Most dealers don’t even want you to order the manual either. They’d much rather push you around and get you to buy an auto that’s currently on the lot.

So buy it just because it’s has a manual transmission? What if there are other aspects of the car that don’t make it as appealing as other competitors?

That’s because in the US jump seating in the cockpit by anyone but the crew has been banned since 9/11. The only realistic way to get cockpit footage from a US airline is for a crew member to film it themselves and post it on social media.

You should come see the airport in Kansas City if you think JFK is bad.

You would have been able to see the runway a lot sooner had they not chose the camera angle they did. The way they set up the camera is basically how someone would see the cockpit if they just walked into the cockpit and stood there behind the pilots. It’s a great way to see what the pilots are doing but it’s terrible…

Well, yeah but a Duke Iron four or a Ford High Swirl Combustion 2.3? Ugggggh, hard pass. They were much better at making V6s and V8s. The Japs absolutely destroyed the Americans at 4 cylinders in the 90's. Not saying that’s something they should be proud of though....

Hahaha that is just fucking great!

To be fair, that’s largely because people in rural areas have a preference for domestic cars in the first place. Most of them never have had a foreign car in their entire life. In my state, Kansas, the small town folks are extremely judgmental towards anyone who doesn’t drive an American car or truck.

Drivers absolutely do not pay attention to motorcycles and bicycles. When I was in college, cars my college town yielded to pedestrians. For whatever reason, as soon as you put two wheels under your feet you might as well be invisible.

No one used them properly and that was part of the problem with this design.

Well, duh. I was replying to someone elses comment about leaving the seat belts buckled all the time.

That was my understanding for it as well. This was also an especially bad design because if the door opens or deforms too much during a crash the seat belt will no longer protect the occupant.

Me too.

I fucking died at the part where they said the trunk was large enough to hold 200 jars of urine. Lmao

Yup. Even straight women are allured by other women.

Ha, I didn’t realize it was a bottle opener too.

Yeah I know right? I wonder how many of them they are selling each month.

Another commenter posted a similar product. I find it hilarious that this product exists. Buckling the seat belt around the back of the seat accomplishes the same thing this product does for free.

I had a classmate back in my days in high school try to tell me that a head on crash at 30 mph is nearly impossible to survive in a modern car because the crumple zones mean the dashboard would be in the back seat.

If I really wanted to not wear my seat belt and stop the warning chime, I would just buckle my seat belt around the back of the seat. It accomplishes the same thing and it’s free. Still, that’s kind of hilarious that there are people who hate wearing their seat belts so much that someone can actually sell these and…
