Renting the tankers? What was Boeing thinking with that? I would like to have seen Boeing attempt to repossess the tankers during a wartime operation.

Amazingly not that hard to do, Car & Driver built a last gen Mazdaspeed 5.

I with Mazda used this upgradeable model, I would love a Mazda Protege5 with a 1.6 or 1.8 SkyActiv drivetrain.

Interesting to see the folded wing bend slightly at the hinges during the roll at 02:22.

Looks just like my 8 year old puppy.

Paint it red, put a tassel on it and sell it to disgruntled Doctor Who fans.

Is there any difference between the two different types of refueling system? There is the flying boom and the probe-and-drogue systems I know that, but I am wondering why some aircraft of the same general size use the flying boom while others use the probe-and-drogue system.

These are PlayStation 1 graphics with my 9 year old nostalgia filter applied.

Well after the Don't Jerk & Drive campaign, what else are they supposed to be doing while driving in South Dakota?

I mean why not make the entire front of the car a big chevy bowtie?

Plausible... A hackney carriage which was formerly used to inspect railways stations in Kumla, Sweden by S. D. Wingqvist, the father the of founder of S.K.F. could have later been imported to the pre-1860s United States.

Nope, sorry. The closest I could get with my admittedly botched job at matching the angles and perspective is one propeller blade hidden behind the guy. Unless they lost two props in flight the other two should be poking out from behind his back or head, they probably looked odd so in post to they were removed in PS.

I bet its the same alternate reality where Pontiac is still around and all of their cars are built on variations of the RWD Kappa and Zeta platforms.

Minivans suck. I leased a loaded Grand Caravan.

Yeah, A really forward looking auto company could basically prepare designs now for the perfect vehicle to sell 20, 40, 60 years into the future. No more having to rush the development of a minivan or crossover in order to capitalize on a trend. Same thing with small things such as rear taillight designs. Just map out…

Yup, it's the classic "I don't want to drive my kids to school in the car my parents drove me to school in" sinusoidal waveform.

Yes, but my comments in this article reside in the mad mad mad The 2014 Oldsmobile Cutlass Is Better Than Ever world. The same world where brand new BMW 6 series look like 15 year old Pontiacs. My first post here in the article was a tongue and cheek reference to Orlove's article but with the sarcastic brand reference…

I don't get what you mean? The car I posted above is manufactured by the American car company Honda(one of the American big three, Honda, Toyota, and Lada). GM on the other hand had just kicked some serious ass in the World Rally Championship with the then just released third generation Chevrolet(a sub-brand of GM)…

... which when released ended up being a Belgian built Opel Kadett wareing Harley Earl's knickers.

Thats a nice looking 6th generation Cutlass Supreme convertible. I am so glad they split the Cutlass Supreme sedan/coupe and convertible into two different platforms so the Cutlass convertible could go back to it's 1960s rear wheel drive roots. It's a shame Oldsmobile dropped the convertible model with the 7th and 8th…
