Somehow I don’t think they’re going to be racing on Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires like the publicity images show.

I find this far less annoying than GM’s insistence on using the reverse lights as parking lights.

I’m glad I found something that gets a pass. :-)

Now playing

Bad take is bad. Inline 4s can sound good; even modern ones.

You have to know how much to scold your minions somehow...

There’s a yellow spider eyed Tiburon like those photos in my neighborhood - I chuckle to myself every time I see it.

Not entirely though. The King’s Highway 401 is usually called ‘the 401' in Ontario, and similar for the other numbered highways.

For what it’s worth, I worked as a co-op for four years under Brad Wieferich (well, technically under one of the engineers there) when he was the branch manager of the MDOT Marshall Transportation Service Center. I didn’t interact with him daily, but nonetheless I have nothing but good to say about him. He was an

And we know you’re not from Michigan because you call it ‘the 94'.

Yeah, it seems you’re right. I wrote without checking the facts.

With all due respect, I’m not sure you understand the time differential between these two methods of transport.

I wouldn’t worry about the HPFP so much, that’s only about $550 for a kit to replace it, and you can do it in a driveway or garage with hand tools and without even jacking the car up.

That difference in cargo volume hardly counts as it’s with the seats up (trunk only) for the Camry and seats down (trunk and back seat) for the RAV4.

Because it can’t possibly cost anywhere near as much as my 535xi MT wagon to maintain, that’s why.

I think everyone talking about the Great Lakes not being ‘calm water’ is missing the point in a couple of ways.

Along with the Caspian sea, I see the Great Lakes being a potential area where Ekranoplans might make sense.

I think it is important to point out that the trailer being towed is not, strictly speaking, just a semi trailer. It is either a full trailer, or a semi trailer being towed by a trailer dolly.
