Synchronized gears alleviate the need for double clutching, true... but failing to rev match downshifts results in additional clutch wear and driveline shock by having to absorb for the mismatched speed differential. Heel& toe is the proper way to rev match a downshift while braking and can be a quite useful technique…

whats more expensive? clutch rebuild of your 6r80 or a brake job on an F150? whichever is cheaper, do that.

Awwwww baby panzer!

He probably put a lot of thought into those torque ratios

I hate establishments that are valet only! My friends make fun of saying things like “they park more expensive cars than yours”, but they are missing the point. I don’t care what they have parked in the past! If i’m willing to park and walk, why cant I? I had a friend who had just given birth and was being discharged…

You have to understand that people with money always finance cars when the interest rates are low. Anyone with excellent credit can get sub 2% auto loans right now so you take the cash you would spend on the car and invest it. Past years would have returned 5-12%/yr on that money in reasonable investments.

Jason/Jalopnik, have you ever interviewed a car-caster? I’d love to bend their ear on how vehicles are chosen, the various challenges, etc.

The show is great, but the bicycles are totally NOT era correct! As a vintage BMX nut that bummed me out, but the show is so amazing that is really the only thing wrong.

I’ve been incorrectly predicting a rebranding for decades now. I can’t imagine a more negatively loaded brand name than “Cigarette." They should just drop the façade and call the thing a cock.

If kleenex, the company, made a spoon I’d still have trouble calling it a kleenex even though it would be one.

Cigarette is a company that makes different sport boats. Their style of race boat has been typically called “Cigarette boats,” no matter what brand they are, but Cigarette (the company) makes other models. Think Rollerblades. Actually a brand name that stuck for all inline skates, regardless of brand.

It’s like live action Pokemon Go. These guys caught a rare one and have her in their gym.

“...the kidnappers looked to be around 18 years of age”

Shit, I’m half his age exactly and my dick doesnt work like it did 10 years ago....and I’m an athlete!

That got off-topic real quick.

A vegetarian lady was denied this plate.

Words to live by.

Aquarium is a bit of a stretch, more of a fish tank. Still dope though, the whole airport is pretty damn awesome

Since you only have the idea, and not the implementation, you should prepare yourself to get Winklevossed.
