Yeah, that was supposed to be part of it. Receive information from NORAD then it would actively track incoming threats and counter fire. A local ended up being killed from a fall during construction, a board or sheeting covered a vertical shaft, and it gave out on them.

It would likely need to be a super low hanging car or have an issue. Most rail cars are high enough off the tracks. Most that are low hung outside of passenger cars isolate the cargo well from the rail itself.

lol, I don’t think we have that type of sign around here.

The image shared by the news is to keep the switch tracks free of ice and debris. Here in Northwest MN they have propane tanks along side the switches and supposedly have a method to heat them using the propane.

My ZR2 suffers on interstate above 70 mph with the cut out bumpers so I tend to stick to highways of the time is similar. My WRX could pull above EPA rated highway mpgs which was alright. I logged 23.5k in the first year with that car.

The environment is also designed for the turbo conditions in the 4 cylinder. Sure the combustion will be different, but the engine was designed with that premise. You don’t design to a different goal, slap a turbo on and call it good.

That is pretty cool. Growing up in ND you see plenty of relics. Like the Nekoma pyramid on the prairie. It was operational for all of 1-2 weeks if that before a treaty shut it down.

The threat would be addressed. They mention how detectable it will be... Don’t think it would be a concern.

Wrong, Russia doesn’t have as much faith in being able to pinpoint a target so they build bigger weapons than the US. Have heard this on many accounts. My mom works at one of the Cold War’s top 5 targets by Russia, a powerful radar station for the polar shot.

Dang. I ride from time to time for work testing machines.

They simulated it in a really pathetic way. Why not put the pickup in park with 4wd engaged and with the parking brake?

The Roxor though is 100% not US road legal. Sure some states and local ordinance allow them to run on roads as “legal”.

It really isn’t a pickup cab, but an SUV with a half cab. I mean the style of cab/box combo is just like the ‘46 Willys CJ2A that I have torn apart. It was used with a cab that just enclosed the seated area leaving the box floor open so that it could be used for the sprayer on the farm for years.

Well there aren’t any engineering unions... I guess, I hear Boeing has one.

Technically all vehicles are air cooled though... Without a radiator that takes coolant away which then needs atmosphere to cool through convection/conduction. Part of the reason they use fans to keep air moving at a certain mass flow rate.

Rough course, LMP1H teams have come stateside just to test at Sebring when they didn’t run there. I think that says something to how important to development they seem to think Sebring is.

Well single, and single income (well some money on weekends farming) I bought a 45k pickup not long after buying my house. If I already had a pickup, I was going to look at used ~10 year old 911 turbos. Maybe in another 5 years unless I start farming then all extra money goes to buying capital.

But the districts had been set since 2010, correct? Or is district redrawing happening every election? I thought that was the importance to Democrats at the state level in 2018 is to control gerrymandering for 2020 census results.

No it doesn’t... He won by the vote of the people in how the strategic votes of the electoral college matter. The people elected him. It might not be the popular vote nationwide that elected him, but the popular vote in areas that resulted in how electoral college votes are awarded voted for him.

He holds the office, whether you like it or not. Former President Obama made many of the same “jackass” moves, but he was more eloquent with how he attacked people. The biggest “jackass” move being the fact he told people they could keep their healthcare while knowing well that they wouldn’t be able to.
