The difference is a bicyclist dies when they don't follow the rules (unfortunately even sometimes when they do everything right) a driver in a car might total their car but it's usually no biggie. Should be a big incentive for the cyclist to do everything right and keep their head on a swivel

Never had so many compliments in my life from the opposite sex than when I owned a ford superduty (10 years old w/ 230k miles) on a college campus. I’d say theres some truth to the jeep and likely truck thing

engineers typically make sub par mechanics - they usually end up focusing on the wrong things

It’s so the truck mocks you immediately after your damage the expensive tailgate. They put stickers on the inside edge of the dustbuster minivan doors saying they stick out far and you could hit your head on em too. The only time you’d really see it is if you just hit your head

I think we will find that the diesel pickup fad has reached its peak and will trend downward. Lots of folks getting burned out by expensive maintenance and overall higher cost.

In the area surrounding the auto show it looks pretty awesome with all the big headquarters and other buildings all around. They even…

and now they're steadily marching towards that 5k number again, I'm looking at you 4,000lb Taurus.

Thanks, I appreciate it. If it's any help at all 250's/350's are considered part of the "Super Duty" grouping of trucks rather than the F-series (weird, right?) at least according to wikipedia

why is GM allowed to count their 2500 and 3500 trucks when Ford only gets to count it's F-150. Add in the 250/350 and get back to us
