10 years ago we bought an armada. Kids are grown up now. Now I work from home. We rarely use it for what it’s worth. This year we decided, 52 hikes in 2022. I came home one day and the wife said “Did you know some people take out their back seats and put in matresses?”

Not sure which brand it is but the ones we buy even come with a nice little bio on the hen of the month. Hows that for smugness? :p

I like biking offroad myself, but I’ll star you just because I can’t stand the cyclist arrogance. They seem to think those traffic laws only need to be followed when it’s convenient for them. I love when I’m going 20 and they pass me on the right without about 3" of clearance and then yell at me when I get 23.5" from…

How is this not an Avalanche? Is that name tainted? It’s got the look. The one I don’t like. The short bed, combined with the cab, back end opens into the back seat thing... I know yall have better names for those features...

I once had to write an email marketing system that also had monthly billing. You aren’t kidding about time being hard...

I thought they were selling to recycle them down to metals, not reuse on another 20 year old vehicle.  is that wrong?

Much like the rash of Meth-heads we had ripping copper out of air conditioners. My first year I was in nashville someone absolutely destroyed four AC units on the roof of a daycare for what would have turned out to be very little money. But the damage was $20k and the impact on the children, parents and business was…

That second to last picture, the one with the van... What are they using for the lift point?  That rear one looks like it’s just hooked the rear wheel arch... which I know it can’t be, that’s not going to support crap.  The front one looks more like it’s somehow connected to the top of the wheel.  But still.  Tell me…

This seems pretty obvious to me. The plane dies. He jumps out, dives for a while. Looks up. Plane above. He’s not happy with his footage so he waits for it to swing back around, climbs back in and then starts the engine, climbs back up , re-packs the chute, and does it over again. Maybe 3 or 4 times because this…

You know TILE was already doing this and has been for a few years already right? The difference is apple did their usual thing. Let someone come out and be the first to market and test the waters. Then you come out with one that just seems to ‘work better’ in most ways the mass market would use it.

I haven’t seen how far between that choice was made and when he had to make the second choice. I don’t read this as him seeing this as a third option. I understood it as he had to make that choice further up the hill when he was going 45, not that bad. But then by the time he got to the bottom he was going a lot…

It’s hard to chose between if I rear end that semi with my semi I’m likely to die vs if I choose to hit those smaller vehicles I’m much less likely to die, but I’m not so sure they won’t.  And choosing to die because you deserve death, and choosing to die because you’re brakes failed are also factors.  And having to…

This sounds like a non-story.  There’s a lot missing here before anyone is going to get outraged over this...

I’m currently at 0% risk, and we have 0% confidence that there’s someone in the path ahead.

Say you do manage to get ahead of it without being hit.  Then you come to stopped traffic, and intersection, anything at all that makes you not be able to outrun it.  Suddenly now you are the one in it’s path.  You have actually increased the odds of it finding a victim where before it may have ended it’s roll of…

Nope, you can tell by the flicker that it’s an LED. And unlike incandescent lights, which can change color slightly as they warm, an LED has a ‘relatively’ fixed wavelength. And even the little change it does go through is all less than a second after it comes on. I’m pretty sure that LED isn’t ever going to go…

Here’s a different take.  Don’t pass the bill.  Shit can it.  That’s where it belongs.  Just like the last one they passed it’s going to be a bunch of political payback for their own interests.  This bill is supposedly good for ‘the people’ then why are you putting something that’s obviously a union payback in there…

Wow, seeing that blind spot illustration shows exactly what I was experiencing.  And the low speed of it being in the school zone seemed to make it worse.  When school zone wasn’t ineffect the roads where 45 and 25 MPH.  That made sure that if someone started in your blind spot by the time you got to the intersection…

WTF is going on with these? I’d love to have one as a project car, but not for these prices:

I almost nailed one last month. Same A Pillar problem in my Armada. My wife was yelling at me, are you just planning on hitting them? My response, hitting who? Oh S***!
