There is a massive difference between book smarts and streets smarts in engineering. I’m an engineer with a decent amount of both, but I was frequently flabbergasted by engineers who couldn’t do simple building building tasks. My college had a Human Powered Submarine team that I was part of, and we held a “get to…

Considering the current state of affairs, an entire theater of assumed liberal man-hating-women who want to cuckold the penises is a much larger target than any other theater.

I went through the entire series and a couple decades following before the internet pointed this out. My mind was blown. Glad it was for a reason instead of some weirdness.

Yeah, the pillar-less design would require more strength and less room to cram a curtain airbag.

Riker’s got this:

They might need to be, but they’re not going to be. If they can’t even agree to a single charging standard, how the hell are you going to get them to agree on overall vehicle standards?

That is HIGHLY debatable. Xterra has a pretty big step up that’s been a hallmark of the vehicle’s design since inception through two generations. The shape of the FJs roof is pretty normal. The contrasting paint color sets it off. The pillarless door treatment may have cause the side curtain headaches, though.

But side curtain airbags must include the second row occupants. The Frontier does not share the roof line past the front doors. They would have to make two distinct systems for each vehicle.

I know of at least one vehicle—a certain off-roader, let’s just say that—that was discontinued entirely because changing curtain airbag regulations would have meant the entire shape of the vehicle had to be redesigned.

Because the little symbol on that switch glows, like on my car, and it cheaper to make the light glow through the material and the unpainted symbol instead of make a single little light shaped like whatever. Or maybe it doesn’t glow, so they make the plastic the color of what the want the symbol to be, in this case…

Actually working as an engineer is one of the biggest letdowns of my life when compared to my expectations. Glad other engineers are the same.

Looks like it ate through it’s butt.

They kept exactly the same greenhouse shape and chopped off the nose and tail. That’s why.

Same. Shouldn’t it be “from hereon in” not just “from hereon?”

And exchange meaningful gifts:

Bush and Benny were the real power couple. Fist bump for Jesus!

If you’ve seen any of the other trailers, it insinuates that’s exactly what happens. Stark takes the suit back after Peter does something.

How the hell have I not seen these?

It doesn’t help that they shrunk the Edge and blew up the Escape. If they were the correct scale next to each other, it would be easier to tell which was which.

Caramel on caramel on caramel is a bold choice. With wire wheels? Even better. But that price is like a rapper in a Fast and Furious movie.
