My wife and I both drive our Kia Rondo and are quite happy with it. Bought it as an ex-rental with 38k miles, haven’t done a single thing to it except oil changes and a belt replacement. Now at 110k miles and still hauls the kids and dogs on vacation with ease.

I recently started doing trail-a-bike rides with my daughter also. It is pretty much the best thing ever to hear the squeals coming from behind you. Great idea pointing the camera at her.

Get an old Saturn. They are unloved and made out of plastic.

We’re on the same page. I was thinking of the cop from True Blood.

They already have that. All cars advertise their range.

I would like to recognize the quality camera work that went into this. All too often an epic stunt is ruined by being filmed in 320x240 15fps portrait mode. This is in stunning HD, slow motion, and the framing is excellent throughout. Bravo.

General rule of thumb is that you need to get a garage queen fully up to temp once every month to avoid problems.

That probably had more to do with it being a 10 year old Pontiac 6000LE.

I’m doing the same having started at 31. If you have any mechanical intuition it is quite easy.

He specifically addressed this! Each light by itself is big enough by itself, so it passes.

Porsche is under the VAG umbrella, so VW counts for them too. In the US the problem may be that VAG sells relatively few economy cars.

Turbos and intercoolers are also heavy. LS engines are often equal-weight swaps with aluminum turbo 4 cylinder engines, they are quite space/weight efficient.

1. Buy it

In a Koenigsegg, it will be your ass. Those interiors are not exactly spacious.

This is an artifact from 30 years ago where power levels were lower. When most cars couldn’t break 100 mph, being able to say your sport coupe could do 130 on the autobahn was a big deal. I agree that almost all cars now have the power to go unreasonable speeds.

This is legitimately entertaining to watch.

A fairly easy solution for the outputs would be an I2C I/O driver. A multiplexer would certainly work, but options are good and I’m sure there are I2C drivers available for Arduino so you don’t have to start from scratch.

I find that suburban police will pull over anyone they can find an excuse for after 10pm on a weeknight to look for DUIs. I got pulled over one night for a tail light being out, and told the cop I had a beer at the baseball game I just left, so he immediately pulled me out for a sobriety test. I passed the test and he…

In Maryland you can get any police officer in the state to sign off that you fixed it. Just go to any police station or flag one down in a parking lot and they can sign it off electronically, you don’t even have to mail it in.

Are you on rennlist? That sounds familiar...
