I bought a new car in 2000, and it had headlights that automatically turned off, which was pretty rare then. But they turned off about fifteen or twenty seconds after you hit the lock button. Sometimes I’d be walking away from it in a parking lot and some helpful person would tell me my lights were on.

Some years ago on a road trip with my then-girlfriend I played music on car’s stereo from my phone via aux cable. When, for some reason, I decided it was enough music I disconnected the phone. When I did that radio kicked in for a moment before I turned it off. My girlfriend couldn’t understand how come there still…

I had a 1998 Buick Regal GS (man I miss that car) that had the traction control button right in the middle of the center console, after a trip to Mohegan Sun Casino in CT with my wife we were on the highway and she asked me what the “Trac” button did and what would happen if she pressed it.

Did Toyota sue Honda when the second-gen Insight looked a lot like the Prius? No. And many big rigs are indistinguishable from each other on first glance. Form follows function - if you want aerodynamics, physics works the same for everyone and when you’re starting from similar places, your results will be similar. So…
As others noted, it’s completely bent in the wrong ways. While I wasn’t able to find what materials he used for it, that car’s after photos aren’t consistent with how a cage is supposed to act.

No. Don’t do it. Don’t anyone do it.
Can Am was like a torrid affair with an amazingly hypersexualized psychotic. The thing that made it amazing made it unsustainable. And unrepeatable.
I don’t know that the advice regarding a small-motored car is sexist, per se. The book was written in the age of hand-cranked starters, and starting a large car engine took serious muscle. Starting a 190cc lawn mower with a pull-cord is somewhat difficult for my wife; cranking a 700cc engine would be downright hard.
If he was brought back after mediation, that means the company jumped the gun and fucked up.
I think unions are great at ATTAINING fair treatment for their employees in early days but the problem is that the union then has to keep justifying it’s existence and eventually it gets out of control when it’s around for too long because to justify their existence they just keep asking for more and more and more…
