They should’ve stuck with the bugeye :o)

Right there with you. I love the Multipla, and I love how ugly it is. I was going to post it myself but I guess now I’ll have to choose the Aztek.

*leans against car while checking fingernails* “yeah, lot of people ‘round here say I’m a car guy. I’ll let my tattoo speak for itself though.”

Would a warranty even cover brakes? My understanding was they specifically excluded wear items like pads/rotors. 

“Turns out, the finance company won’t approve you if you don’t buy the extended warranty.” Oh yea? The extended warranty company that isn’t affiliated with the finance company in any way but happens to give you a sweet commission for every policy you sell? It’s also illegal to try to force a customer to buy an…

“It’s got a manual transmission.”

I had a Chevrolet dealer in Wisconsin tell me that nobody buys Subarus because they can’t handle winter. I asked him to elaborate but he just went on about how good the Trax is.

Looking at a pre-owned Catera back in the early aughts and the salesperson pops the hood:

Well those things aren’t going to be driving that fast either way.

Great hammer of thor that windshield! I love it. I mean it’s going to be rockchip bait in a big way, but I love it.

WOW. Someone hit that with the fugly stick, HARD.

So much for the EV fleet that would save so much money over the next decade+. Yes, I read the part that said some would be EVs, but what %? This will be a major fail if its not a significant number. Am I reading this right? They’re planning on removing ICEs and converting more to EVs down the road or just updating EV…

True, however with aircraft incidents there’s a bit of selection bias. We don’t hear about the engine failures that don’t make the news. Last year, one of my colleagues lost an engine on takeoff out of Reno which has a very complicated single engine procedure due to the surrounding terrain. They handled it and…

From the Man Who Carried a Big Stick

In 2021 everything is a camera but the camera in your cellphone is vastly different from what goes on NASA spacecraft. The cameras that go on NASA spacecraft have to be extremely hardened to survive the rigors of rocket launches, deep space radiation, and, in the case of rovers and landers, reentry. They cannot use…

“DARE MIGHTY THINGS” has much more impact on the wall of a NASA facility than it does in cut vinyl on the wall of my in-law’s living room.

“This incident could have had a much worse ending”

(Airline pilot here if you have questions) Well, yes this is true, although trivially true of any incident. The danger shown here is that, unlike an engine failure which is a rather benign problem as long as it’s handled properly, the biggest threat is damage to…

I miss my favorite jersey girl. I miss the sofa she burned on the way out even more.

Even fitting an appropriate exhaust to this won’t break the bank.

Ah yes, the custom muffler delete. I know exactly what that means: Dylan here showed up to Meineke where his buddy Eddie is a tech. Eddie installed some “custom made” mandrel bends, and just... didn’t put on any mufflers.
