The Laser didn’t really advertise trim level. Base models were just “Laser” and everything else was a “Laser RS”. Otherwise (unlike its siblings) there were no indicators for NA, Turbo, or Turbo AWD setups. Which could lead to nasty surprises at stoplights for careless challengers.

There were N/A Talons (the ‘ES’ and ‘DL’ trims), AWD Lasers (only from 92'-94', aka ‘1Gb’), and the presence of AWD on any of the three meant they were turbocharged.

When I did lifeguard training, our instructor would make us jump in the dive tank with our street clothes on (minus shoes, they take forever to dry), undress (a combination of underwater ninjitsu and drowning), and then tread water while answering multiple choice questions with our fingers (hands held above the water,…

Pretty sure they both know Bubba Wallace.

They want to see a return to 1950's Americana. They want uncontested American global hegemony, and to be free from threats both external and internal.

Actually, I wouldn’t be surprised if all damages are covered by the VW driver’s insurance. Technically, he was the initial cause of the accident. If anything, his insurance company should be happy to fix a banged up Tesla... It’s a hell of a lot cheaper than having to pay accidental death benefits.

Why would anyone throw out a working flat screen TV? I actually like my 8.5 year-old flatscreen, because it doesn’t have any of that “smart TV” nonsense.

Airbags typically last the lifetime of the vehicle. Replacing them after 10 years is a way to drum up business. IMO.

My ex and I never had kids (probably for the best) but for a girl I was pushing for Anora. It’s a real name (means “woman of honor”) but I fell in love with it after playing Dragon Age: Origins, a game that we were both hopelessly obsessed with at launch.

Just print the damn thing!
