It’s the F-117 of trucks.  Home Depot will never know what hit them!

Ummmmm...nope.  I’ll stick with my F-150, thank you very much.

All the Internets are belong to you!

I’m glad to see the IIHS take this step. Just as we were seeing with mileage figures (before the circus came to town), change and higher standards drives innovation. That’s true in most industries, and certainly the automotive industry. We all benefit by these improvements too, so I’m glad to see them up the bar.

Nailed it!

It’s too bad we haven’t adopted the EU laws that protect airline passenger rights. I was once paid about 600 Euros for an Air France flight that was 6-7 hours late due to an aircraft change. I didn’t even know about it. I was contacted to file a claim. Happened a couple other times, but never for an amount that large.

Yeah, his time has come.  Don’t know that we’ll ever see a rider do what he’s done in the sport, but the end comes for everyone eventually.

I’d throw the Mercedes G Wagon into the category of unnecessary cars in their product line.  Yes, they make several crossover and SUV models, but those all have very familiar body lines.  They look like a Mercedes.  They have no need to build the G Wagon, and their product lineup would be fine if they quit making it.

It almost looks like they turned towards the high speed turnoff with a bit too much speed.  In the video, it looks like they started to turn then just pushed right off the runway/taxiway.  Oh well, any landing you can walk away from...

Yeah, the “I’m going to carry on a steamer trunk” movement is getting old.  If you’re not in the first half of the jet to board, you’re pretty much assured of getting aced out of overhead bin space.

I travel a lot for business and have Global Entry, which gives me TSA Pre. My status with Delta give me Clear for free. If you travel a lot, get these. I generally show up 45 minutes before my flight and have no trouble getting to my gate on time. Global Entry is $100 for 5 years, and is the best money I’ve spent on

Agreed.  He’s not going to find one tomorrow, but patience is the name of the game when you’re looking for a specific car.

Be patient, and look around for used Grand Sports in a few years.  That’s really the sweet spot in the C7 lineup.  Love my Z06, but I haven’t “needed” all the horses more than a few times since I bought it.  Find a good deal on a Grand Sport with a stick and feel good knowing you’ve got one of the last true Corvettes.

The judicial system plays an incredibly important part in our democratic system.  There is no way to overstate how important that system is to our freedoms and way of life.  That system is only as good as the folks that are in it, and most do a good job...then you read a story like this and you hope these idiots never

I worked in Riyadh off and on for about two years and it’s definitely a different world. Fun fact, that Ritz Carlton they were locking up all the billionaires in a couple years back? That’s where we stayed...close to the embassy.  Never go anywhere without your passport!

Your right to privacy is being trampled on just about every day. Having said that, you probably have given it away in most instances by not reading the agreement and privacy policy when you installed all those apps on your iPhone ( not that I read them either). Your “private” information is monetized daily by

Marc: Did you see my last save? People are saying greatest ever.

You did a good deed, but I might have just left a note.  I’d feel like an ass if I broke it, and I’d be out $300.  

I will never, knowingly put myself in an airplane seat for 20 hours.  No way, no how.  I’ve refused tickets for Emirates biz class for 14-15 hours.  Even on a 787 or A350, where the cabin is pressurized to lower cabin altitude and there is more moisture in the air, your body simply isn’t capable of handling long

Now playing

I saw a similar video on here a couple months back with a similar premise. The G wagon vs the Rubicon vs a Land Cruiser in a series of trials. The Rubicon didn’t fare well in that comparison, where the G wagon rocked. To bad I’ll never be able to afford one.
