...Can I get a PDF of this to print up and put on my wall?

If you can’t operate all three pedals with your two feet then you should not be racing.

I had a FAR greater chance at stopping by locking up the rear wheels.

It’s because *in best Mr. Regular voice* HNNNGH MY PENIS RRRGH I HATE INTELLECTUALISM AAAGH PRIUSESESES ARE FOR HOMOS *real fart*

I don’t get the coal roller thing. Even when I stomp on the throttle, the exhaust on my truck is clean. The more powerful diesels, i.e. freight locomotives (and semis in good running order), seem to run clean despite having a massive engine running under a heavy load.

Great points, ConLawHero. There is no doubt that renting can be better, especially for short time horizons and/or certain financial situations — everyone should run the numbers for his or her own situation. But overall I think you clearly have a better understanding of this subject and am glad you added…

Renters don’t pay property taxes. Renters don’t pay for homeowner’s insurance (which is considerably more expensive than renter’s insurance). Renters don’t pay for repairs.

It seems you’ve oversimplified your analysis. Let’s take that same example of $1,500 in mortgage and $1,500 in rent.

The saying “torque wins races” really needs to die.

“In the past, transmissions were things you could count on, but that’s no longer true,”

Real luxury car, what with the glass.

All he needs is a spray bottle and a dirty squeegee to complete the look.

Everything wrong with Torch’s pants in one picture.

*sigh* I have been beaten!

For the current state of 3D printing, it’s viable for any part that needs the structural integrity of polystyrene, the fit and finish of Stilton and you’re willing to make ten copies of, while you fix glitches in the model that turn each one into a surrealist nightmare.

No. 3D printing leaves distinct layers of material and every one of those layers becomes a possible failure point. Vibration and impact will slowly cause those bonded layers to fatigue and fail and the part will leak, causing VW more headache. Plus, the layers will have to be oriented to keep the flow stable,…

Visions of the future aside, it’s a terrible idea. If you were to mold this part conventionally, you’re looking at a $20k-$75k in tooling costs, and $0.25-$5.00 per part costs, with a cycle time of well under a minute (the trade off will be at how many parts the tool produces at a time, the more parts, the more…

My uncle wanted a half ton with a plow. The big 3 all said no you need a 3/4 ton and if you put a plow on our 1/2 ton you will void the warranty. Toyota said sure put a plow on it we won’t void anything. He loves his Tundra.
