Nice thing is that once he’s done, there will be no more hard-to-source Lada components besides the sheetmetal.

I was thinking, “$1,800 plus installation for something that seems trivial to me, must be rolling in money” and then thought back to the last few times we bought hay for the horses.

Hopefully their battery performance will be audited by the proper authorities.

Wow. Around here it was guys driving around with vans buying them for cash.

From a good-governance perspective, I believe the current administration should focus on effective regulation of these industries to ensure they serve the American people in a way that justifies the monopolies and other privileges they’ve accrued under law.

Dang. Keep up the Bidenomics and we’ll be getting negative unemployment.

“We were trying to find out if Urban Commons … took the money and pocketed it. We didn’t find evidence of that,”

Huh, thought it was a Kel-Tec. It’s a simple, cheap design for a 9mm spray-and-pray, makes sense that there would be even-cheaper knockoffs.

They are ideal for the inseam-challenged, it’s true. And I always wanted an Ascot VT500. Saw a kid on a clean, lightly customized one the other day and remarked on how nice and how rare it was, and I think he had no idea what I meant. Maybe I should offer to trade him my SV for it.

Bring out a socket set and a six-pack. Click the ratchet every once in a while and enjoy some beer and solitude.

That Benzo knows what it did.

“Welp, ever since they told us we had to stop killing n-*ahem* people of color, our hands have been tied and we really can’t enforce anything anymore.”

As long as the police are on a malicious-compliance strike, yes.

Anononymity + Audience = Asshole.

The Hawk GT is also dear to many:

Came here to say this, thank you for your service. Here’s a 1961 model, picture from the Studebaker National Museum.

I love how these guys just go “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, therefore you can’t regulate firearms.” I mean, serious gun regulation was considered perfectly reasonable for the first couple centuries and only shifted significantly in the last thirty-odd years.
