DEI hire in Reagan ATC for sure. Or maybe the helicopter pilot’s second cousin is trans. Or maybe this is why we should re-designate them Sikorsky “White-Hawks.”

But seriously, this is horrible. My heart is with all the victims and their families. Accidents happen and that doesn’t make it okay, but the cynic in me is…

In theory there's some possible gains with off roading in some difficult terrains, in practice since there haven't been many manual off road vechiles made in the past 20 years there's almost no one on the planet that could make use of them.  Not that you're really going to see many people seriously off roading these…

Don’t get me wrong, I love a good manual. I’ve owned the best from Honda — S2000 and NSX — and they were both a joy to drive.

Well put. In our culture we are always looking for deep pockets to sue. We can’t just accept that nobody is at fault except the people who contributed to Global Warming. ie. everybody.

Different computer settings to deal with starting, engainging the reverse lights, clutch safety switch, etc. The computers would need to be flashed, essentially you would have a 4runner with a computer from a pick-up, it would not understand the rear gate, drop down rear window, the rear doors would probably be an…

The problem with California power companies is that they are publicly traded. As long as they are, they will put shareholder profits above safety and rates will keep getting higher. 

I can’t say that I’ve ever had a cop tap my car/taillight during a traffic stop. And I used to get pulled over A LOT. 

Practically, and better than a fingerprint, the touch would leave DNA. However, since cops often wear gloves specifically to avoid leaving either finger prints or DNA when planting false evidence, it is simply an old habit from when they used to use the 5 D-Cell flashlight to shatter the tail lamp lens as probable…

Police chief in my small city of 60k makes $325k per year. Most of the regular cops are pulling in $120k. They make upwards of $200k at the end of their career (in their mid 50s), then spend the last 3 years working a shit ton of OT so that there pensions are inflated based on those last few years of total pay. Then…

Most of forensic science has traditionally been little more than a big circle-jerk designed to produce convictions in court. It has no other function, and the “scientists” who work in the field routinely cite and back up each other’s work to make it all look more legit. This allows them to point at journal articles…

Also keep in mind that it is that price you are voting on. Is $15k a nice price for that vehicle. You yourself said it’s within negotiating distance. That is not the question. Is $15k a nice price for that vehicle. If you need to negotiate down from that then the answer is no.

I’m not sure the seller is doing himself any favors with the ad title. Do you really want to connote Lamborghini costs on top of Audi costs while you’re trying to unload this time bomb? I’d go with “Hey, it’s not the W12!”.

You got that right.

That Audi’s about one major repair away from being one Hell of a parts car.

Keep in mind the question asked is this car worth this money, not would YOU spend this much money on this car.

I wonder if you could talk him down in price with some carefully chosen insults about Jane Fonda?

Try saying “beautiful milled piece of ash” in Sean Connery’s voice.

I was thinking SNL:

This country’s gun culture is fucking off-the-rails absurd. 

“Then again, if he’d killed someone other than a fire chief, he may have gotten off scot-free.”
