So you’re saying I can get a cheap Ram in a year or two when the new owner inevitably defaults? Sweet!

Once a long time ago I was reading about the airlift we did during WWII over “the Hump” (the Himalaya mountains) as a kind of back-door way of getting things into the China side of the war without having to deal with Japanese subs and surface ships in the Pacific. These guys were some seriously ballsy pilots, flying…

FWIW $339 is a cheap suit. If they’re well-made with good quality fabrics and this magical temperature-control lining at around that price, I’d have to at least cross-shop them next time I need a suit (regardless of how preposterous the advertising is).

Actually, space travel is the safest form of travel (when measured by deaths per distance traveled). Interestingly, it’s also the most dangerous form of travel (when measured in deaths per trip).

Sure, why not.

If only we could merge the incompetence of NY&NYC Infrastructure with NJ’s incompetencies for rail and infrastructure and then throw in airplanes and shipping ports for good measure...

Ironic they would remove the manual transmission but keep the turn signal stalks.

Hugie’s 2.4-liter six-speed manual Acura ILX is apparently still running its original engine, transmission and clutch

And the crowd goes mild.

Only 2 sets of rear pads? How in the hell?

How much porn could a shorn Storm perform if a shorn Storm could perform porn?

Typhoon > Syclone, IMO, but you can’t really go wrong with either.

If not a Syclone, a Typhoon!

I think because they sucked. They took out the nice features in the Isuzu Impulse and rebadged it.

Tanks are also surprisingly easy to spin out on slick surfaces or hard concrete. Spin propensity + lack of traction + showboating = doriftarrruuuuuu

They rusted out so bad. My friend’s parents had one and I don’t think it made it more than 5 years before the rust started.

I totally get where you’re coming from, and it’s a real concern that battlefield tacticians are supposed to account for. That said, as morbid as this is, chances are if the reactive panels on your side of the tank are going off, whatever’s setting them off is probably at least as dangerous as the panels themselves.

This is exactly the kind of response I was looking for, thanks!

POGs never think about us grunts.

I’ve wondered before what the infantry guys think of ERA. It kind of feels like someone is making the grim calculation that any AT round which would activate the ERA was going to smoke you guys anyway. Is that accurate?
