lol, man that has got to be a blow to the ol’ ego!

Yeah, I haven’t regretted it in the least. I do like living in the country but when I did it always involved about a 20-mile trip to get anything if I didn’t want to eat at McDonalds or shop at Walmart (not to mention the work commute). Plus, I have some pretty good neighbors now so living in a sparsely populated

Meh... the price of having a dual-purpose vehicle. You can make the same argument against cars like the 911 GT3, upcoming Corvette Z06 and GT500 since there are more specialized and track capable vehicles out there like an Ariel Atom or Carterham Seven but that specialization comes at a cost and for an absolutely tack

Europe: “Stupid Americans and their bloated freakishly large land yachts like the Mustang”

‘murica: Points to the Bently Continental GT vert rated as a mini compact. 

LMAO, that’s too funny the Bently Continental GT vert is so tight on interior space it qualifies as a mini compact!

Or Veyron or any number of Ferraris and Lambos but I guess the gentry in the Europe have a special place and granted such allowances. 

Heh, the sweet thing about retiring early, I don’t have to do the day-to-day hustle (been three days since I’ve had to drive the car) and I generally live in a 5-mile radius of whatever I need so I can knock out my bike ride and save fuel.

That’s what drove me to buy my home the last time fuel prices spiked (at the

Well, each to their own but just so you know this is the automotive equivalent of watching kiddie porn!

Less facetiously, meh... not a fan myself but each to their own. the TRX won’t be sold in significant enough numbers to make much of a difference anyway. 

which is just about every boat not operating in a commercial aspect. I’ve been on a few boats in my time that would be hard pressed to cover any of that from the one fire extinguisher out of date to the life jackets that would probably fall apart as the seams gave way to the flotation material in the jacket and if

Ineed the whole solar system. 

Sounds like the simple solution is to sail just outside of US territorial waters and drop anchor. Can’t tax it as real estate then.

I don’t mind the nuke plant but the coal plant has a decidedly adverse effect on the population near the plant since it spews heavy metals and radioactive particles plus the accumulated fly ash stored around the plant. If the coal plant was out in the boonies it wouldn’t be as bad but its not far from a large

I was going to say most of the Raptors I see are business vehicles with additional stickers plastered all over the side. 

Well point of source anyway. In myimmediate vicinity power is provided by a nuke plant and a coal plant. We have solar but its two counties away.

Only because they are airing their dirty laundry.

I’m fine with super dark tint on a cop car - it makes the undercover cars easy to pick out.

lol, in over 30 years of driving I’ve never had that happen. It was either “slow down, this is a warning” or “tell it to the judge buddy”.

exactly - nuisance laws to allow police to pull motorists for any reason.

This bill won’t make it, as soon as municipalities take a look at the revenue loss they will be screaming.

A and B are never coming back. A simply because rollover standards are a moving target (last I’ve read a vehicle has to be able to support three times it’s weight on the roof when it rolls over) and B due to brodozers and to a lesser extent SUVs and CUVs where the bumper sits high enough to intrude on the passenger
