This would be far less likely in the Southern U.S., including Texas. That kinda of behavior might result in an old lady giving you lead poisoning. Not likely in Commifonia.

I see the E-Ray falling in price BETWEEN the Z06 and the Stingray at an $80,000 base and being below $110,000 delivered. The drivetrain is an addition to the base car and most of the parts are already designed to handle it. It may even be something that could be added to a base car if you’re willing to give up the…

I am in the EV industry. Everyone is trying to move away from China but the EPA has made many processes all but impossible to do in the U.S. There’s a lot of factors at play here and it won’t be easy, but we need to move away from China. I realize now they are more dependent on us than we are on them. One serious…

The glitz will NOT last and the big money really isn’t in those “fans” either as you’ve pointed out. They won’t spend money on flags, banners, ball caps and tee-shirts and even worse they don’t want to rub elbows with the typical fan that is really going to make the program successful. The Cowboys (not my team) are…

Guessing you haven’t seen the other side of 170 then.

Personal opinion: ANY time you refer to race as part of a reference to their character it is racism by default. The only exception I believe is one where it is demonstrative to identify a person in a group where that’s the primary difference between them. In a group of people the one tall guy is the tall one, in a…

He shouldn’t have been riding with clipped pedals at that age unless he legitimately rides regularly. It takes balance to do that and his frequent lack of clarity suggests that it was a mistake from the beginning. A staffer picked an athletic bike for the press photos without considering the increased possibility of a…

Don’t bite the hand the feeds you. -

I’m guessing that AAA will only tow from certain locations and it’s possible he misrepresented the location a bit to help the client. Not everyone can really afford his services. The alternative would have been to leave the vehicle which would have likely been destroyed by vandals and file a claim with the insurance…

People are assholes and I imagine the type to toolio that goes to SB all the time has be in the group of the worst humans on the planet when it comes to respecting other people...

I’d never spend money on something like this. There’s not $500k there. It’s mostly advertising and overhead that’s driving up the price. Hell, a fully outfitted sprinter van can be north of $100k easily, yet delivery drivers are putting miles on these things every year. In a few years an Amazon delivery truck will be…

The first car I bought that I really WANTED, was a 1994 Trans Am- 6 Speed. I keep it until a few years ago but had trashed the body racing it and it had seen an accident as well. I bought a roller with less than 90k miles (no engine or trans) of the same year but the color I’d always wanted (mystic teal metallic) but…

I recently had the chance to acquire an example of my first car. Similar at least though not identical. A Mercury LN7 (my car was a Ford EXP) - A 2 seater version of the Ford Escort in the mid to late ‘80s. It was gutless, 100hp on a good day but was pretty sporty actually if not fast. I damaged the drivetrain being…

Why are they so easy to steal??? Seriously.

I would consider it for a Miata for unlimited autocross use. I’d also limit the range to about 75-100 miles because as an autocross car that would be plenty. Issue if the battery weight obviously.

WOW: Directly from THEIR website:

This is essentially theft and fraud, I’m not sure why this is allowed to continue on the internet. Shouldn’t there be some mail fraud associated with this??

They way he talked to her AFTER flipping her car, and his manner an his flippant attitude indicated he had no fear of her and knew she wasn’t a threat. This guy was being a bully and I can imagine that he very likely bullies most of the people he stops. I also image he has a good relationship with the local judge who…

Last year I’d decided to purchase a toy for my 50th birthday. I considered a Porsche, but never a Ferrari. In the end I ordered a 2020 Stingray Corvette (in Sebring Orange). Unfortunately the car became super popular and tons of people spoke to me about the car everywhere we went. We recently took it on a 1300 mile…

I just took delivery of a Sebring Orange 2020 Corvette Stingray Z51. Pretty sure that’s at the top of the list in my middle class neighborhood right now. It USED to be a Audi R8 though an Orange McLaren 720s is sometimes seen at the local grocery store (kinda in the neighborhood I guess). He’s still the champ IMO.
