I’m honestly amazed that Tesla has gotten as far as it has, given their all-out war against the Middle Man.

there’s something really unsatisfying about building a fake ocean liner that will never see the ocean.

Yeah but at least you have a battleship you can visit any time you want!

A high-torque, 1/2" battery powered impact is the biggest time- and injury-saver. Back in the day, I made due with a cheapo 2' breaker bar and 4' cheater pipe on it, and I still hurt myself a couple times using it from flying chrome off broken sockets, as well as busting knuckles when a stubborn bolt would finally…

Jeremy did warn us in the beginning of the first episode that the second episode was not even close to being about cars, so I was sort of expecting more generic shenanigans. I have higher hopes for episode 3.

Copper-nickel brake lines are where it’s at these days. More corrosion-resistant than stainless, and WAY easier to flare and bend into position than any type of steel lines.

The BMW 750il offers you a V12 in the body of the best era of the 7 Series and one of the best BMW designs of all time. You can get it with a manual.

The morality of whomever or whatever you swear allegiance to is irrelevant to the definition of a traitor. An SS officer who defected from the Third Reich, was and still is a traitor.

Winning or losing has nothing to do with traitor status.

Good riddance, traitors.

Even their wives can’t make that guarantee, how can you possibly be so sure?

The law has never mattered for people who are corrupt and connected.

Also possible, I was just speculating based off what was ostensibly revealed.

Fair point. I also like Ford more than I do the police, so there’s that too.

So either the engineers rigged the recorded data to show that they weren’t speeding, OR the cops that pulled them over are corrupt and lied about the speed they were clocked at.

The three Mustangs in red, white & blue was so ridiculously over the top, it crossed the line twice and became awesome again.

5000 ft lbs at the wheels, which are rotating at ~162 RPM when the engine is at 2,000rpm, putting out 400 ft lbs. Mechanical advantage.
