There’s no defending the BMW driver for his actions but the Ford driver was also quite an asshole. It’s worth noting that in parking there, the Ford driver committed the very same crime he was attempting to shame the BMW driver for. It’s a completely different scenario from when you block someone in by means of…

What does the morse translate to?

One thing worth noting is that the differences in material generally only apply to the decking material itself and not the structure, as most decks are still built with traditional pressure treated lumber even if they have plastic decking. This is mainly due to cost but also material availability. What that means is…

It’s about to be a moot point since so many cars are going to push button ignition where you never have to take your keys out of your pocket.

Give it a rest. I’ve been hit by someone while carrying my gun and shot exactly nobody.

Before I go anywhere new I study the place on Google Earth/Maps in order to familiarize myself with where I’ll be and chose a route to get there and back. I like to be able to navigate without any device or map. I rarely ever use a gps for actual directions. I just use it for the map display and knowing where I am.

Every person is different but comparing American lifestyles to European is apples and oranges. Between my house and my cabin I use my pickup every weekend. I do things most Europeans don’t have the option to do or have to find other means to accomplish. I haul construction materials, pull a car hauler trailer with a…

If only more bloggers or people on social media followed this thinking. It seems these days the first rule is defend your ideology at all costs which means never admitting anyone from your party or who shares your ideology could be wrong.

THIS. Double Fail.

I love rain-x. I’d be interested to see how it could be bad. There’s such a small amount on the car, I can’t see how it would damage anything.

Yes, and I remember hating it. ha ha

This sounds like a myth to me. How will that buy time when the person receiving the check is using their phone to take a photo of it for mobile deposit?

Isn’t the solution to open the pass-thru and pull the trunk release from inside? That’s how it is on the G37.

I agree. If you’re interested in cruising in a low powered car, a manual is fun. If you’re interested in driving seriously in a high powered car, fancy automatic is just better. Plus it lets you focus on hitting the apex or braking points more without worrying when to shift.

Some years ago I had the pleasure of watching a Blue Angels performance in Oklahoma City. During the performance, one of the aircraft came in, and the pilot swapped planes and was back in the air in just a few minutes. It was absolutely amazing to watch, and in my opinion made an already impressive show even more…

A list of vehicles that need to be re-recalled was not immediately available.

Yeah but Waze isn’t always perfect. Some of the best places to drive fast are isolated highways and back roads which may have more cop traffic than active wazer traffic.

Cop-o-meter. I want a gauge to tell me how likely I am to get busted for speeding. Needle in the red - 5 over. Needle in the green - triple digits, baby.

Agreed. I have about that much and it’s that perfect point between enough to have fun and go fast and more than you can use on a public road. I can make a sub 14 second 1/4 mile and spin the tires but I can’t use the acceleration or top speed to its potential very often. Would I like more? Of course. Would more power…

There are active Coast Guard boats in Oklahoma on the McClellan-Kerr Arkansas River Waterway. The Coast Guard does a lot of stuff inland.
