Power boost is what they are calling the hybrid engine.

Maybe I’m cynical, but I have trouble believing that we, as a society, can function without any sort of policing whatsoever. If the ultimate answer is that caring about serving your community effectively and justly means resigning from serving as a police officer, doesn’t that just mean that the only police officers…

Starred for EXCELLENT doggo. 

Nor a single comment about how cute my dogs are. They’re cute goddamn it. 

Sportwagen is what I use to haul the dogs in the lede image around normally! It handled 150 pounds of pit bull quite well.

So you don’t get pissed when the pup does puppy things (like this morning the current pup produced what looked like an entire plate of actively moving spaghetti…

I was going to suggest Focus RS or FiST too, but they are not the most comfortable things on crap roads.

This is the standard method of attacking a DUI arrest in the US. If you can establish the underlying stop was unlawful, then everything after it was “fruit of the poisonous tree” and gets thrown out.
