The guy shows the stock pistons a the end. It’s your run of the mill Ford piston.

Especially when they’re 500 hp engines running your every day Ford internals.

Because they don’t actually employ them. Our state government sells off prisoners to do construction work all the time.

California is much more similar to France than other US states. I’m in AZ, and we had almost 1,300 people killed in auto accidents in 2006 (in a state with only 6 million people in it). Driving in most US states is much more dangerous than in most European countries. I ride a motorcycle, and no way would I lane split…

I always thought it was because Europeans smoked so many cigarettes.

If you made a napkin doodle of what your beater truck would look like as a dune-jumping hero, and then actually built said truck, you might be a redneck. an energy drinking swigging, flat-brimmed hat wearing, UFC watching, girlfriend berating, douchebro.

I would say engine builders are craftsmen.

Well, the machine was put together by machines. The seats and dash were upholstered by crafts people.

They do not wear parachutes. The kid died. It was bizarre.

Those piece of shit Subie AC units with their soft pistons and glass gearboxes.

No, he jumped out of an actual airplane and died. I’m not a flight instructor, just read about it in the news.

What will this mean after the Evo is gone?

I assume a few thousand feet. Two planes ran into each other and the kid panicked. The instructor ended up landing the plane and was fine.

And the dry ass hills which look like they’re about to catch fire.

Yeah, the PCH is for if you want to sit behind an overheating Vanagon that won’t let you pass.

I work near a flight school, and pretty much all the students are Chinese. There’s only 3-4 crashes a year, but one kid did panic and jump out of a plane once, only for the instructor to land it safely.

Yeah, you seemed to to miss out on the whole joke part of this exchange. I don’t actually think they stole anything from Ford or GM.

I think this may be too brash for even Russians. I’m thinking more Albanian or Bosnian “businessman”.

I thought the agreed upon stage four was:
