Yeah, sure, blame it ALL on competition. It isn’t like any of the Japanese government regulations had any influence.

Some of those features you probably still wouldn’t get today if the government didn’t require them, like power disc brakes, for example. Manual steering was phased out by regulations by the end of the 80's. Perhaps ironically, IIRC, the Ford Escort (US gocart with doors version) was the last vehicle to phase in power…

LOL. I just wonder.... how many people are like “Holy spit! A high end Mercedes for under $25k? Where’s my damned time machine?!” :D

Surprise! The Appalachia hillbillies go all the way up to the Canadian border AND they frequently live in the flatter lands east and west of the range. But they like to be equal opportunity offenders to prop themselves up against their sense of inadequacy. I’ve heard them refer to plenty of European and Asian nationali…

This Jeep documentation is sorely lacking in one important tip - teach your customers the importance of not driving like an asshole in a shitbucket! a year ago, the problem was BMW and Mercedes drivers universally driving like the brown tap. But in the last few months, Jeep drivers locally have been getting in on the…

In what seems like a millennium ago (way back before the first terror attack trying to destroy the WTC), I used to see fixed wing aircraft flying under the GWB fairly often on trips to New England to see relatives. Seen them fly under the suspension bridges leading out of Philly several times, too.

The purple ones are still around..... And there are a few other companies that have had fun and actually made purple tortilla chips.

In the case of Doritos, it refers to the packaging color. Just beware “get me the yellow doritos from the dollar store”. Because not real Doritos and more salt than salted herring.

LOLOLOLOL

This is the Halloweenie in me speaking out but.... Those taillight lenses are round. So if you install them horizontally instead of vertically, you get taillights with creepy swollen eyelids instead. And now you’ll never look at certain Halloween decor the same ever again knowing you can reverse the process and get a…

I had a ride on mower with that same slow leak problem with the back tire. Turned out to be a rim rusted inside the bead lip.

I was all ready to go to the theater to see Goonies a few weeks ago... until I realized the only theater showing it near me is the one I saw Black Panther at with my nephew and the matinee tickets were freaking $26. So yeah, when I get the urge, I just pull out that ticket stub to remind myself that going is a bigger…

Last I heard, three people went on trial and nobody did any prison time. Matter of fact, a quick google search indicates CA lost the cases. The only real repercussions this had was the fact that one or two of the 80's porn studios were shuttered and the federal government had to engage in the absurd seizure of every…

I am amused about a porn history podcast being done by someone with a last name that quite possibly sounds like “anal-lick”

:3 I’m gonna have fun.... “curtesy of Josi’s parents”

KITT has been a Mustang since 2008. And considering the lack of cars manufactured these days, KITT will probably still be a Mustang in the next take on the subject.

Unless you live in the Mid-Atlantic and understand that the batshit in Biden’s head makes Trump look utterly sane... Which Swift should understand considering she’s from the region. But then again, she moved out of the area like a decade and a half ago. Or maybe she’s b33r bug bored and trolling everyone at this point.

Just another bug infestation caused by unwanted guests from China. The damned stunk bugs that have been a problem for most of the last decade arrived in imported Chinese plants that ended up in Bucks County, PA, IIRC (which is right next to Berks). Don’t want spotted lanternflies? Go native with the plants in your…

Didn’t NASCAR used to race at Watkins Glen like 25 to 30 years ago or so? I recall watching the likes of Waltrip, Elliot, and Earnhardt racing there. Matter of fact, IIRC, JD Macduffie died in an accident there in one of those televised races.

RE: leasing. There is this thing called Lysol. It kills the b33r bug. When you have selected a new vehicle, inform the dealership that you will be disinfecting all that is unholy inside the vehicle before taking possession. If they have an issue with that, go elsewhere to do business. Seriously, people, learn how to…
