Got a Manual 2015 2-door Willy’s Wheeler in that lovely Tank color (OD Green)... Freakin LOVE it! It passed 700 miles on the odometer hub deep in a river...

As a born-n-bred californian, It’s Pacific Graft and Extortion, or Pigs Goats and Elephants.

My sister bought a 3 year old Honda Pilot via the web. She and my father flew halfway across the country to pick it up. On the way home, my father was sleeping in the passenger seat and my sister was digging around in the center console... She found a “candy” in there... It was in a wrapper... Being curious and not…

Right now, if I were to buy another bike (already have a cr250x) it would be a BMW g650gs Sertao. That looks like it would be a hoot to ride. Light enough that you could go further than logging roads, but big enough that it could freeway.

#10 and #8.... I came here to post that...

The day after the Indy500...

Really? I never would have caught that! /sarcasm...

Can anybody tell me what that elephant symbolizes? Then never did discuss it. Somehow I think it was left there, looming, intentionally.... (Yes, I do know what it was, and no, I am not that dense...)

They contract to carry spares for MANY other teams. They are probably carrying ~5 rubbermaid totes for EACH motorcycle team that has enough money to contract with them. Charley Boreman (SP?) had an awesome miniseries called Race to Dakar where they go over the logistics as well as training and the actual race.

90% (Number I just pulled from below my belt, but above my shoes) of the suggested speed limits have to do more with bad sight-lines than about being able to hold the curve. You really should always drive as though somebody just dropped a load of bricks just out of your sight.

Full throttle launch compresses rear suspension. Hit jump, front suspension drooping, rear suspension fully compressed... front soft, rear hard. You can guess which end bounces higher. More bounce in rear=forward rotation.

I am a meat popsicle!

How about Tribeca? I have one! 3 rows, 7 passengers, some ground clearance, AWD and a 3.6l flat 6. They made it! Now, just slap a new nose on it and some decent electronics upgrades. It didn’t sell well last time because it was never updated. I love mine!

Not very many IN THIS COUNTRY do that. Dealers have too many cars on the lot, and they ACTIVELY discourage special orders. They seem to think that everybody is a lost sale unless they walk out with a car that on the lot right now.

Have you ever seen how the e-brake works on drum rear brakes? It asks as a second fulcrum opposite the hydraulic wheel cylinder. If the mechanics of the brake shoes are not in place, the cable, it does nothing!

Lightspeed also used to do Honda aftermarket. I had lightspeed lowering coils and torsion bars in my ‘87 CRX Si.

Ok, here goes. Twitter/facebook/instagram/myspace/google+ presence will do NOTHING towards me choosing a dealership. Reviews on forums about the buying process will totally help me choose a dealership. Sockpuppets are easy to spot in these situations. Model/brand specific forum presences are not a bad choice. Be…

This would almost have to be done as a anime style, but:

Alabama. The freeway slows down to 20mph, suddenly bunch of people take to the grass to exit:

Bad driving position, cheap plastics everywhere, head scratching ergonomics.
