More, as I am sure you would be receiving some loyalty rewards after 4 years in a hotel....
I don’t have money like this. Maybe I will understand when I do.
I do have coleman tent/air mattress/cooler money, so that is what I do with my 4x4.

Er..... Huh?  I think this was better directed further down the line.  Kinja be crazy sometimes.

I appreciate the clarification. You can also see that the non-greys spoke up, so it must have been just me missing bug talk. I am sorry if I sounded accusatory; I really wasn’t trying to be.

That said, can we continue to explore the sub-culture of VWs, bugs included, in some future postings?  I’d love to hear about…

“It is not known how many were damaged by the blaze.”
Er. All of ‘em?
Based on the picture and the firetrucks (for scale), I am going with “all of them.”

Neutral.
I get that it is in the “Neutral” section, Raph, but this non-stop discussion of bikes on a car blog.... The optics seem like you may not be a “car guy.” I mean, we all have other passions that we enjoy; I see that, but I have literally no idea what you drive. Are you the Fit guy? I don’t have to ask that…

Mercedes, nice write up. There is a bit at the end where you meant ‘scrape’ but have ‘scrap’.
Still, I was stoked to see the picture of the armor. That is way more proof than words.

I do have to wonder, though, when journos get these events, do they take a little less care because they hand the keys back at the end? …

I’m torn between
“You need backpressure to make torque”
and
“Just gut the cats; it makes more power”

Now, not necessarily ‘overheard’, but I asked about the default voltage on an ‘06 TJ’s MAF, as I needed another part. I had to leave it out until I got a bit for the CAI, and I was wondering if I would run excessively lean…

Tide is great unless you have even slightly sensitive skin, then you just claw your flesh off to feel better.

You aren’t wrong, but I think that has to do with creeping vehicle size. I remember my fast and furious days when I upgraded to 15" wheels on my SE-R.

Now I am in a 2012 Nissan Pathfinder, which was yuge when it debuted in *checks notes* 2005. I have 35's on it with a 5" lift. The kids in the pickup line at school…

Hey, I work in IT also!

He was not referring to the Rogue, as you well know, regardless of Nissan’s marketing department calling it an “SUV”.  It is a tall, unibody car with a CVT.  Their 4th gen Pathfinder was a minivan without sliding doors.  This article appears, to my senses, to be referring to the Y62, R51, GMT1xxx, et al.’s of the…

Was it only a one-day affair? That must be a nod to our Western traditions; turnt Indian weddings can go on for a week of celebrations...

I am glad you had fun.

The new one is blaze orange.  I imagine there will be some that like to tout their OG seniority with the red ones, but the orange is coming.

Oh, I am not mad at them for doing it (sorry, greyed out guy; I can only see you in my notifications, but not here to reply to you), and I think it IS better than 180 pound tent at the highest damn point you can put something.
I was really unfair, as I did not see that it was Bradley that wrote this.  I was picturing…

FIFY

Yup. My guy switched dealerships. I now drive an hour to my guy.
Why?  I used to work with him, and he is honest all the way to being financially hurt by his honesty.

This.
I am glad I wasn’t the only one considering what needed to be cut to get to the frame rails.
My guess is that the whole fascia will go away up to the line of the crease of the lower ‘eyelid’, thus preserving the “L” badge.
If these are solid axles (I, sadly, don’t know), then the lift should be a cinch.  Get the…

Oh, we’ve moved on to the ad hominem arguments and baseless accusations? Nice.
Well, then, if that is the case, you can take your incorrect, selfish, mouth-breathing, flat-brim hat-wearing ass and your super-stanced-Subie and come visit me in one of the 100th largest cities in the US, where I can fail to show you why…

Correct. You do see...
So he was the first one “through”, which leaves us with what? 2/3rds of a thoroughfare suddenly blocked and at least 4 people having just been in an accident. That should free up the right side, making it easy to get over. He did not; he ‘checked his rearview’ (presumably for head and neck…

Was it, though? 2/3rds of a three-lane highway came to a sudden stop when four vehicles were involved in rear-end collisions? He was, per his description, the first one through. Everything that could be an escalation happened behind him.
I am also not saying that EVERYONE should stop.  I think that the person that saw…
