Texas has a lot of cheap land and I have the ability, knowledge, and licensing to get one done, so my $100k garage will be awesome. The zip code rider of my comment definitely has a huge impact, but it’s my garage so I get to ignore everyone else’s regional costs.

That was one of the best TV cars. Such an excellent choice for the show. 

The advantage to CLEAR is that you can sign up right on the spot with an ID. Precheck requires making an appointment and having extra documents on hand. While that’s not a deal breaker, it’s still a series of steps that make it really easy to skip, especially if you don’t have a very flexible job schedule.

Now, instead of having to highjack a plane, the typical American terrorist (aka public shooter) can easily attack the giant, roped in crowd that is reliably available at every major airport before any measurable security is in place. Look up the Chicago serial stow away to see just how effective our security theater…

Igot it free through work and quickly learned it's mostly garbage. I suppose I save maybe 5-10 minutes at some airports, but there's been a few where I skipped the clear line because it was going slower...

Guns were caught before 9/11 too. The search for guns has nothing to do with making me dump out my water bottle, take off my shoes, and remove electronics from my bag. That's just security theater.

Certainly. There are a lot of zip codes where I basically described a $500k “starter house” once you swap the garage door for a regular door. When I was living near Seattle, the dirt under it would go for $200k. 

I knew I was forgetting something. Full plumbing included too.

What’s Your Perfect $100,000 Garage?

I wonder how soon before Fox exclusively uses the last slide video for their “reporting” on this...

*All funds to be used in the prison commissary, which is (probably) funded by tax dollars.

It’s a bit odd that the Titan is so unreliable when I’ve read mostly good things about the reliability of the QX80/Armada twins. I figured those would all use the same stuff under the hood. 

sounds like she went a bit...postal

Are there seminars at DOT conferences on how to safely prep the road after a spill?

I’m a 90s kid and remember these being pretty cool for what they were, but the Japanese tuner market of the era overshadowed them so badly that it’s hard to imagine these having any real following. I’m sure there are a few dozen who love them, but almost anyone nostalgic for this era probably has a list of cars ahead…

I’ve seen some rural schools that are like that in different states. Usually, the road is a 55 or higher, the school is one of the only buildings nearby, it is set way back from the highway, and there is a really wide shoulder that cars use for pick up lines and merging back onto the roadway.

I think many cars of that era would qualify and be nominated today. Being a young’n, they all seem special to me, but I’ve heard from many boomers that actually experienced those cars who criticize them for being so expensive now compared to how commonplace/disposable they once were. 

Becoming & being PE is arguably an unhealthy amount of my personality, so that would probably drive me a little crazy. I stamp anywhere from 200-300 traffic control plans alone every year, not counting our other stuff. I’m currently one of our only PEs in a few states though, so that certainly affects those…

I took the FE my senior year of college and IL changed the rules a while back so that I could take the test without my 4 years, so I got the PE test knocked out within 2 years of graduating. Nearly all of my company’s executives are PEs who transitioned from designers to management over time, so it is a top-down…
