010. My dad actually found it when looking for his “old man convertible”.…

They are just using the spelling rules that they learned. I before E, except after C.  Clearly the I and E are after the C.

Ranchero has the same compartment.
