It was an important detail they had to get right before the finished the movie.

Producer Requirements: Jaw/nose of steel, thick skin

Really? Tarring with a broad brush much? This is one idiot who doesn’t get it, I have honestly never met a man who did this, and as a man I can say it is not something I would ever think to do. Gross generalizations are just that, gross.

Bruce Dickinson must be testing out a new tour plane!

Creamsicle? Looks more like the unfavorable variety of skid mark to me!

The reason most motors fail after as little as 200,000km is that owners regularly forget to properly fill the oil. The correct fill level is to the top of the filler cap. Manufacturers put those guide marks on the dipstick to ensure drivers maintain enough oil so the engine keeps running, but not enough to allow it to…

Pretty much, although more likely eyeing their market share than the actual company in this case.

Maybe the other auto makers were playing the long con, the Engineers suspected what was up, reported it to Corporate/Legal, who concluded there would be a competitive advantage to the eventual discovery of VW's scheme, so they stayed quiet. Or to put it in flow chart form: Step 1: Discover cheating, Step 2: Await…

Cost cutting suggestion for Mitsubishi: save money on electricity by not inflating the tires of their vehicles sent for testing to higher than needed pressure. It's always the little things that save the most money!

My wife has her mothers as well, it approximately the same vintage and in way worse shape than yours!

Nice Moosewood Cookbook!

So chromosomally heterogenic individuals are now banned from writing unless they conform to specific regulations relating to ensuring their content meets the approval of the homo-chromosomal community? Can you imagine the outcry if someone wrote an article demanding women stopped writing essays about their abortions,…

My dog runs on fuzzy logic too, can't drive worth shit, probably can't fly either. Must be a previous release of the software, anyone know how to update?

This is a terrible waste, I wonder how much NOx is going to be released recycling and replacing all these cars. I was hoping to score a cheap diesel motor for my Volkszuki project!

I dunno man, my wife bought one of those and after that I was allowed to buy the huge aging diesel pickup I had been hankering for. I pitched it as “well do you want to ride that thing everywhere?” it worked so well I pretty much have carte blanche on modifying the pickup for more speed and POWAH, what for to allow us…

David, A couple of thoughts for you, as I am in a similar situation myself. I’m 29 and have had a major Land Cruiser problem for the last 12 years, meaning I have spent exponentially more time in greasy shops than greasy bars. I often wonder if I missed out on the best years of my 20's by spending all my time and…

Wow, makes my "firetruck" look pretty sad, it is a 1963 F350 with a 1000l tank and pump chained to the back, I don't even have a siren, or extra axles! At least it actually still carries and pumps water!

I have a TS 6 position chip in my 1996 F250, normally I drive around at +50hp, but if I really need to pass someone, I dial it up to plus 140hp and zoom by. It is one of the most satisfying feelings in the world, and the look on bewildered drivers faces as what appears to be a wore out old truck roars by like they are…

It has been pointed out to me that when I get a bit drunk I channel my inner Clarkson, however it is not the same, it isn’t funny and it isn’t clever, and that is pretty much what it felt like watching New New Top Gear. My money is on the re-animated corpse finally getting put to rest at the end of next season.
