While I commend Toyota for producing *any* newly made replica parts, how about some bodywork? Make the JDM urethane bumpers available as new, and I bet they’d recoup the investment—screw all the BS fiberglass bodykits, gimme something actually durable. Given the popularity of lowered cars in today’s car culture (be it…

Dude, you’re not “starting a dialogue,” you’re just being an asshole trying to justify any amount of defending Chappelle being a bigot. I already wasted enough time reading through this thread, and your questions contributed next to nothing. You notice how you’re getting dragged from all directions for your take? Kind…

Literally my response verbatim when I read this story elsewhere. Star for saying it so they can hear you in the back.

“So, if their creativity is going to be stifled by being a part of AT&T, the question becomes: why wouldn’t it have been stifled well before during its time as a possession of TimeWarner, then AOL-TimeWarner, then Time Warner again?”

While I agree that Netflix has a terrible quality threshold (or effectively none), they do still have a variety of exclusives/originals besides “Stranger Things” I’ve greatly enjoyed—the problem is that half of these (which are series) get axed after 1 or 2 seasons despite being objectively good or fun, but yet there…

I respectfully disagree that Bond would work in a Volvo--he couldn't manage a decent chase scene with all the collision avoidance tech of their modern offerings.

Agreed. One more consideration that comes to mind in the tradeoff is tire contact patch (also affecting range because of rolling resistance). The BMW i3 went with an unconventional wheel size (19 or 20x5.5, I think) to try to have a decent contact patch with narrower wheels for better aerodynamics. Most EVs are…

He is just one giant asshole, so I don't think he has any other option.

I hear face tattoos are gaining popularity these days.

I will say it again, and until the day I die: fuck convicted rapist Brock Turner, and I’m glad a professor (I forget her name and for what university) literally put his name and picture next to a textbook definition of "rapist.” No matter how good a swimmer he is, may he never outrun that label.

This.

Audible laughter from me. Well done, take your star.

Here my money was on them trying for liberal tears, but I’m sure evaporation would be a problem.

Shut up, troll.

Goddammit, why can’t we have nice things? The range works fine with this system, the price is downright reasonable, it’s even got the CUV height proportions (scaled down, I know) that the current market is devouring. Get this in cities everywhere, I say.

I’m not super knowledgeable on the subject of the ills of Teamsters, but may I also submit that the police union is also abjectly terrible nearly all of the time.

Also, I may or may not own one of the shirts in question:

No worries, I just have that headline image burned into my brain, for some reason. You revived fond memories of the “pretty sure that’s a Lambo” (was there a “dude” at the end, too?) bit, as well.

“Has to be really sitting on the roof to be a baseline Orlove.”

Orloved.
