Good point. The way most of flyoverland is going right now ... successful & educated millennials generally have to leave and goto a large metro area to find good jobs. Others stay put and fight for the remaining manufacturing jobs. (At least in my personal experience)

I think he was saying millennials couldn’t be bothered to actually go vote. I did, but I just barely make the cut for that demographic ...

I think I caused one for an elderly couple on accident. Was in the passenger seat of a friends car as a teenager and we were giving a couple younger kids a ride home after basketball. One of the other kids had knockoff nerf gun that had jammed ... a REALLY realistic looking one. He hands it to me in the front seat to…

Could always buy them and throw a recent Linux distribution on there. That’s generally what I do with older hardware that starts creaking under the weight of Windows.

False. I might be able to float in the dead sea ... Maybe. Wish I could float ... Looks relaxing

Ah so the first two are basically pulling the the 3rd. Using a solid connection like that is really clever if you have the correct mounting points. Never thought of that before.

“Between three vehicles biting for traction, any one of them could be preemptively yanked forward if it starts to get a little stuck.”

Reminds me of the infomercial “increase your vertical leap” shoes they sold in the mid-90s. They were basketball shoes without the heel essentially. Forced you to walk around on the balls of your feet to force the calves to grow. Being a poor kid that couldn’t afford such things, I walked around on my toes and after a…

My logical side wants to agree with you, but my programmer side says that the easier of the two problems, city driving vs highway are the higher speed highways due to less/no cross-traffic and other various obstacles.

These examples are what I’d call riots, terrorism, attempted exterminations or flat out battles, not a “mass shooting” like we saw the other day. (Which I figure was also domestic terrorism ... no matter what the guy’s “goal” was.)

I like to think that the STs showing up in America is all my fault :) (I know it’s not, but indulge me)

“... kids in sporty cars ... became unbearable to people”

Good point. I missed the bit where this was a 450. Most of my experience is in high-spec 150 and 250s. 450 is probably stiffer and bouncier unloaded on broken highway.

Plus the trucks are amazingly comfortable when cruising the highway. Having driven plenty of miles in luxury cars and suvs ... I’d take these big body on frame beasts 9 times out of 10.

To me this type of stuff is exactly why we need minor league feeder systems for the kids that don’t want or need to go to college. 1 and done is basically a year in the minors and an unpaid internship. Those kids it seems would be better served making money in a better D-League or overseas.

Here’s how I solved that one, but I only needed to use one of the seats in the back 90% of the time. I just left one of the two seats folded in 1/2 and had the biggest kid climb in through the back and buckle herself in. She was in a booster that doesn’t attach. 2 kiddos could have done that and I would have just…

To be honest, I thought it was a bad photoshop of a GMC front end on a Durango ...

I agree, but a factory run test drive center could totally work. When I bought my Wrangler Unlimited a few years ago I went to a dealer and test drove the power train and looked at the trim-level I wanted. They didn’t have it in stock (I wanted a manual Sport and no one stocks manuals). I shopped around for dealers…

Neutral: The Ultimate Riding Experience just doesn’t have the same ring to it ...

That Audi setup is pretty slick. Personally I wouldn’t want a car specific map implementation though on something I’d own. Google maps are updated constantly, no need to rely on the automaker to keep pushing updates.
