as always a wonderfully written, well researched and well thought out piece. Reading your stuff on here is always a pleasure and I actually feel educated afterwards. I wish there was more reporting and analysis done like yours available to read.
well im glad my tax dollars are going to SpaceX #thanksobma rather than the estimated 5 TRILLION we spent in iraq and afghanistan #thanksbush or the tens of billions we shell out on corperate subsidies and the tens of billions we loose in income tax revenue due to tax breaks #thanksbigbusiness
I believe you are confusing an expensive car with a Luxury car. Yes the model S is expensive, but that is because it is shOuldering a very hefty portion of Teslas R&d and manufacturing and start up expenses. Its expensive because it HAS to be.Adding luxury appointments would have pushed the cost up even more. Tesla…
My first car was an 87 subaru station wagon. Unfortunately not as cool as RHD. We got it from friends of our family for 100 bucks and that was the perfect car for a teenage guy (from my parents point of view). That thing was unkillable. when I got it in early 2000 it was already at 200k miles. my friends want to rally…
the top article image is so oviously photoshopped its not even funny I seriously hope that's not an official one that Jeep is putting into circulation. Trail Rated .... Only as far as a green screen. the same background trees 3 times. the same pond rock twice. The same pond reflections twice. Im almost positive the…
Why not ditch the who Roman alphabet thing. It's been used by everyone now. Let's Greek: model Epsilon and Model Chi/Xi. I don't think anyone has trademarked those yet.
Missing the Mazda RX-9 and the Furai, the Cadillac Cien, the Shelby GR-1, the Dodge Deora, and Toyota A-BAT
All that work on the body. All the lines matching up, making it look almost factory, all the body panels fitting together evenly. Then it looks as though an hour was spent with some fiberglass and a sewing machine for the interior.
darn! You beat me to her! I've actually ridden on an excurusion with the 611. She is a beautiful work of art and machinery. It also helps that I live in Roanoke VA so when she was stored in the transportation museum I got to crawl all over her. My brother is part of one of the organizations that really pushed for her…
Its a 350Z, and to be exact it is the one or a replica of the one, from Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift.
Didn't we decomission quite a few A-10 thunderbolts recently? Wonder if Keiv would be interested in some slighty used warthogs for a generous discount? sounds like the planw for the job in those situations. If russia is covertly orchestrating the resistance/liberation/counterliberation (dont know what the exact term…
I'm not sympathetic to the new GM at all, but damn, I have to feel for Mary Barra. That has to be the worst "congratulations on your promotion" gift ever dealing with this mess.
What the heck is it with these extra little (usually fake) openings to set the badge on? Ford and GM are horrible about this and like the Focus (which is thankfully goin to the "aston face") and the Malibu that...styling abomination to set off the badge just ruins the whole front of the vehicle.
Ditch the: power seats, power mirrors, power door locks, sound deadening, automatic transmission, sat nav, power rise up vent thingys, automatic climate multizone controls. door interior trim, manual windows with lexan instead of acoustic glass, carbon fiber all of the things, standard headlights (no self adjusting,…
Supersonic freedom and democracy... It'll arrive before you hear it coming.
I knew Typhoons were large submarines but I didn't realize just how massive one of those bad boys are. This was always my favorite submarine as a kid, I still have a model of it stuffed in a box somewhere, maybe in the attic, that I really want to go find and play with now. Is it appropriate for a 30 year old guy to…
If they had just left the camouflage vinyl off it, no one would have looked twice, secret prototype test truck woulda remained a secret prototype test truck.
