"Could someone pass the ham please."

My wife and I were discussing this same topic last night, and noted that even though I have some legal background, I had no clue what the details were. It sounds like it really functions pretty similar to a personal bankruptcy, just on massive scale and with lots of suck. Also, fantastic infographic.

I was just driving in downtown Detroit last night and it's bad enough all of the streetlights are off since they can't afford the power, plus the roads require a truck to surpass them without falling apart. This will be fun...

We raze the whole thing and build our own version of the Nurburgring.

I'm with you except for the turbo. Call me a purist, but a Honda should be NA, rev happy, simple, and light.

With regard to trail braking, there are two primary advantages, and a driver will actually use the technique to achieve the desired line in a corner (outside-inside-outside), using all of the track. The primary reasons for trail-braking are:

Backing up a triple trailer.

Free Google maps does voice too.

"Let's see, I could crush it and make 500 bucks, or sell it to you and triple my money....I dunno, it's such a hard choice...."

What a douche.

I was curious where the traffic uptick came from. Here is a pic to spread the sadness. I'm assuming its the pic that gave me away.

Next question: How do you sell a car that no one wants to buy?

Tesla Model S has them.

A stick shift? I mean really. This will make most cars at least bearable if not fun.

They're allowed to search any car, with the grounds of suspicious activity, which could mean anything and everything to be allowed to do just that.

The problem is that the Supreme Court says drug checkpoints are not kosher. Non-technically-but-in-reality, these officers are breaking the law themselves in an attempt to catch law breakers.

You're okay with this particular action by the police. The problem with law is that no action is isolated. Precedents are what the law runs on, and this sets one.

Why yes Carroll Shelby would love to do the conga.

I would have an extremely hard time driving this:

could be worse, you could be in a Porsche showroom.
