AS an airline pilot I can tell you that descending 28,000 in ten minutes is 2800FPM which is not a plunge at all. It’s actually a litle slower than I would expect for a depressurization which at that rate wasn’t explosive and probably a fault of the air con packs which pressurize the plane meaning it would slowly lose…
The google machine says an average passenger plane descends at 1500-3000 feet per minute. This one did it at 2800 feet per minute. Stop making it sound like they were on a fucking roller coaster.

I’m not calling it a Honda, but the F800GS is a pretty darn reliable bike.
Ehhhh, I mildly disagree. Despite low miles, head bearings on a 10 year old bike--an ADV bike mind you--isn’t that unusual.
what a joke. Not only is a slideshow to drive clicks, but its 14 slides with only 6 cars. The entire staff should feel bad.
If it gets taken out by some dumbass in a 911 or something I’m going to be extremely bummed out.
I am so completely hyped to watch this team run.
Car dealers can eat all the shit.
Thinking this might not suck .
Asshole to promote asshole to assholes.
On the upside, if you crash one you never have to go shoe shopping again.
Oh sure, you could bring up the safety issues of a cab-over designs, but I can make your car look dangerous too if I jammed a rabid puma inside of it. Cab-over vehicles are just population control, it’s why they’re still allowed in places like India and China on many of their vehicles. We stopped doing it in NA…
