Just got back from a short vacation in Paris with the wife. Snapped this pic at Charles de Gaulle just before boarding:

And this is why I’ll be driving my 2011 Acura TSX until the wheels fall off.

The likely only indication the pilots got was noise or immediate change in aircraft performance. Otherwise....nothing.

Christ, it’s like Boeing has decided to subcontract its manufacturing to the ghost of the British car industry.

One of the few that I agree with him on is that the government should take over/run any company that must be bailed out if they’re deemed “too big to fail”.

Right wing cooks up deceptively edited footage of biden hugging his niece to try and play him off as a pedophile all while ignoring the fact that their Chosen One is a confessed rapist.

“But Mexico will pay the tariffs” said Trump... lying... again... and right-wing “economists” on Fox News will tie themselves in knots trying to back him up.

You’re the journalist, do the research yourself.

So Trump’s going to destroy the Mexican economy and reduce illegal immigration at the same time? Yeah... good luck with that, amigo.

Made sense to me.

Agreed. Also cars these days are far more reliable than they were in the past, so buying used is not a huge gamble. About six years ago I bought my 2011 Acura TSX from Carmax. It had 95K miles and they wanted $14 for it. With my trade-in I got a Carmax warranty and walked out owning the car outright after writing them…

Super cute, super cheap and happy to hold my baguette? She’s a keeper!

The Lamborghini Diablo headlights were so cool that Nissan ripped them off for the 300ZX.

And Nancy Pelosi caused the deficit to go up in 2017 and 2018 when she was not Speaker. It’s very complicated.

$100,000.00 for a truck... I mean... really.... come on, people... that’s why we can’t have nice things.

But we need at least 19" wheels to fit over the 15" rotors that come with the 6 piston caliper Brembo brakes on the crossover that my wife drives to the grocery store and to take the kids to soccer practice. She needs to be able to consistently brake from 120 mph to 15 mph on those hairpin turns and do so without…

“Lyndon Johnson was a car guy”

You’re right, though. It the car we want does exits, just not in America.

If I recall, one of the complaints about the CR test was that they strapped on this contraption that was supposed to catch the car in case of a rollower (imagine a spider with horizaontal tires on each leg) and this added weight tanded to throw the car off balance.

Will the market absorb it, though? I really feel auto manufacturers should be producing plug-in hybrids for the current U.S. market, if not exclusively, then at least as an option for consumers who aren’t ready to go full-electric just yet. One day there will be EV charging stations at every Cracker Barrell restaurant…
