yep, we went into a bike store in Richardson and saw their bikes. Yep, id rather miata.

Beluga is a plane too, Caracal is a helicopter, Leopard...we’ve seen it before, and Cheetah is in Grand Theft Auto series (and better leave it there). My personal type is Platypus, actually.

We have one thats like a 28" tall one that we just HAD to have to use as a stationary bike, because my parents like to BUY NOW RESEARCH LATER. turns out it doesnt work with the stationary bike apparatus we were given. and so its collected dust ever since. we HAVE to get $200 for it and nothing less. its been…

GMC already makes bikes.

BUT I WANT TO RIDE INSIDE TONY STARK

Oh I’m well aware of that. I always keep an eye on them to see what crackpot prices they’re charging. Not too long ago an E39 M5 with like 300 miles sold for around $150,000. Absolutely insane.

That’s a great question. I have no idea how state/local taxes play into basis, and the “appreciating car” hypo you propose is a great example. It would be interesting to speculate, but there’s an answer buried in the tax code or a tax court case out there, and I don’t know where it is.

The thing that seems fishy to me is that these guys are going to auctions.

Both Mannheim and Adessa require dealers licenses to partake in the auctions both online or in person...

These guys are dealers...

This was a purposeful choice by VW. They have to get 85% of the cars off the road by the end of 2018 or face massive penalties ($100 million per 1%). If they only paid out to people who owned the car before the settlement date and still own the car, many cars would remain on the road and they would miss the target.

I’m an overall fan of these features. I think the tech will get better and better and soon (5-10 years) we’ll all be sipping coffee while cars drive themselves fully and safer than we can as humans. There will be teething pains but as long as I can still drive when I want to, I don’t mind getting some time back…

Location vs shape are two different things. Somewhat related funny story. I was once on a date with a girl and she asked if I could blow heat through the vents on the dash. I always use only the lower vents for heat, or a combo of low vents and defrost. I don’t like the hot air blowing in my face, it bothers my…

Even if it is just a marketing gimmick who cares? This is a small team of engineers doing what they can with what they got. Just the fact that they built a hellcat in secret then got it green lit for production and now they are making a widebody single seater demon.....I think that is pretty cool.

Seems to me like it’s just a way for them to keep the costs down for a higher profit margin. An air delivery system that is just a series of channels will be cheaper than one with 4 (or more) moving louvers at the ends.

Yeah, it’s kinda a NJ and OR thing.

Actually the pump just mixes the two to get mid range gas, s essentially your doing the same thing.

My dad used to tell me that allowing the fuel level to get below a quarter tank (half tank in the winter) would damage the engine. I asked him about it recently when I was riding with him and saw his fuel light come on, and he admitted that he only said that to keep me diligent about fuel levels so I wouldn’t be…

This exact thing happened to me. I was always in the “suped-up” makes more sense category, looking down on the lessers who clearly didn’t know how to spell. I let this frustration out (here, I believe) and was quickly humbled. I think a part of me would still prefer it be “suped-up,” but the history behind…

Even more realistic - this is just a GM exec running around in his lambo, but the company told him he had to cover it up so no one would think they were making a mid-engine corvette.

Lol low price eh. The one I just saw at the Toronto boat show for 114k disagrees

I never understood 4-post lifts until now. That sliding jack within the lift clears things up for me.
