Bees very much go with specialized trucks as they make their truck around the country every year. https://beeinformed.org/2018/02/08/the-long-haul/ Two thousand semi loads of hives go to the almond orchards in the San Joaquin Valley every February.

The rule is pretty simple. It gives an exact position from which the angle is supposed to be measured, so there is no ambiguity. As the text says, it is intended to give the designers maximum flexibility. My only beef is that is uses the median male driver, when it should use the median driver.

The Fiesta is continuing in the rest of the world, so my worries about WRC running Ecosports is premature.

I saw this ad and was reminded immediately of one they ran in the 1980s that was rather similar. Just about every organization in Washington State called them out on showing someone driving through a salmon spawning stream.

Keeping anyone associated with New York out of the planning, contracting or construction is essential if you want something that works.

The local KTLA stream is very good. Not vapid commentary, and you can get a separate audio channel with just the bands.

The model might work, but it doesn’t seem like Uber knows how to do it.

The Mercedes Garish-overkill Luxo Barge is appropriately named.

Ferrari should base that SUV on their excellent 4WD Vega V 95.

The news from Uber et al suggests “the right cultural fit” is what will kill a lot of companies that have a brogrammer culture.

Gray areas around the temples are well compensated, however.

The actors are also unrealistically good looking. So bogus!

I had a 3.6 l slant six in a ‘66 Dart, and a 2.5 l V6 in a Contour (Mondeo). “Smooth” and “Gutsy” are not words that spring to mind in thinking about them. The latter was a lot more powerful, being about 40 years newer. The Dart was super easy to work on because it only took up the passenger side of the engine…

Completely agree about live shows. But this was “Dick Clark’ New Years Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest.” Expectations are different.

It would have been good to get a picture of this car in its intended environment. Perhaps stuck in traffic on El Camino in Menlo Park, near the Tesla HQ.

A beetle is a lot easier on your arms and shoulders than the maul. Especially in wood that doesn’t always split on the first strike.

If they work in Palo Alto, you’d have to do the calculation based on 0-25 time, about 100 times per commute.

Parking spaces are for losers. This thing will park wherever it is convenient and draws the most attention.

Try a 1974 DAF 66 with an 1100 cc engine.

I live in a rural, politically fairly libertarian area. We don’t have a lot of local laws, but the community has passed a few where there is consensus that the town should help people be good neighbors. One of these laws is that car maintenance like this must happen in a garage, not out in the open. The practice comes…
