If my brother’s house hunt is anything to go buy Utah is quickly approaching ridiculous levels too, not quite granola curtain insanity but my old house there just re-sold for $785k when I bought it for $250k four years ago, kind of makes me wish I was the one that sold it this time, I only got 30 over what I paid when…

You have to pay for half of pbs' stuff to stream it too. But I'm right there with you. 

Unfortunately for both the BATFE and the present administration the sixth district federal appellate court recently rejected the notion of the Chevron Deferrence as it applies to the agency being allowed to broadly interpret the law and redefine legal terms based on their own expertise. Specifically the court decided,…

Thanks. I'll save my pennies.

Dang it. Now I have to get out the old genesis and crt again. I just put that away. 

I feel your pain. That's part of why I do parole work rather than regular patrol crap. 

Feel privileged. The place I went charged $175 for a pass that you only had about a 30% chance of getting to use because they deliberately sold four times as many passes as there were spaces. The "logic" behind it was that not everyone has classes at the same time. Then there were the campus parking schmoes that would…

It’s called “graceful degradation” in military aircraft. Fitting for an aircraft carrier.

Not the most practical EV but I like it. I think I might be able to convince my wife to let me do this one as she adores vespas and her commute is only a few miles. 

My grandmother that had her car set on fire might disagree. Not saying they’re right, just that things have gone to sh*t all over and microcosms are how we hear about everything now, left or right white or everyone else, police or defund them. We just only seem to get news that divides regardless of source and at some…

GGona have to disagree with the german entry up there, the nicest car you can buy for money like that will be an old land yacht. I've had too many negative experiences with benz vehicles to recommend them to anyone but the only bad experience I ever had with my electra 225 convertible was in Oregon when the attendant…

Unless you're trapped behind the granola curtain you should be able to license this with a harbor freight trailer light kit and a pair of spot lights as headlights as some kind of custom or kit car. I'm dealing with that myself as I'm building a kit cobra daytona coupe with my dad when I go visit him in utah. Theirs…

It’s harder than hell to get a warrant for one of these so, no, it’s not entrapment, it’s far more likely that they are certain she’s been harboring the fugitive or at least knows where he is and frequents there often. Likely they were not so much tracking her but trying to find their fugitive and no five officers is…

It’s about the deliberate misleading of an uninformed population toward an ideological goal at odds with relevant facts. If the officers are searching for a fugitive, five officers is NOT excessive and if they got a warrant to track her it means they already know she’s harboring him and are looking to locate him.…

You're missing an important piece here. It's called "The fruit of the poisonous tree" nothing obtained directly or indirectly from an illegal search is admissable as evidence at any level of criminal court prosecution, civil liability is another matter but that's not up to the officers. If a shitbag officer acts…

Having had to deal with a similar situation I can honestly say the bar is set extremely high to justify a warrant to attach one of these because it is a MASSIVE intrusion into someone’s privacy. The only way I got mine was with several reliable 3rd party witnesses and it being a fugitive registered sex offender that…

My only issue with the Camry is that unless the driver does something exciting or obtuse with it it is just a lump of car. There’s no real excitement or feeling from it, I have the same issue with most newer vehicles, they’re like the monty python chartered accountancy PSA sketch. Accountants tell the designers what…

By the logic of “All the cars are the same.” Spec racer fords around that track would blow your mind. Personally I like to see engineers let loose to play with weird concepts and then pairing that with drivers of different styles. Long Live Can-Am!

Me too, dirt road between dairy farms, honda cvcc with the roof hacked off with a saw all. We really should have at least kept the windshield frame for some semblance of rollover protection but we didn't die sooooo. . . 

True. I recently watched a full fast and furious level rice burner honda complete with ‘00's fart pipe loose handily to my buddy’s first gen nissan leaf.
