I just bought a hot wheels of this car (thanks ebay!). Dammit I want the real thing.

Quite honestly, it was probably sold at a considerable loss to Merc. $50 million (rounding the numbers) doesn't even come close to what it cost to develop a car like this.

Or, you know you could go through the Lincoln Tunnel. I made a lady on her cell phone in a cab very upset when I was driving my buddies straight piped STI through there... apparently her conversation was more important the the howl of the boxer motor. I beg to differ but everyone is entitled to there opinion.

I'm jumping in super late, but I'll say this much, if you haven't driven a car with more then 500hp, swing by my house sometime (I live just outside Philly). I'll gladly let you drive either my Magnum (650hp thanks to some forced induction) or 69 Camaro (550hp). It'll change your mind pretty quickly. It's a different…

Very cool! I replied to bump your comment.

Here's how I do Manhattan:

It depends which car my new wife (Maryeve Dufault) decides to take, I'll take whatever she doesn't want to drive.

I travel all over the world for work, and can confirm it works just about anywhere that has a decent internet connection. I actually have mine set up at my parents house, and I canceled my cable (I'm on the road for 8-9 months a year so it doesn't really make sense to pay for TV). It has worked almost flawlessly, it…

Ha!

The difference being these are things that we use. Do I think our society (especially in the United States) is wasteful? Absolutely, but we're talking about something that almost nobody uses. I'm not familiar enough with the logging industry to know how sustainably the trees or grown, etc... so I'll take that out of…

Exactly! I didn't highlight that part of my equation but this is PER YEAR. I even went back and cut my numbers in half (and doubled the number of pages produced per tree) and came up with 35k trees A YEAR. We're talking thousands of acres of forrest here, even the most dense forrest! Oh, and I also didn't mention that…

Really? Think about it, almost every household in the US gets a copy of the useless trash, ~300 million people in the US, so just spitballing off the top of my head there's roughly 50 million households that receive the book (I honestly have no idea, so I'll make it a conservative estimate). For the sake of argument…

I wonder how many of the employees at Yellowpages actually use the product they push... I mean seriously, we live in an age where I can tell my phone what I want "I want Chinese" and boom I now know the nearest Chinese restaurant, and I also know what other people think about it. The whitepages used to be somewhat…

I heard about this a few years ago IIRC. Maybe I'm wrong.

That took me a second, I was like "I don't see the prob... ahhhhh"

Say Shenanigans one more god damned time and I'll pistol whip you!

Yes I mounted it on the trailer myself. Not difficult with the right rental equipment.

Who knew earth was actually in a jar.

I own a diesel Genset that was surplus from a refrigerated train car. I have it mounted on a trailer, and can power 3-4 homes whenever needed. It's loud as all hell, but the few times I've had to use it made me the most popular guy in my neighborhood.

I'll do you one better! I actually say the punchline from this commercial quite regularly... Boo Creepy Foot Doctor!
