I flew yesterday with my daughter who just passed the mask threshold, it was... not pleasant trying to keep her masked. Luckily no one hassled us. I’ll be happy if the FAA rules are relaxed for small children and the vaccinated.

You know..i just realized that my Xterra cant make this drive w/o filling up either. Perhaps the fill up would be a little quicker w/the Xterra but taking 25-30 minutes for a cup of coffee in Frisco is a nice change of pace anyway.

Worse things in life than doing that. :)

I’ve been guilty of naval gazing ...

I can’t find the exact quote now, but I am reminded of a book I read in college about Andrew Carnegie and his business practices.

BS in my opinion. I lived in a country (france) for a long time where you mostly order your car from the factory (very little stock at dealership) and you still have large incentives despite waiting a month or 2 before receiving your car. Why? well let’s say that Hyundai or Kia decide to take market share from other…

They named it ILX to remind us of the Integra anyways. It was always doomed upon the real Integra coming back.

Of course you'd say some dumb shit like this.

But China’s situation is a bit different in that although they do try to control access to outside news, the control is weaker than in other nations (jumping the firewall is very common). The populace is placated mainly due to continual economic growth (padded with fake numbers or otherwise). When things upset that,…

Nailed it. It’s a bluetooth connected remote control for your phone that still requires it’s own 12 volt power.

and when it doesn’t move, they’ll drop the price or auction it off to another dealer.

Generally it was. Airfares are much less expensive and there are many more flights. It was terrible for many airlines, but more for their workers. A lot of pilots and flight attendants either lost seniority when they went to surviving companies or had it so down-graded it didn’t matter.

Quiet consumer, you’ll read what we write and like it. What are you going to do? Go someplace else?

I helped a buddy put sliders on his KDSS truck, routing the hydraulic lines under the frame just behind the driver front tire seems like a mistake. I think that happened because KDSS was added to the 4Runner in 2014, and not part of the initial 5th gen design. By comparison, the 200-series routes its KDSS lines within…

I sometimes take photos of my greatest accomplishments. They’d definitely cause some damage. Lemme see if I can find some pics.

Very true! However, there are no hotels anywhere near most of the places that I end up camping. And a few of the places would ruin a pretty Grand Design or similar in short order.

I suspect they’re including the hourly cost of the hazmat team that did the cleanup, plus a substantial institutional markup.

I’m all for the police arresting the protestors at this point, but this:

That’s what irks me about this whole article.
