Eh, that’s a useful metric for people who don’t know how to use a gearbox.

...Also because your exhaust pipes are pointing out the back of the car and there’s generally some means of sound deadening between them and you.

My barber is pushing 80 years old and has an RD350 that he bought new that he still rides.

My dad one of those when I was 10. In the era of Rad Racer, I thought it was the coolest thing in the world.

$5k to swap out a bumper cover and mount some flares without blending them into the body? $7k for a paint job without even spraying the engine bay? Dude.

I think this falls under the “employer/employee” dynamic that you mentioned as obviously problematic.

...Yeah, that’s really not too far of a stretch from saying “It was the result of a murder that went wrong. It was intended to be a secret murder that nobody knew about.”

I’m about 99.99% sure this particular one is a scam, but you can find pushrod 302 powered ones for ~$30k

Bah, The world was like 99.99% religious fundamentalists up until a few hundred years ago.

Yeah... like, hey, maybe don’t have any more babies that’ll grow up to drive cars and eat food and generate trash... and then probably go on to make more babies themselves to grow up and do the same thing.

For a while I owned a C5, an R53 Mini Cooper, and an SN95 Mustang GT... All manuals.

That’s not really a “these days” type thing... They’ve always been doing that.

Witnesses at the bar said he was drinking out of a straw before getting on the scooter. He’s going away for a long time.
