I was taught to pick the bike up behind your back. So turn around, grab a handlebar behind you with one hand and something else with the other and do a kind of awkward, backwards deadlift to get the bike back on its tires. Prevents you from hurting your back since you can’t round it.  Had to use it once on my CBR…

And then they could slant it just a little bit ...

You can also look for “Recreation Fuel” as it has 0% Ethanol. Ethanol and carbs are not friends...

Having a small trailer doesn’t really require much space. To haul my motorcycle around and other random yard stuff I bought one of those Harbor Freight folding trailers and it’s been some of the best money I ever spent! Folds up and stands up at the front of the garage super easy and takes up about the same floorspace…

BOTH is best!  - Signed a Michigander that’s had all the combos

100% - I was going to say outward visibility. Very refreshing when I hop into our 60's mustang and don’t miss the backup camera. I understand the crash safety aspect ... bound to be a way to do it without requiring 10 inch wide A&B pillars, a “belt line” that’s higher than Spanx and giant headrests that make the…

If there’s a city that can host an event it is Vegas. There will certainly be enough hotel rooms, restaurants, bars. There’s the monorail to get around. There are about a million billboards that could be used for showing the race.

Just depends on what problem you’re optimizing for. Combusting the hydrogen is probably simpler and cheaper to build out. Converting to electric with a fuel cell may be more efficient but more expensive and difficult to build. Both would be great bridge technologies to going full electric while the charging infrastruct…

I’m no expert. I did do some self-defense and martial arts stuff in college for fun and exercise. We trained a few different scenarios, knife on knife, knife on hand, gun to head and such.

I loved the ‘07 Ford Interceptor concept. Reminded me of a mid-60 Continental.

Sounds like the original Bear Grylls ... survival TV show where if they panned right or left just a bit too much you’d see the 5 star resort everyone was staying in when not filming

2WD trucks are bad in the snow? I once got stuck in a 2WD truck on 100% flat grass. Not after a rain mind you, but a dewy summer morning.  That truck sat still when it snowed!

I think that’s the key. Do you regularly get warm in the winter? If yes, good all season ATs is probably fine, especially if AWD and you understand their limitations. If it stays below freezing for a couple months ... just buy snows.

Like someone else mentioned, in anywhere that gets snow and is cold this is very incorrect. For a few years we had a stable of a FWD Ford Flex and a JKU Wrangler (elocker in the back). One winter, wife got stuck multiple times in the neighborhood on her all seasons. The next winter I bought dedicated snow tires & rims,…

You’re right! But it’s not an unwashed masses thing, it’s a seriousness thing.

P71 or any of the other Panther platform cars. Body on frame. Bulletproof detuned V8. Ancient 4 speed auto slushbox. If P71, cop suspension and brakes ... designed to just hit a curb and keep going.  

NP for me, always wanted to get in a Bently. I hardly ever commute anymore now that W@H is here to stay so I don’t care too much about day to day reliability and if it had to sit for a bit waiting on an expensive repair ... whatever. Would be fun for the price to valet like a baller on date night with the wife.  As a…

They do look super fake. I was assuming they were added later in CGI ... but why? Cones are cheap and easier to just put them on the road rather than photoshoping them.  Looked super fake in the video.

Sports cars are dumb sure, but what if you gave your teenage daughter a sports minivan?

I know that’s the case, but in my experience they are generally underpowered and get drowned out.  We’ve got a classic car and it’s still got the original AM radio ... works fine (speaker needs replacing through).  It’s really fun to pickup AM channels on the dial, but they seem to go out after a few miles.  Probably…
