The kind of special idiot who thinks buying a 707-HP car will get them all the love and attention they crave so much in their lives?

I’m fairly certain that cars are shipped on what is basically a humongous ferry. They’re not containerized or palletized. Each and every one is driven on/off the ship individually, via a ramp. The ships won’t be waiting for open berths with cranes, nor will they be waiting for truck chassis as containers do. I’m also…

I’d seriously be thinking about trying to do without her car for a while. Sell it now, get by with just your car for a bit, and hopefully the market will cool soon.

Well, it kinda depends on where you live. For some people, “several hours” doesn’t get them anywhere close to anywhere they might find a better deal. 

Wait, you negotiated price AFTER special ordering the car?

I laugh about the “i wish i had it that good” people. So, uh... why don’t you move to Ottumwa and get a job with JD, then you CAN have it that good. Well obviously now might not be the best time, but even when they aren’t striking, I’d wager you could walk into HR in Ottumwa almost any day of the week and get hired. 

Any tips on getting your significant other to A) not make a complete fucking mess of the can’s rim and B) actually put the fucking lid back on the can? I’ve always done fine just leaving the paint in the can an using a mallet to put the lid down tight. My girlfriend however makes a mess of the rim with the paint, then…

I’m in MN and I love my plug in electric snow blower. My driveway is 2 cars wide and about 50 feet long. It won’t deal with very well the sloppy/slushy snow we get about once a year, but the rest of the winter it works wonderfully. What I love most is that right now it’s hanging from a bicycle hook in my shed. I…

Most noise per gallon, that’s for sure!

First gear: $6B / 10,000 workers is $600,000 per striking worker. I’d be fucking pissed and standing on a corner with a sign too. Yes, I know that 10k isn’t all of JD’s workers and yes, I know that the math isn’t that simple, but for fuck’s sake, even 100x the number of workers dividing that profit results in a life…

Seems like there could possibly be a strong demand for good looking aftermarket grilles for these... but then, the people who buy them aren’t exactly the type to do any mods. 

It’s like there is only a certain amount of grille available in the world and with the advent of Tesla the Mustang Mach-E and other electrics not needing a grill, Toyota decided to buy that market share and put it to good use.

It’s like the seat is suffering from an anaphylaxis...

Ha, ha, yeah... It was long before everyone had a camera in their pocket at all times, but we had a guy come in who wanted to buy a “assemble it yourself” trailer. The trailers came in a box that was about 2 feet long, 2 feet wide, and a foot tall. It weighed around 700lbs. The problem was the guy didn’t have a truck…

While I can appreciate how “clever” this is... having worked in a lumberyard in my youth, I can say that nearly no one is going to pay any attention to it. Every single one of us has seen a severely overloaded car or truck on the road. Those drivers aren’t ignorant of their load, they just don’t care.

Frontal area looks ginormous! Page 17 of this document from Ford says the maximum recommended frontal area for towing with a Maverick is 40 sqft. That’s trailer and truck combined frontal area. If the box of this trailer is 7'9" wide and 8' tall, that’s 62 sqft. Some of that will be blocked by the truck, but assuming…

Was this a sponsored post because that thing is huge and hideous. It is not in any way “seriously cool”, or “tiny”.

The camper is 10 feet tall to boot. That guy wrestling the kayak off the roof is 1 slip on a non-non-skid surface, or trip on a roof vent, solar panel, crossbar... away from a 10 foot fall onto his head. No. thanks.

Their memory kind of depends on the material the insulation is made from, the stiffness of the conductors, and the diameter of the coil.
