Best truck I ever had was a 1995 ex-forrest-service F-250. Forrest Service Green. 300 CID I-6. 5-speed Manual Transmission. Triangle Vent windows. Complete stripper except it had an AM/FM radio.

I’m sure Tesla has deleted that evidence by now, anyway.

I think there have been cases where the vehicle was found at fault but they’ve also usually been mechanical issues, like with the pedal getting stuck down by something.

“70 year old driver hits wrong pedal” is way less exciting to talk about though.

Nice car.

If the seller thinks it’s all that and a bag of chips, they should keep it. I doubt anyone else does.

TIL there’s a town in Nebraska called Wahoo.

Also... ND!

Is it really that “venerated”?

Those are incredibly modern looking tailights for a 1985 anything. Like a 90s audi or something. Also, almost 30k?! CP

The Drive is better on ads has a super toxic comment section for some reason. It is all weird boomer trump supporters. I stopped visiting for that reason - the comments are half the fun.

I’m running an ad blocker so I don’t notice. I assume this website wold be unlivable otherwise. I’m showing 42 ads blocked on this page alone.

Cops have every right to be antsy in this country where every wingnut can be packing. As I have said on here before, a local deputy was just walking up to a car that blew a red light in front of him when the guy shot him point blank. Luckily, his vest did his job, and they got the guy the next county over.

  Anyone who acted like Hill did would end up in jail, period. The guy has used his status to get out of trouble since 2014, when he assaulted his pregnant GF. But go in, keep defending him, it's law enforcements fault.

A friend of mine was a career law enforcement officer gradually progressing from a patrol cop in a small local town to the chief instructor of the county police academy.

way back when about 20 years ago when I was younger, more sheltered and more idealistic I wanted to be a cop. Did a whole bunch of ‘train up’ stuff with local, provincial and even some federal officers. Self defense, community volunteer, outreach and all that stuff.

Hill is an all-star player, a Superbowl winner, and one of the fastest receivers in the history of the league, but none of that matters when you’re facing a squad of half a dozen of Miami Dade’s finest.

My cousin left a large police force because they couldn’t deal with the corrupt, lazy or outright racist POSs that come with the job. The way some Officers talked was too much and they needed to leave for their safety (both mental and potentially physical since they couldn’t trust a few to have their back!)

I asked my cousin, who’s in law enforcement, about how they respond to windows being highly tinted during a traffic stop.

Interesting. Yeah, I see that U.S. light truck sales are up almost 250% since 2009.
