The fun provided by a manual is provided by the clutch pedal, not the gear selector.

I was starting to think I was some sort of weirdo because I don’t mind driving a manual in stop and go traffic. I hear it all the time from people “I wish I could own a manual, but I sit in a lot of traffic” and in my head I’m just thinking “So?” I guess to each their own. If driving a boring car bothers someone less…

Like most things, it all comes down to $$$. Multiple pieces would require extra bracing ($), extra nuts and bolts ($), extra time for manufacturing ($), and extra time for on site storage and assembly ($$). When you have the ability to make one giant piece and get it to the site for, in reality, not much more than the…

I wonder if it being Florida (hurricanes) played a part because otherwise yeah, it doesn’t seem as efficient as making and transporting lots of little ones for on site assembly.

I think there’s a few reasons why:

The power tool battery pack is brilliant. Rechargeable, available, repurposable after the fact. Not sure how much power load the air pump needs but guessing a single battery can give hours of operation. 

None, it’s running Android.

I was thinking the same thing lol, his neighbors must LOVE him.

If the final production model looks like this and comes at that price point... I want one so badly. I’d even put a dark digital urban camo wrap on it to double down on the aesthetic. And a dry ice machine in the back for added impact when the doors open.

haha it uses shopify to sell “trucks”. When will the scam article come out?

See HBO, you can end a story properly. :D

This is awesome, and I totally agree that it fits in with Indy’s history of innovation.

How tall are you? I’m nearly 6'3" and my knees are pretty much in the back of the seat without them reclining. I’m okay with them reclining a little but there’s a point where they have to stop. If you recline all the way back, my confrontational attitude is going to come knocking.

Part of me wants to ask “what the fuck makes dudes like this think shit like this is okay?”

The rest of me understands: “Entitlement. Entitlement, and a culture that has been content until just recently to say ‘boys will be boys.’”

Thank god the second part of that appears to be experiencing some pushback, at least.…

What if you broke it trying to reinstall it though? I would have gone with a note to the owner to check his headlight fairing.

For the people who don’t get it:

Anyone who did proper scouting on Lamar knew his limp-wristed throwing style was going to translate to the NFL.

Awww man, Danny Green. Between the opening night promotions during the MLB Playoffs (Kawhi!!! LeBron!!! Also... Raptors and, uhhh, Pelicans) and now this highlight, I’m getting a deep case of the sadhappies. I knew this was coming, but it doesn’t make it any easier. 

Black provides the best visibility for shipping guards. Just sayin.

Matt, look on the bright side...I’m sure this feels better than being up 28-3 once.
