It never occurred to me that the temp display would be connected to the engine intake temp sensor. Makes sense. That would explain why the temp display for my wife’s Pilot changes a lot after start up. On startup the display can read 10-15 degrees off, then fairly quickly change as the intake air hits the sensor. If

Apparently people hate on Elon because he allows actual free speech on his platform, not just the establishment approved variety. You have to be utterly brainwashed to believe that was a “nazi salute”, but whatever.

Because they don’t want to look as cool as this. Duh...

Why are these residential lines not underground like in most European countries? Power lines running through wooded areas will always pose a risk. 

I know Eric of “I Do Cars” personally, dude is very humble and super smart. He and his brothers both come from a Mazda household which Eric has deviated from but his brother has an insane collection of Mazdas, including a Eunos Cosmo, AutoZam AZ-1, and an early 90s turbo Protege. I’d like to see him do a video on his

1980 Triumph TR-7 convertible. Haven’t driven it currently cause it’s winter and...yeah. Also working from home means I don’t have to daily drive anything, as almost everything I need is within walking distance. But it is a fun car to run to the store or whatever.

What the hell was we saving it for? I did not spend a lot of time digging into this, but it looks like a Viper ran you about $71K or $72K in 2002. (Yeah, this one is special, but I didn’t bother to spec this trim package.) That would be $123K in current day dollars. This was a stupid investment. Whoever bought it

My daily driver is a 1996 Honda Magna 750. If it's raining or otherwise treacherous, I drive a 1963 Ford F100.

The old stereotype was “tapping” your taillight w/ the baton & saying “sir, you have a broken taillight”.

It does nothing to alleviate every douche bag Tesla owner looking down on you. Not that I’d expect a cord to make Tesla owners not-douche-bags.  

Literally zero real world usage. This thing on a regular road would be a nightmare. 

My mother forgot her shopping in the back of the hatchback once. So I guess it happens, first couple of years working I picked up a 8 inch floppy on xmas eve from a client and chucked it the back seat to look at once I was back at work. Back to work, where is that floppy, oops bent like a banana.

David Tracy famously left groceries in the beds of pickup trucks and under snow in his backyard. I’m pretty sure I drank one of yard beers right before he left Detroit. :)

I see what you did there... The “depths” of your geekery?

Another two nations divided by a common language.

My antenna topper is a little model of my car. It has an antenna topper that’s a little model of my car. That has an antenna topper that’s a little model of my car. That has...

Without even stepping near it, I can tell you that the fabric bits leak, the camper part squeaks like an army of angry mice and the soundproofing from the engine that’s basically right next to your leg was never good to begin with. at $3000, it officially becomes more expensive than it is worth and even then, you are
