It’s all right, but let’s not get carried away.

They’re all GTs. Half the mid-engine Ferraris even have “GT” in their names.

The Carnot efficiency.

Of course the abundance of pickup trucks is the symptom of their popularity, not the cause.

To everyone who replied correcting his post, and to everyone who starred your replies: whoosh

Do you actually believe that?

Pick-up trucks are slightly ridiculous. They have long hoods, big cabs, and tiny beds, and are generally compromised for use off-road. Most (but not all) commercial applications of the pickup would be far better served by a van, but vans just aren’t part of the North American work truck “uniform” for some reason.

You’ve got some O.Z.s in there

This moralizing brought to you by the same author who celebrates trashing rental cars:

“Destroyed”

Get over yourself.

Some (LOTS) of these knuckle-draggers need to stop acting like they know better than the people engineering these sports cars.

This is rationalizing. I can have fun driving a minivan, too. But it’s still not a great drive. All that enjoyment you unlock by being a skilled driver is that much better in a car that actually handles.

“aircraft aluminum”

The F50 should have been a 333 Stradale.

Just take a moment and think about this in light of our modern standards. It seems absolutely insane. This was a safety advance that had a proven record of being effective at getting people to wear safety belts, but nobody wanted anything to do with it.

What’s with this “there was once a time” nonsense? We don’t have interlocks *today*. People *today* don’t want them, either. They are a bad idea now, and were an even worse idea in 1974 when they would have been implemented with a tangle of junk relays and switches which would have been absurdly unreliable. 

Maybe she did wonder why it was stuck. But once she identified it as the fuel door, her task became “get the fuel door unstuck.”

He’s wrong because he’s a backmarker? Would you reverse your opinion if he were a championship contender?
