Dante’s Peak themed Ram Wagon?
Dodge could have sold a million Texas Ranger edition Rams. 12-year-old me wanted one badly...
And the 1st gen Volt came out in 2010. There aren’t enormous design changes in the Voltec drivetrain between them.
You are aware that it takes almost as much electricity to refine and distribute a gallon of gasoline as it does to drive an equivalent distance on electricity directly? Guess that means whatever you drive also burns coal and generates nuclear waste...
Seriously though, why can’t we get a Volt-ified Silverado?
VIA Motors has been hawking one for years, but it’s still not available to the average Joe.
Yeah, even if the dogs were removed the plane has already been contaminated with dander. Allergies severe enough to risk death do exist (Google shows one example of a schoolboy in the UK who was “cured” with an experimental vaccine derived from dog hair) That being said, if this woman had such an allergy she certainly…
Video plays in double time, so it almost looks cartoonish. Wonder if there’s one with 1x playback speed?
The red-light cameras here are a joke. Up until about 2010 they were traditional film cameras, which means that somebody had to climb up and change the film daily. The film was often used up after 6 hours or so. Also, they only had about 30 cameras to rotate amongst 120 intersections. Statistically speaking, you had a…
The Pledge of Allegiance was written by a flag salesman, probably the best example of viral marketing...
Factory touch screens don’t offer half the features you list. Aftermarket units do because functionality and features actually affect their sales, but OEM units are rife with poor design choices and inflated option pricing.
DVRs started to become prevalent once hard drives surpassed 100GB circa 2001. I installed heaps of Digimerge 160GB units around 2002-2003. Standard resolution at the time was CIF (352 x 240) though most units could manage 4CIF on a couple cameras (704 x 480) All of the cabling was analog; either coax or baluns over…
The Apollo Guidance Computer used metric and only converted to imperial for display to the meaty baggage:
Obligatory...
Haven’t really looked at the new Acadia.
My personal pet peeve is when people film the screen of a security monitor rather than copying the video directly to DVD or USB. Just about every system made in the last 15 years has the ability to do so, so unless you’re using VHS...
I agree. The technical term would probably be “loss of isolation”
Waze is pretty decent but it has one downside. Because it’s owned by Google it will use Google place results if they’re not already in the Waze database (which is entirely edited by people)
I concur, however there was an example posted in one of the previous Jalop articles where the exact same job on two different model year vehicles has wildly different book hours.
