Also, there are enough typos on their website ("proctection", "lenght") that I'd be concerned about the rest of the attention to detail.

Doesn't have to break the bank (you don't NEED to drop your house payment on Shoei, Alpinestar and Sidi), but a rider should probably be expecting to drop $500 or so on good-enough gear if they're going to be putting themselves on two wheels with no airbags/seatbelts.

$300?

My personal situation:

This /is/ a Legacy wagon. It's just tall. I do believe that if you feel like doing so, all the suspension from a Legacy GT sedan will bolt right on up.

Oh, my dear sweet...

I really don't understand how "frosted mug" is a "thing". Whenever I go to a restaurant that does this (I'm looking at you, Outback Steak House), I end up with a beer Slushie or a beer with little icebergs floating in it.

My next bike sure did. ;-)

Late one fall I decided to get up early and ride the motorcycle up Mt. Evans (and then back down and up over Trail Ridge and back home) nice and early before all the tourists got up and clogged the roads. Turns out it was the last day Mt. Evans was open for the season.

The frost heaves in the road near the lake make this a particularly exciting drive if you've got a low ground-clearance motorcycle (unless they've finally fixed them). On my old BMW F650 with plenty of suspension they were entertaining as all get-out, even if that poor single was wheezing it's last breath. On my…

I assume that you think this is a pretty far-fetched test. Here's a couple of real-world examples of this flavor of accident that don't seem particularly far-fetched:

From a physics standpoint (it's been a while, though...) I think a collision with a fixed object is basically equivalent to colliding with an object of equal (or larger) mass/velocity coming the other direction. You're both transferring an equal amount of momentum back to the other guy which nets out to the same…

My 2012 Outback is decently safe AND has bountiful amounts of windows leaving for about zero blind spot. The same cannot be said for the Sportage, Santa Fe and Rogue I was cross-shopping it against.

This is a problem split between "People are careless and inattentive" and "Auto manufacturers build cars with miserable outward visibility".

Feds require cars have rear cameras after 2018 because auto manufacturers stopped caring about things like "outward visibility".

For a more useful (yet still cheap) change, replace the shallow sink and low-rise faucet with something deeper/taller (plus, add a spray head faucet!).

Typical architects: waste all this possible square footage on a greatroom and then line it with bookshelves that are purely ornamental because I sure don't see a library ladder in the photos anywhere.

Nothing says "professional job" like numbering legends that don't match your drawings.

A report in Automotive News says that in 2010, GM recalled more than one million Chevrolet Cobalts and Pontiac G5s after they were found to experience a sudden loss of power-steering assistance. The 2004-2007 Saturn Ion has the exact same power steering system, but it was not recalled.
