Yeah, and make it removable/upgradeble so I'm not stuck having a useless gizmo taking up space and weight.

If "hot hatches" were anything close to this from the factory, like maybe 300-400HP, and had decent suspensions, I would probably be interested in them. In stock form, forget it.

Pretty sure if I heard this without the video, I would imagine a jetski skipping over waves

It still baffles me that Rally isn't the most popular motorsport in the States. It is certainly more entertaining then watching a couple dozen billboards drive in circles.

*Vanquish.

Whoa, simmer down there buddy. It's both. I (also an EE) calculated the transient response of my router once (yeah, I'm that nerdy) and it was about 3 seconds. Obviously I had to make some assumptions, but calling it ten seconds to nincompoops on the phone allows for people counting faster, getting impatient, etc.…

Ahem, but isn't the answer always Miata? ;-)

Depth perception does not require brake lights.

I'm pretty sure he was referring to counter-steering once you have initiated the slide... so he could have said it better by saying 'if you want to go left in the dirt, turn left, until you slide, then turn right and apply throttle carefully until you can maintain your angle of attack around the corner'.

I played Age of Empires, this one time, and those cannons weren't so loud through my speakers.

Good guy lawyer, or am I pushing it too far?

It would be dumb to sell something and re-buy the exact same thing. But, as the article states, this isn't about re-buying the same thing. It's about changing styles and reducing stuff.

If you don't want to do that, fine. Some people like having the same furniture for decades. Good on you, if that suits you.

"The radio is for old fogeys. The youths these days listen to their rock and roll on records. Let's put a record player in our cars!"

My question is, how does the map change when you actually include all GM truck models... Isn't it fairly well known that GMC/Chevy combined has outsold Ford for the majority of Ford's "Best Selling Pickup" stint?

The future looks a lot like 1999 to me..

It has every single one of the significant's.
