So Uber wants to Lyft you?

Everyone I know that has a 1+ ton truck tows a boat, travel trailer, 5th wheel or a uses it to haul payload. I had an F-150 that I towed a 35 ft travel trailer with.

Neutral: What Must Automakers And Regulators Do To Convince People About Self-Driving Cars?

The M Coupe is a fantastic choice, if one can be found, and the maintenance budget allows for it.

Ford is simply increasing its overall production capacity. Increased business for an American company which is good for all the mid level management who earn a nice modest living with the company and all the dealer personnel who earn a living selling and repairing Ford products. It’s also good for consumers who won’t

Your name is Vin, so you’re hardly impartial where the Fast and Furious movies are concerned.

This pre-emptive announcement has to be some sort of viral marketing stunt to drive awareness and theater attendance. Dammit. It’s working. I’ll probably have to see this now.

Tremors looked like a terrible idea for a movie too, but its a hilarious classic.

Why keep ringing up a history created by people that are dead now? Has the Cruze Diesel been a rolling disaster? How about the Colorado diesel? How is that one doing? Oh yeah, it’s easier to hate on a company for what it did 40 plus years ago than pay attention to what they’re doing now under FAR better management.

No matter how big the boat is, the mass the elevator lifts will always be the same, as the mass of water displaced is equal to the mass of the ship. Thanks Archimedes!

I believe that most people honestly underestimate how incredibly hard it is to make a good car, and how much harder it is to make one that satisfies the various regulatory bodies. Look at the students doing FSAE, which are quite simple cars, and the difficulties they have. Now extend this to all the various systems.

I think the people who started protesting about police killings are probably not the same people breaking into businesses now. Opportunistic dinguses use a hubbub like a protest to start worse and scarier shit methinks.

Oh yes you can, as long as the next exit is before the next cop.
