I think that we can all say that for all the years we’ve watched these 11'8" Bridge videos, and for all the schadenfreude we’ve experienced watching trucks partially rip their roofs off, or rip off other attachments, before coming to a sudden halt, THIS is what we’ve all really been hoping for. This is peak 11'8".

Calling him out for... discussing a video that is about a Tesla. Which is an accurate discussion of what occurs in the video.

I dare you to listen to Billie sing acapella and then Rihanna without autotune and tell us who you think is better. Perfectly fine not to like her music, but Billie is wildly talented.

Stop trying to make SAV happen! It’s not going to happen BMW!

Uhh..... 120% Legit

I think I had one of those 20 years ago... and if not that, something like it. The wheels and body had customizable features and the car was charged via the remote control.

This article just reminded me that I really want a Citroen DS. [le sigh]

In Germany (and since we’re all brethren over here, that is normally: the EU) a passenger side mirror wasn’t mandatory until ‘90. IIRC even the first W124 came without when not ordered.

Aww. I thought the mountain was going to open and be a cooler or some kind of chip and guac set up....or both! And one of the train cars could be a tanker that dispenses nacho cheese sauce. Now that would be awesome.

1.2 million is ‘middle class retirement, if you’ve got the house paid off and don’t plan on buying more cars’. It’s only ‘private island and private plane’ money if you’re renting both for a week before you go back to work.

Stellantis could literally shove a Chrysler badge on this and sell it immediately here in the states. I think it’d sell. 

I find this a difficult hill to order somebody to die upon. The statement at the end rings true. If I gave a cashier (or vending machine) more than exact change for a purchase, I would want change back, whether it’s one cent or $400. It doesn’t go to the entity that received the overage amount.

Clearly a YMMV situation, since my truck’s wipers will freeze in place any time there’s enough sunlight to melt the precipitation on the glass, then refreeze before I start it.

They, and most good modern cars, have a service position. Generally, when you turn the car off, you hold down the wiper stalk for a couple seconds, and the arms swing up to the “full-wipe” position. Then you can lift/change to your heart’s content.

I work in advertising (commercial production) and I can tell you exactly why: people take themselves too seriously nowadays.

Bullitt didn’t make the cut because half the test audience was asleep by the time the car chase started.
