Society is being ‘compensated’ for his or her 9 mpg Suburban. He or she is paying 4 times as much in gas taxes as is someone getting 36 mpg.

I read an article about the Pinto drop and the amount of permitting it took to do that was insane. The major concern was that nobody knew the “aerodynamics” of a Pinto and how far it would fly from the intended drop zone.

How Stalinesque of you. We gave them the carrot, now is time for the stick. Seriously? Wow, ManicDan gets to decide what is best for America.

He may have pulled it off if the grief stricken son hadn’t been so self-destructive. He pretty much painted a bullseye on himself. It wasn’t till the last episode that his actions paid off. It would have been interesting to see if the cop would have arrested him, knowing an arrest was a death sentence, or if his…

My family are Penobscot Indians. I would be proud to drive a Jeep Penobscot or even a Jeep Grand Penobscot.

Back in 1992, I was looking for a car. I had it in the back of my mind to get something with AWD since I was in the military and not getting to work wasn’t really an option. But I wasn’t totally sold on the idea and kept an open mind. So, I went to a VW dealer, IIRC, and the obviously new salesman took me out in a car…

Wait, Andy Gibb is dead? That shoulda been the lead. I must have missed that with all the Challenger news. Now I’m sad, retroactively!

I found a box of old car electronics, including a vintage Fuzzbuster and an first generation Escort radar detector. I also found an old Pioneer Supertuner II under-dash tape deck, and a Cobra CB Radio.

My 85 Charger had a louvered rear window. It came with two hydraulic struts, which assisted in lifting it up, but couldn’t hold it, so it had a rod for that.  And to think I asked for that option... what was I thinking?  :) 

When I was 16 years old, I lived in the Eastern Panhandle of WV, and I got the opportunity to visit Ft McHenry in Baltimore with a friend’s father. Baltimore is about 90 miles away, so it was a daytrip. Mom got me excused from school for the visit and all was well.

That was just to assist in catapulting them into your ginormous windshield!

In most (not all) cases, the lifted trucks are rarely used for truck stuff. A few monster trucks pull trailers, but no trailer nearing the 13,000 lb towing capacity that they brag about...

I had an 88 Mustang GT with the 85 mph speedo. I could bury the needle in 3rd gear. I was talking to a cop at a convenience store driving a police SSP and he showed me the interior, and the 140 mph speedo.

As a geezer, I can appreciate your sentiment. I own a 93 Ranger XL that I use for a weekend work vehicle hauling trash, mulch, Home Depot purchases, etc. I try not to enter the left lane unless I am passing. I drive 10 mph over the speed limit normally, but the truck has a severe shimmy above 60 mph that has defied…

They will give you a discount on theft coverage, but accident/collision coverage would be enormous to cover the repaint of the mural.

In WV we have Mothman.  And meth heads.  That’s sorta scary!!! 

Plus, if Elon sends an employee that is a veteran to Home Depot to buy the molding, they will get a 10 pct discount on the purchase!

I would agree with your post had you left off the right wing part. FB is an awful ugly platform and clicks come from all areas of the political spectrum.

That is a monster of a pool. I have a 45,000 gallon salt pool that is 9 feet in the deep end. Her pool probably holds that much water in the shallow end!

United sucks for many reasons, including the fact they broke this guys guitar.
