So what exactly are you advocating? That we should be running all-seasons year-round? That we should be running winters year-round? Cause neither of those things are true or even a not-bad idea. 

That was less a PIT manoeuvre and more a “well she stopped her car so we shoved it into the ditch just to be on the safe side”.

Arguably those safety chains aren’t doing much to secure the vehicle, even if they are used. They’re a sort of better-than-nothing-hope-it-works backup. There’s really not much preventing the ass end from bouncing around on those uhaul trailers, no matter how tight you think you got the safety chains. I always throw a…

On an MJ they’re located under the B-pillar trim, meaning the “vent” is actually functional, at least on the driver’s side. On a cold day it’s also a convenient hand warmer if you don’t want to unbundle to get inside.

That's not a full-size...

Elected officials absolutely should be compensated.

Stupid people behave badly around bears. That’s all there really is to it.

$13,000 for a mutilated MJ that still has a turdy5 in the back? Hard pass. Wait... are those leaf springs in the front? Really? Damn. Sure maybe you spent $13k building it, but hell nah, it ain’t worth that... would cost almost that much just to undo all that crap to make it driveable again.

I’ve seen professional mechanics turn to YouTube for support on difficult problems.

In addition to Mike’s comment. That $500 (or less) beater is a great vehicle to practice on. I paid $250 for my current daily driver. Sure I ended up dumping $1000 into it in parts, but that’s largely because I had to buy new. You’ll save a ton of money getting parts at a wrecking yard, plus it gives you the…

Saskatoon attempted to promote the zipper merge. When combined with the propensity for merging at speeds well under the limit, the result is almost all traffic is sitting at 2/3 the speed limit in the right lane. Hit the left lane and do the limit, you’ll just blow past everyone. After a few months I gave up wondering…

Mine’s a ‘96. In the early ‘90's GM came in and whipped the manufacturing up to shape. Sure, materials qualities weren’t always the greatest (parts that matter are beefier than necessary to compensate) and the assembly line workers may not always have been sober (and when they were they were hungover) but the things…

They were all 1.7L. Unlike the Ford 5.0 that was only 4.9.

Well I guess it’s not exactly sitting in the street...

Commented in the wrong spot. Oops.

This guy was so dedicated to the team he didn’t even start job hunting until after competition, a month after he graduated. It was six weeks after his first application that his work visa came through and he moved to Michigan for an engineering position in the auto sector. That’s how good he is.

Yes and no. Obviously the coefficient doesn’t change as vehicle speed or drag generated does, however in order to generate downforce, you need to direct the air in such a way that it travels faster in some areas than others, which means it won’t slip quietly and peacefully by, creating turbulence when the separate…

Yeah. I’m going to go with a ton newer than ‘93. Probably mid 2000's, possibly later.

I’m, uh, not the owner. Or did you contact them? It’s definitely post-’93, but as to the specific year, I’d have to take a closer look on not my phone when I get home tonight. I can’t guarantee a huge amount of accuracy, because there wasn’t a heck of a lot of changes, but the big things are the taillights/hatch…
