I seem to remember a comparison done on dirt every day, between an old flat fender Jeep and a new side by side ATV. The sxs was more powerful, faster, more comfortable, and safer. But the Jeep had more payload/passenger capacity and, more importantly, was street legal!

I am astonished at the progress made in traction control/stability control on motorcycles. Once these systems are sufficiently refined, it will be nearly impossible to lay down a bike on the road unintentionally. This is a large concern to some non-riders I know, and is one of the major reasons preventing them from…
Be careful with what you find in Grandpa’s closet. Pins, armbands and other innocuous minutia is one thing, but a LOT of WWII soldiers also brought back small arms and even grenades as trophies. A bolt action rifle or semiautomatic pistol is fairly common to find in these kinds of war caches, and can be kept or sold…
Yes.
Not the kind of fitness I’m talking about.
Do you disagree? If so, why?
Motorcycling is not popular in the United States because frankly, it requires effort and a basic level of physical fitness. Both of these things preclude a huge portion of Americans from utilizing motorcycles as daily transportation.
This would be much more impressive if they fixed the cables going below the bare frame, to the MIDDLE of the bare frame, not inches away (and symmetrically fore-and-aft) from the cable suspending the frame.
Great option, internal locking storage is a great thing to have in a pickup, even for people who don’t have guns.
Using the same cab as the F-150 is a great cost-saving and repair-procedure-simplifying move. Kudos for that!
These divorce services wouldn’t be required if people simply stopped marrying each other.
I’m a Ford guy, and even I admit that that front end is hideous.
Deer strikes on a motorcycle SUCK. I struck a deer at ~35mph on an urban road on my Virago back in 2005. Went down hard, had some major road rash on my knee (was wearing slacks as I was riding home from work), fortunately I had a leather jacket on. Bruised up all over.
In ten years when the Sentinel’s resale value has dropped like a slug of plutonium, I will be there, waiting.
Bolt action, lever action, even single shot rifles were originally designed for war (i.e. shooting people). AR-15s are just a newer design. If AR-15s are assault rifles, then so are Remington 700s, Winchester 94s, Marlin 1895s, Trapdoor Springfields, etc.
Yeah they fold in half.
Anxiety is very much a first world problem.
With a taller pickup, the key isn’t so much the truck as it is the ramps you use to load and unload. A full size 10 foot long, 4 foot wide, arched ramp is absolutely worth a couple hundred bucks because you can ride heavy/low slung motorcycles up into the bed very slowly, with the ability to use your feet as…
Miata for the pawns, because they’re small, inexpensive, yet they always seem to win at the end of the day.
