I would be willing to bet that this was shipped over there new as an American embassy vehicle and then left behind when Saigon fell in April 1975.
Everybody calls the superspeedways the “equalizer” tracks, but I think the super short tracks like Martinsville and Bristol are much more so. Matt DiBenedetto regularly drove the wheels off the craptastic backmarker cars he had at those tracks, and if I recall correctly, placed 6th at Bristol in a BK Racing car.
“the new Supra is not a Z4"
Except that Picard is NOT in the Kelvin timeline. It’s in the Prime timeline. The supernova that destroyed Romulus and precipitated the events that sent Spock and Nero back in time was in the Prime timeline. It LED to the Kelvin timeline, and if screeching YouTube choads can’t be bothered to, I don’t know, watch the…
You never know - perhaps the old Hebrew way of life held appeal for some people from the nation without a home.
Maybe relatively was the wrong word. Comparatively, perhaps? I mean, I’ve never been unhappy with 240 HP. I guess that when I look at a Toyota Camry with 300 HP, I’m just kind of like, “Huh.”
I spent all day yesterday driving. Most of that driving was at 70+, and a good chunk of it was at 80.
In case you haven’t noticed, any time they post something that’s political or celebrity drama related, it’s either from Foxtrot Alpha, their military subblog, or it has some sort of automotive involvement. They don’t just do it for shits and giggles.
I would argue that Rise of Skywalker absolutely did not need to say goodbye to Han Solo. The Force Awakens did that just fine.
I have a hot take:
1st: HAH! WHAT NOW, BOOMERS?!
I haven’t bought a TV in over eight years. Back in 2011, I purchased a 42" Samsung LCD TV that is now in my office at home and still works brilliantly, even if it does weigh a surprising amount.
So, this definitely wouldn’t be a logical car for the States, but if they’re targeting Europe, it makes perfect sense. If you live in an urban center, you would very rarely need more than 130 miles of range in a given day, and given the congestion of most European cities, you won’t need more than 140 horsepower and…
My dude, if you’re 26, you’re on the tail end of the Millennials. Gen-X generally ends in 1980, Millennial from 1981-1996 (with the 1977-1983 period being the Xennial or “Oregon Trail” sub-generation), and ‘97-onwards is Gen Z.
On the one hand, I can sympathize. If I was somebody with access to a brand new, not-yet-available to the public Corvette, I might be tempted to do some stupid, dangerous shit.
Not this week.
Optimistic of him to think that Mississippi will still be around in 100 years, let alone 1,000.
Neutral: Now, hold up there, hoss. I own a 2013 X1, the first year it was available in the States. Its ride height is all of five inches higher than a thirty year old Ford Taurus wagon. It’s got a low center of gravity and all wheel drive, and for a guy like me who’s got a bad right shoulder and a bad left knee…
