Just did a search for that. Pretty damn good.

The feature I’d like to see adopted as standard safety equipment is hazard lights on heavy braking that Porsche provides. I’m guessing it uses an accelerometer that detects braking g force above 1g and triggers the hazard lights until it falls below that threshold.

According to Francis Bacon, “There is no excellent beauty that hath not some strangeness in the proportion.” or as Jeremy Clarkson once said about Keira Knightley, “she’s just an ironing board with a face and she works”

What a strange combination of words. From everything I’ve gathered online, Spirit rates just below extended nurples. Godspeed to you, David.

At this point, AM/FM/Bluetooth is perfectly fine for a base trim level. BMW did this a few years back and I see no reason why Ford shouldn’t offer a trim that’s focused on a car’s core purpose. Sure the “slippery slope” is there, but consumers always react and find value elsewhere. As you said, it’s the 80's all over

The National Transportation Safety Board determines that the probable cause of the crash in Tempe, Arizona, was the failure of the vehicle operator to monitor the driving environment and the operation of the automated driving system because she was visually distracted throughout the trip by her personal cell phone.

Everything I know about the TT I learned from James Pumphrey and he featured this model in the Up To Speed episode on the TT and I was smitten. I don’t know the Blue Book value of these things, but I know there’s not a lot of this edition and this one looks well sorted. This looks like great weekend fun.

Came here for this. You can stand up and gather your things and still be respectful of the people around you. It’s why I prefer the aisle seat.

My 2¢ as a new parent: Talk to the flight attendants before you take your seat. We fly Southwest a lot and the forward lavatories are the only ones with a diaper change table. Since you can no longer congregate by the cockpit waiting in line for the lav, it’s best to get a seat as close to the front as possible so you

Esther, how is it that you’ve missed this chart?

That’s just city life. Car horns are a necessity. It’s the entitled defectives who stand on their horn from six cars back because the light turned green 0.02 seconds ago that need to be punched in the mouth for abusing it. 

Regardless of where you stand on this issue, “honking won’t help” should be every city driver’s mantra before turning the key. People who stand on their horn are the worst.

We can all speak with precision, but do you always carefully select your words in casual conversation? Had I wrote what I meant in my original comment - “most people I know” - there’d be nothing to talk about here.

This has been discussed. The 70 Barracuda did indeed have shoulder belts - on the headliner. The occupant had to pull it down, attach to the tongue of the belt and insert into the buckle to use it.

Apparently from other commenters, they were mandatory for the factory to install them. In the 70 Barracuda, you had to pull down the shoulder harness from the headliner and attach to the tongue, then insert into the buckle if you wanted to use it. That decision was left up to the seat occupant.
