That is an extraordinary car which I would happily buy for half of the price listed.

Looks VW to me. Or Audi.

It would be a nice price if they'd left it stock. Crack pipe as it is, though.

I'm curious about this chemical free blowtorch you speak of.

Seatbelts.

If you're determined to talk on the phone, eat, etc while driving, you're better off in an automatic.

Can't tell if trolling or stupid.

When I was first learning to drive stick, around 4-5 years after learning to drive a car with an automatic transmission, I could tell that the other areas of my driving was suffering.

Based on my experience, lathes and mills are far easier to operate proficiently than 3D printers.

AutoCAD's pretty much the worst thing there is for 3D. Creo/ProE, SolidWorks, Inventor (which is the true 3D software made by the same company as AutoCAD) would be the way to go.

This is inconsistent with my experience with 3D printers. They typically require an awful lot of fine tuning to create a part with any degree of structural integrity.

Fair enough, it's tough to quantify other measures of tire performance, since it varies so greatly based on conditions and the car's suspension setup.

Not sure if I understand the relevance of your graph.

Guns and bows and arrows used for hunting are tools, in my mind.
