KBB is not good for anything older than 20 years or even remotely collectable.

It’s interesting that they left out safety, being as it’s a big reason for the cost increase.

Now we’re just getting silly.

Not $26K.

This isn’t a hobby, this is his job, it’s how he earns a living, same for those inside the car with him.

Skywarn is not about chasing tornadoes, they even tell you not to.

Skywarn is a fantastic system(!) and is a great starting point for getting into this. I highly recommend everyone, especially anyone who lives in an area with tornadoes or hurricanes to take the class, it’s free and you will learn a ton.

You assume he means fuel.
I’m pretty sure he meant out of gas due to the trailer in the road, he said it right as it came into view.

Binoculars can’t measure speeds inside a tornado or tell you how it’s constructed inside, remember, he’s a researcher.

It’s not crazy.

Red will be the most effected, white probably the least.

99.99% of the time something stupid happens in:
Arizona it’s probably Maricopa County (and/or Sheriff Joe Arpaio).
Florida, it’s probably Broward County.

Occasionally, the rear suspension has a tendency to rip the floor out of the trunk due to how the diff is mounted. It doesn’t seem to matter if you drive it hard or easy. ALWAYS check the trunk seams before buying one and immediately replace the water pump and timing chain tensioner.

When you have money like that, and mod your cars like that, odds are resale value isn’t really a concern.

I’m all for keeping the A-10 and ditching the Joint Strike Fighter entirely (for good!), but are we sure we want a bunch of politicians who have never been in the military deciding what and how the military allocate funds by passing laws? It sets a dangerous precedent, while you agree with them this time, what about…

If you ever get the chance, watch one do a combat take off while empty. Nothing that large should be capable of flying almost straight up.

Try an aircraft tow vehicle... Same seats with an added bonus of no suspension.

Many of the military hummers were/are no better. A lot of military vehicles have little more padding than that.

Exactly why I prefer not to have cupholders or any place you can “store” trash. If there is a place for it, it gets used and never emptied.

Ford was still using the flathead v8 until 1953 (1973 in Germany!), these got an average of around 18mpg, but overdrive transmissions could get 23-28mpg depending on who you asked and the speeds it was measured at, but that’s best case scenario on the highway. Around town the Ford could dip into single or very low…
