I DD an NC2 2011 PRHT for 6 years and it never needed anything beyond basic fluids and wear items. Also in agreement, the UK spec car he tested isn’t applicable if you live in NA. The cars are pretty different.

FFRMS cites climate science, that makes it bad.

Starting with family wealth (also helps when your dad owns a track) generally trumps all barriers to Motorsports.

Not just voters. Average age of the 115th Congress is 58 (median 59) in the house and 62 (median 64) in the Senate while lately everyone running for POTUS 70+.

Keep raising the jack with the car.

Most troubling thing is that you all are calling it start-stop and not stop-start.

I keep thinking it would be great to push for legislation that makes bro dozers wear Mansfield bars to be street legal.

That’s what helicopters are for, the 1% doesn’t “commute”.

Wonder if that $700K would do more if it was offered as $10k bonus checks to the best performing people who actually do the work.

Yes the NC is still 50/50 with the seats hugging the rear axle and engine behind the front so it feels like the car pivots around you.

“For instance is there any modern vehicle that could be turned into all the things the original VW Bettle got turned into?”

This is all nothing new though.

I grew up in the Trumpiest county (and cows out number people) in NY right next to a town that voted 98% Trump. Your statement is an endemic attitude I picked up from the majority of my classmates in school. It’s quite sad, but a lot of people thought they could C student through highschool and then be set since they…

“I guess they just wanted to learn things in their teens and twenties and just coast out through the rest of adulthood without having to learn anything new.”

Change the FCA corporate tag line to “ran when parked”?

Separate school funding from property tax and watch how fast suburbs die. I’m a late Xer so I know a decent amount of millennials starting families and I’ve heard the grumble of having to move to the burbs for the schools more than I care to count. Can’t really fault them either when the city literacy rate is in the…

Sounds familiar. (I own a 150yr old urban home in an affordable city with only one car while I pay down mortgage and student debt as fast as possible... Wife and I are both late-xers).

“self made” also requires ignoring the existence of the civilization and billions of people that make daily life possible. The last “self made men” died centuries ago.

I’m still holding out for flow batteries or some similar future technology where we can drain and replace depleted electrode fluid. Then we can charge overnight at home or flush-n-fill on the go.

I remember having a teenage crush on Tia Leoni and she did a Christmas romcom with Nick Cage that featured a 550 prominently. Always liked the 456 looks better. Never warmed up to pig snout intakes.
