Seems like Cadillac decided to start appealing to more. I know a couple of people with 2015 Escalades. They have a 2-speed transfer case now as an option. One guy doesn’t care, just knows it works a hell of a lot better than the AWD Escalades he used to have. Other guy loves it, does a lot of towing and handyman stuff…

The transmitter IS inactive, it’s the old broadcast site for KDLT. Here’s another video:

Some tower crews charge as much as $2500 for a single bulb replacement at 250' (just imagine if I could charge $10 per foot for light bulb replacements. Your ceiling fan? $80). Switching to LED reduces the frequency of that, but some implementations do include multiple bulbs for backup.

“Now we’ve reached the base of the antenna. From here it’s just another 60' to the top”

Nexus 6P: Drop your SIM card in and watch the magic happen.
Moto X Pure: Drop your SIM card in and watch the magic happen.
iPhone 6S: Drop your SIM card in and watch the magic happen.
Samsung GS6: Well you gotta get a different model for Verizon, Sprint, USCC, AT&T, and T-Mobile.

I never turn down good noodles.

Well...........I’ve never been able to do FWD brakestands without line-lock or the parking brake set.

Guy was talking about his Neon. This one goes along with double-clutching. Kept saying how clean and smooth he is in cornering. Something about how he used to have to double-clutch but it was taking too much time. Him and his buddies upgraded the clutch, supposedly took his synchros out and now he doesn’t have to…

Opposite holds true as well. Some people think that since the GXP Grand Prix came with a 5.3, that it was identical to the pickup 5.3 in size.

1998 Nissan Frontier with big tires and a manual.. hated driving it in the summer. A/C on meant it felt like power to the wheels got cut in half.

“I got a new trans in my Duramax and the shop said it’s built to 700HP so with my new blow-off valve and exhaust tip I should be pushing 725ish”

HA! A buddy of mine has a newer Nissan with a CVT. 0-60 is NOTICEABLY slower when ‘slapshifting’

I cringe every time that commercial airs.

To add to that, A/C cutout circuits are usually set up so that at wide open throttle, the A/C clutch is disengaged.

My 6S+ won’t let me pick a date before 1/1/1970 or after 1/1/2038. Interesting.

NEW SAFETY FEATURE ON CARS!!

TheBoze mentioned being -5UTC in North America. That would be 5 hours before 1/1/1970. One could infer that your iPod recognizes that set of instructions and displays 12/31/1969

Now it’s just the name for the messaging app, formerly Google Talk.

I pay Comcast for 30Mbps down and never achieved even 10Mbps with my off-the-shelf consumer goods store router. Re-purposed an old Core 2 Duo machine as a firewall/gateway/router and haven’t had problems getting 30Mbps ever since. I can stream Netflix on 2 TVs, Hulu on one, internet radio, browse the web, and upload…

A couple of years ago, my neighbor sold me his 1998 Nissan Frontier. It sat, untouched, for years until he finally caved and sold it to me. He had a battery tender sitting on the hood, never saw it plugged in. The day I bought it, it cranked and fired no problem. Interesting. The battery was 5 years old at that point.
