I don’t know if you’ve seen it in person, but the Hot Pepper Red is a really nice color! That computer image mockup does not do it justice.

I’m not positive, but I’m pretty sure that was a Tom Cruise lookalike haha.

Oh, so to “them” it’s feature, not a bug.

I have ZERO bearing on whether this is a ND or NP, but man has the design aged well. If there were a couple more hard angles on it you’d be able to convince me it was a current model.

Out of all the bullshit quoted in this article, this stuck out to me the most -

Of course not.  It’s more the time factor vs cost.  Looking at at least $100 for two rings then I’d have to rig up some sort of way to seal the bottom and make the vents for the secondary ignition.  I think the best way to do it will be cut a $40 metal trash can in half because the corrugations allow it to vent itself…

You could, but they’re pretty expensive. Almost to the point it’s more economical to buy a Solo Stove.  I’m looking into doing this with a galvanized steel trash can.  I’m trying to see how long it may last but am having trouble finding anything concrete.

A 20 quart stock pot is pretty small, I’m wracking my brain trying to think of other materials that could be used. Any ideas? If you can get your hands on it, a stainless steel clothes washer or dryer tub would probably work well. Does anyone know of any good videos that demonstrate this?

Exactly what I was thinking.

Haha, even the actual teams are having trouble simulating the porpoising.  

Probably not too much if you’re on appropriate terrain.  I bet on asphalt you’d get a nice flat spot though.

Good follow-up article Elizabeth.  Classy move.

Great article! Just one small typo -

That’s hella cool, but I’d rather just have the skid block with the track wear to mount on my wall.  I wonder if there’s a place you can buy unaltered parts.

This is what I took away from the article too.

Beat me to it; damn.

Moneyball is one of the best movies ever made. It’s a near perfect movie.

When I was a new to being a toddler parent, I used “Be Careful” all the time and then it dawned on me that they had no idea what that meant. So now I mostly say, “Slow down, and pay attention”. It gets them to assess the situation and the consequences more critically. Also, I don’t mind if they find some things out…

I honestly can’t imagine how many they could sell if they were able to fulfill orders.  Every time I see one on the road (rarely) I’m surprised by how nice they look.  I know the interior leaves a lot to be desired, but it’s an economy car.

I freaking love this song.  This and Out of My Head.
