Maybe it’s the wide angle lens, but that didn’t look like an impossible spot to me.

From a political perspective, vehicles are first and foremost an economical concern (both because of the financially massive new/used car market and because trucks are an absolute necessity for our entire economy to function by moving goods). The close second place concern is environmental. We absolutely have vested…

I get no discernible hum introduced that wasn’t already there from the input, even at maximum volume. I usually run it at ~1/2 volume and adjust software volume to taste. And make no mistake, even with a paltry 20 watts, this thing makes HUGE sound at max volume, with the A70s

I have Sennheiser HD-555s that I use when I want. The speakers are nice for listening to music when away from the desk, and just because I don’t like always having headphones on.

No sir, just a Lian-Li aluminum case (the same one that Velocity Micro used for their builds). I’ve had three rebuilds inside this same case which I got back in ‘07.

If you’re in the middle of the wilderness, far from civilization where a wolf attack is likely, especially if you’re alone, you should be carrying a gun. Fire a warning shot at the ground near one of the wolves, they will very likely turn tail and flee from the loud noise.

Of course, sleeping naked has other benefits, especially if you have a partner, as skin-to-skin contact is not only therapeutic, but a great form of medicine for both your mind and your body.

the newer M939 series 5-ton trucks (the old M35A2 is a 2.5 ton truck) are a little more expensive, going price of about $8,000 to $10,000 for one in reasonable condition. But it’s worth the extra money. Even bigger, twice the payload (in full off road terrain), much better, more powerful, newer turbodiesel engines, 5…

I absolutely adore high mileage supercars. They are indeed fulfilling their ultimate purpose (to be driven).

No offroading? 2005-2010 Honda Odyssey.

Minivans rarely have a payload capacity beyond 1500lbs. Very easy to overload one of those with American sized people alone, to say nothing of heavy cargo.

Why is body-on-frame better for a mid-size (or even small) truck?

So when is someone going to build a real Special Stage Route X, here in the States?

Parking is the main reason, yes. I also don’t like crowds or heavy traffic.

PPA is the main reason I never stop in Philadelphia (I live about an hour north of Philly).

The Porsche 911 Turbo S matches the Tesla’s 0-60 time, and it can do it all day. The Tesla starts to overheat after doing three 0-60 launches. The 911 Turbo S will also do north of 200mph flat out. The Tesla stops at 155.

Too much ego, not enough driving talent in this country.

A real car olympics would be pitting cars best suited for a specific sport against each other, resulting in a different car from each country for each individual event.

My advice is to scrap the entire drivetrain and build it with something more modern and readily (read: cheaply) available.
