LUCKY. I crawled away with the Herps, 3 types of COVID, Super Aids, and violent diarrhea so violent it ate hole through my toilet I even had to install a seatbelt. I now have to register my bathroom as a Superfund site and the scientists say it wont be safe for human habitation until sometime in the mid 2050's, thank…

lol yeah not the best looking. And while the V12 sounds nice the screaming of the GMA T.50 V12 sounds so much nicer.

Yeah that’s generally the way it works most places, hence the pull into the intersection while waiting to turn left, you’re guaranteed to get to make your turn.  Unless you live in one of those strange places where the oncoming line doesn’t turn red when the left turn arrow does. I think I have seen it like that once…

Maybe GMA, Gordan Murray Automotive.

Yeah I think everyone goes through yellow lights, I know I do 100% of the time locally if I am familiar enough with the intersection that I know I will have time to be through or 90% through the intersection before it turns red. And yes even where I am, running a red light is common, typically it’s a column of cars…

You might be right on the 7 day thing. The “conventional wisdom” I heard is for regular smokers it was like 30 days. That said for heavy smokers it could stay in your system longer, and the more body fat you have could lead to it being in your system longer.

I assume the 38k for the wing is because it’s, hopefully, carbon fiber.  And carbon fiber always has a premium.  But otherwise I agreee.

I think they banned them here, I would have to go back and find the actual wording on the amendment, because it was a 3rd parts issuing the tickets, not law enforcement, and at least here we banned them prior to 2019 because of that.

Thankfully I knew about them, and our main street is well lit at night, you could legit drive with no headlights perfectly fine, you should NOT do that, so it wasn’t as shocking as it could have been if the street lights weren’t there.

LOL guess we grow em smarter down here in Texas /s the area around where I live was historically farm and ranch land so a lot of the thick forest was clear out 100+ years ago, now further out in the county deer and hogs are still more of a problem.

That makes sense, that’s the way it was near my moms old subdivision, though most of that is recently gone for more subdivisions.  

Well to be fair you can only make a truck, Hummer, or SUV so aerodynamic.   But also a fast EV, well its easy and boring.  You can make just about any EV a sub 3 second 0 to 60 vehicle.

Pretty much, it’s the primary issue with EV’s he moment. More range means more battery means more weight, which means more battery to still have decent range. I mean if they can vastly up the efficiency of the EV Motors, that might help, but they are already up in the 85% efficiency area, and I think there are things…

I 100% would have gotten one of those lol, the right on red without fully stopping, hell I do it almost daily when safe. I might have got that last one depending on what led up to you getting it. Like if I am at an unprotected left with a yellow arrow waiting to turn, I have been in the intersection when it turned red…

lol that’s wild.  We don’t really see them in town proper.  But you drive out from where I was coming and it’s still in “town” but there are more forested areas, but this was right across the street from a cemetery and way more into town that I had ever seen one.

Yup, but this is the euro equivalent, I think. they don’t run tractor trailer style big rigs over there like we do in the US.  I mean they have them, but these I think are like the big semi rigs they have over there that don’t have a 5th wheel style connection.

Yup my mom and her hubby had one, not nearly this nice or new, and they didn’t pay a HUGE amount for it. I mean it wasn’t cheap but I think they got their for under 200 and towed his truck behind it. They got it to camp/live, down in Galveston and vacation, thought they didn’t keep it that long. They took it on a trip…

Unlikely, it’s a whole weight to distance ratio. Heavier car needs more battery, more battery means more weight.

It’s not really ridiculous, these converted bus style RV’s are fairly regular.

It’s not even rural my mom lived in a subdivision and regularly saw deer. The only time seeing a deer this time of year is an edge case is in the middle of LA or NYC. Hell I almost nailed a huge buck less than 2000 feet from a major highway near a huge grocery store complex and subdivisions.
