I used to work at that airport. Just some additional info: The Centennial airport is one of the busiest small airports in the country.
Obviously the Acura is higher-end but how does this compare to the CX-9? My wife keeps talking about trading her CX-5 in for the 9. I’m wondering if this would be worth the upgrade charge.
Took a wrong highway split while going camping. Added about 45 miles to our trip and ended up setting up in the dark. Would not recommend.
It’s not in black? Ew, David.
YES! This is what I’ve been waiting for. Something small, simple, and retro. Just need to convince Mrs. Broken-Aero that we need another ride in the stable.
They have, but there wasn’t a used one for sale in my area when I was looking. There was a Triumph though...
I think you’ve really got MG correct. Not the best, not the worst. But damn do they know how to get that emotional reaction. If one had come up before I bought my Bonnie years ago, I would have jumped at the chance.
1952 Vincent Black Lightning by Richard Thompson. It’s got it all: danger, intrigue, love, tragedy, and a bitchin’ bike that’s nearly unobtainable these days.
It’s situational. Going to get groceries? Pull in forward. Parking in a lot with less traffic? Back in. With the proliferation of back up cameras, especially the ones that curve the limit lines when you turn the wheel, it should only take one try. If you can’t back into a spot in one try, go over to an empty parking…
I like to think of the same problem with music groups. If all of the original Temptations have died or left, is it really The Temptations? When we saw them, there was one original member, so it was The Temptation to us.
My wife’s friend let me drive his 1965 Mustang. He had just bought it from an estate sale and had done nothing to it yet. The brakes were untouched for who knows how many decades. It scared the daylights out of me when I tried to stop. But as he said to me when I got in: “The Go button works!”
I’d personally call it an intermediate bike. It’s got enough power to take you on the highway and forgiving enough to get beyond the basics of riding without getting dangerous. To me, no one should start out on anything over 500cc. The notion of “I need an R1 as my first bike” is just a result of the arms race among…
What I’d love to see is a few smaller cc variants in the classic range. Some beginner bikes that aren’t 600cc+. That’s just not a beginner size imo. I’ve got an 800cc Bonnie, and to add in a little 350/500cc single with modern amenities would be ace.
As long as it works in motorcycles, I say bring it on.
Sure did. It was about 200...3? Maybe? I was driving my dad’s ‘95 Buick Roadmaster Sedan to go to work. I was not informed that the gas gauge sticks at half full once you reach it. So I kept driving it, not noticing that the needle had yet to move the whole drive. And that thing used gas, LT-1 engine and all.
Yeah I still get the occasional official lawyer document when assets get purchased. It was a great experience. Had my desk in the hanger for a while when we were focusing on the dutch roll testing for the A700.

I interned at a now-defunct business jet manufacturer. Part of my work was analyzing the drag during flight, so we used speed tape around the entire jet to reduce as much drag as possible for tests. If you think panel gaps are an issue on cars, you should see what they do on a twin-engine jet.
