Part of the problem is how the energy sector is incentived to operate. The utilities don’t make money via maintenance, they make money via new construction. Last Week Tonight did an episode on it and it’s a real eye opener.

I had never seen the CXT and just image searched it. Now I want one.

Or the second gen. Or hell ANY viper?! The difference is you can actually work on a viper and get parts fairly easily!

Oh that’s easy. Went to a vintage cars day at Watkins about 10 years ago and saw a bunch of Aurora Indy cars chasing after a Ferrari Indy car. It was Ferrari, Aurora, Aurora, Aurora, then a bunch of brands, and in the very back was a really cool vintage 70s Ford. Afterwards there was a drive what you had event and of…

Unfortunately no. There was a supreme court case in 1989 showing that they had no obligation to protect citizens. https://www.findlaw.com/legalblogs/law-and-life/do-the-police-have-an-obligation-to-protect-you/

Can confirm the bowling balls. If you have a clear topped bag they won't even open it usually.

Wait really? (Buys blue check mark) ok Elon where's my truck?

Fitting considering the boys of summer are gone. 

I did Na Zi that coming. Guess I wasn't looking in the Reich direction. 

Planelopnik and boatlopnik have been around the site for a looooong time. 

Because it's not the same blob shape with tiny tires that every other crossover is. 

Yo fool it’s MiXmaster Elno

That's rough. Other than the drainage issue I've had very few problems with my Auroras. 

I’m biased obviously, but I would make a case for the Oldsmobile Curved Dash. First car to be mass produced via interchangeable parts, I believe the first car to have a song written about it, and the car that saved Oldsmobile post factory fire, the division that would save GM again and again.

Huh. Neat. 

I've got a set of Goodyear Ultra grips that are just hitting their final season this year. Not bad for their 6th winter. Ironically I finally burned up my Nokian summer tires after 5 years as well. 

Wait, doctor who is on Disney +?
