The best part of this story is when the officer places his hand over the car expecting a heat signature. Tesla is the future ha!

I never even considered "collision with a whale" to be a possibility when commuting.

CNN got that from this

I like to imagine he shouted "How do you like dem apples?":

Please tell me that Subaru is also a bugeye!

... and the reverse, from Wanted:

Wut? He bunny-hops the tractor?

Didn't Bruce Willis pull this exact stunt in his sort-of recent Die Hard movie Red?

So, so, so many honorable mentions here. No one even mentioned the outstanding Tamilwood tractor jump.

I rewired my G35 coupe's manumatic, so now when I pull, it upshifts, push, it downshifts. It was the opposite from the factory. Pretty simple to do, too, just pop open the housing surrounding the shifter, and switch the wires.

Back in my ricier days, I decided an automatic family car was too pedestrian, and to avoid ridicule, I replaced the shift gate with the manual trim pieces.
