I mean, I’m pretty sure that’s how a limo service can work, if you request it.

Well, I wouldn’t lose my head over it. 

Don’t care. This is a Rich Whyte people problem.

Wow. Those are real questions rather than just bagging on Tracy.

I wonder if I could place a sticker in the middle of the rear window proclaiming my willingness to perform... certain acts. Will this truck accommodate said sticker, or is it only Chevy’s?

How does it feels to drive something that looks, smells and runs good ?

I’m going to leave this as a comment on every single blog about a camouflaged prototype from now on.

As a Gen X-er, you’re wrong. We got fucked by the boomers in every way imaginable. We’re tired. Our parents still won’t fucking retire and are still telling us how to vote. We get told we’re stupid for wasting our money on shit that they would never buy or don’t understand. They told us that “you can never lose on

Oh yeah, it has an LSD.

You were under the towing limit, but were you under the maximum combined gross limit (GCWR)? That’s effectively how much weight your vehicle can safely control, including stopping. 

It hurts how much this is true. I have corporate experience relating to dealers. Once you see how the sausage is made, it confirms all that you thought you didn’t like about dealers.

“Charlie Chesbrough, senior economist for Cox Automotive, told AutoNews that he has a working hypothesis. Mainly, it costs more to buy a car these days, and it’s tough to borrow the money to do it. It’s pretty tough to sell to a market that doesn’t have the means to buy.”

Oh yeah it'll move it. But stopping is important too 😉

I’ve always had a gut feel that these ramps were ridiculously too long. I also assumed some engineer figured out how long it needs to be and added some margin while minimizing cost. This video shows that physics can’t be beat and that ramp was engineered to the appropriate length. I’m glad that truck driver kept a cool

A few years ago at the California State Fair CalTrans brought their 18-wheeler driving simulator for all to try. Even in that artificial environment you realize the massiveness and challenges of driving one. I gained a new appreciation for big rig drivers.

Saw fuzzy gif and immediately assumed Eisenhower Tunnel.

Why? Why won’t Tony Stark be driving it in future Iron Man or Avengers movies? Does it get stolen or something?

It’s not catching on for a couple of obvious reasons. They’re expensive, and the vast majority of people with vehicles that can accept one don’t need one. People who want to pose some jerry cans and other gear they never use on their roofs are rare enough, though they seem to be as common as bead lock wheels on

At least Kawasaki doesn’t sell chaps so HD has that market cornered.

How exactly does one determine “Broken” in such a vehicle? I’m assuming this is a fluid concept...
