Okay, got it, I’m an asshole. Sorry for ruining the joke, guys. Sarcasm meter is completely broken/nonexistent.

Exactly. I’d say this would be easier to disassemble and put back together than the aforementioned cheap motorcycles.

I’ve seen cheaply-built motorcycles go for double that price, brand new, that would not last nearly as long as this bike. Nice price.

I thought the execution was pretty good.

*Holden Commodore (the car the G8 was based on)

Mind. Blown.

Possibly. The group that published it on YouTube is called Dorkly.

My exact thought.

Turns out, the engineer had something to say about this very subject:

We might not get world peace, but MotoMott is right, life is now changed.

Much, much rejoicing.

COTD.

Lesney* not Lesley.

Ertl might predate the Lesney Matchbox tractor, but this is what I was thinking of. I had one when there was a re-release of the Lesley Matchbox vehicles.

My first guess was the farm tractor. Quite interesting and educational.

Even if a person is well-versed in all things automotive, a an extra pair of eyes can help avoid abject failure in buying a vehicle, and can help retain objectivity in an otherwise emotional purchase.

Next up: Tesla’s engineering facility is a real-life X-Mansion.

LOTS of hours rolling down the highways in my teenaged years, trying to dodge traffic and outrun the police in the 959 and F40. I’ve played emulator versions and The Duel still kicks my ass, despite being fairly competent in Burnout Paradise, Gran Turismo, and Forza.

Both of these are brash, beautiful concepts. I’d especially love to see a 2wd electric dirt bike that weighs less than 220 lbs, one of those could really be fun on a trail!
