Given Duke’s investment in nuclear power (I’m looking at you, nuclear facility that was used to film The Abyss way back in the late 80's), I have little confidence this venture will be very successful, either.

What makes me sick is a trend in my local area... of lifted pickups like the one in the first photo.... with handicap tags. I’ve yet to see a single person riding in one or driving that exhibited any sign of a physical handicap, especially when climbing in and out of the damned things.

That transmission reputation somehow managed to slip through EVERY redesign the car had. The AXOD transaxles and their descendants were garbage.

Don’t you just love how they’re all willing to call you stupid for even suggesting such a thing, like they think all the criminals in the world are brighter than you (and them)?

Never thought I’d see the day where my brain superimposed “clown car” for most incidents of “Ford Expedition” in any article....

Given the horror stories I’ve heard, I’m still stuck on “wait, there are still people living in San Francisco?”

It was probably in the process of discovering its forever home wasn’t as forever as it thought.

He left off two important tips....

Moral of that movie... Homeless men stop growing at age 14. Because that’s roughly how old my friends and I were when shopping cart racing was a brief fad in our lives. Right down to the stupidity of “I don’t want to deal with it” with regards to what appears to be a compound fracture in the lower leg.

he only smart thing for Jeep to do is ditch the Native American legacy and fall back to its real legacy - WW2. That is, after all, where everything began. Start switching the vehicle names to names inspired by events (or heroes) of the war. Start by changing the name of the Jeep Cherokee to the Jeep Normandy.

Obviously, United Parcel Service hasn’t realized... when they go full electric, people will begin to refer to their trucks as uninterruptible power supplies. :D

Actually, here in the US there is a tourist trade for railbike riders. There are lots of retired lines in the American Southwest where you can hop on a railbike and take a ride. And apparently making your own railbikes and carts is a subcomponent of the hobby as well.

Officially, the bridge was rebuilt in 2013 to support rail traffic in both standard 1.435 meter gauge and Russian 1.542 meter broad gauge. Why on earth they decided they needed to lay four rails instead of three is beyond me, unless there is maybe some sort of difference in the rail’s riser as well.

Since a km is equal to about 6/10 of a mile, 7 football fields is roughly the part of a mile that isn’t in a kilometer. :D

Sorry, but you’re making money from it. So, this is a performance. Thus schtick. And it seems you’re quite rapidly approaching the limit to get smacked down by your town again. At least have the sense to build some enclosed parking space you can hide them in.

Okay.... For April Fool’s Day, you have to do an article entitled “What You Get When You Slam a Jeep FC and Changli Together at Their Top Speeds”.

I have a 1994 Honda Accord with a stock 2.2 liter, 4 cylinder engine. It is capable of pegging the speedometer at 140 MPH. A LOT of cars are capable of speeds in excess of 100 MPH.

Not only that, but he seems to not understand that the west coast smog problems that spurred car emissions rules for the last half century were the result of ground vehicle exhaust, not jet engines. If everybody suddenly started driving instead of flying, air quality would plummet faster than annual temps rise.

ahhhhh.... aren’t you cute! Go look up the “Tommy Westphall Universe”.

I wonder.... How much influence corporate parent VW’s dieselgate had in driving this course of action for Porsche.
