It’s not just concussions, they’re learning that repeated sub-concussion impacts also add up to cumulative damage over time. Made me glad I stopped martial arts, but I wonder if my migraines aren’t possibly related to that time (and biking and anything else that caused me to hit my head).

There are well over 1000 car designers at any time. How many do you know by name? How many are current? One doesn’t have to be a designer, just someone with an IQ over that of a small rodent, to see how stupid this idea is. You can suck Muskrat’s dick all you want, but you’re never going to get so much as a…

I like the interior. Exterior is just more unoriginal mining and bastardizing of a better old design. Where is the damn originality? Or at least match the spirit of the original in purity of line, proportion, and elegance with a bit of function thrown in (vents)—details used not to draw your eyes away from the form as…

But that cd is terrible! Best I could find for the original car is an estimated .34. I don’t know how accurate that is, but it’s lower than the new one and I’m sure it has a smaller frontal area (the original is tiny). Plus it says that’s before aero. I don’t know what that means, but usually that would be used in…

Usually aero means downforce aids, which would mean more drag. The Alfa is worse than a Testarossa and all that to look like one of those youtuber hack designers took their wretched e-pens to the original and added some Pep Boys Wrangler grille attitude.

There’s one around me in North Andover. Don’t know if it’s the same one, but this one is an older bald guy, drives like an asshole, so he seems to possess little sense of self preservation. I think it’s dark gray. Funny that I can’t recall the color! If it’s him, I’m surprised someone rode with him.

The other part here is that it is political suicide to raise the gas taxes, which should have likely been done years ago. By hitting EVs at double the average annual gas tax people pay, they’re actually hitting them at something closer to what the actual gas tax should be, but can’t raise them to. On top of that—at…

How would they move? Typical value I found of a house there from 2021 is $144k, 49th out of the 50 states (WV lowest) and median income is 50th at under $46k. If they even have paid-off property to sell, on average, it won’t get them to a much better place to live, though it would get them a downpayment and they’d…

You want the 2.0 N/A focus 5MT. Even DI only, it’s no worries. I went over 200k miles on mine and it was Corolla reputation reliable. Got totaled. 1.0 EB is a totally different (junk) engine—more expensive, not powerful, and not much better mileage, but I don’t think they sold many of them, anyway. Even my Focus ST…

Dump truck drivers are universally the worst drivers on the road, as it has been at least as long as I’ve been driving, which is 30 years and close to 1 million miles. They must only hire the most degenerate fucktards for the job. They’re either driving like they’re a teenager in a sports car/broke person in an Altima…

You don’t drive a Kia Rio off road or on a racetrack. There’s nothing wrong with your kayak if you just want to float around a bit in calm water, maybe do some light fishing, but like with cars, bikes or anything else, performance, capability, and quality costs money. You want to go on the ocean? It will not be a good…

You can build more boat for that price or less with marine ply and fiberglass. Even better, you can often find them already built by someone for near budget kayak prices, definitely budget if you don’t mind a little repair and paint work. My 17' CLC Charles something or other (it’s discontinued, but the Chesapeake LT…

Utility trailer and modify it to suit. That’s what I’m using for my 17' wood boats and bikes (if I need to move several of each at once). It can easily be designed to have vertically adjustable crossbars so that the bikes can roll on underneath and the kayaks will still be lower than even a wagon or the boats can be ke…

I remember when unpainted plastic bumpers were the sign you bought the stripped model almost nobody else was too cheap to buy, but now it’s a design feature.

There’s no real hotrodding the BRAT’s EA engine—it’s single port OHV head with 3 main bearings. I know nobody cares. Wrote it anyway.

So, this big ugly thing has less cargo space than my old Mk3 Focus ST, the one where the full size spare ate some of the space via raised floor vs the less performance oriented model. I hope there’s at least more rear seat room in exchange.

He seems like a typical Russian, so he’s probably doing this so he can tell himself and the world that he’s a victim who’s being unfairly cheated out of his rightful F1 seat and not face that he’s just a POS who sucks.

This makes sense when comparing a higher end vehicle for a longer loan period to a low end one that can accomplish the same job at the same monthly payment for a shorter term, but doesn’t work when someone is already at the low end of the market, particularly the current market where rates would be higher for a used…

I don’t understand the hostility to this simple and logical suggestion, the usefulness of such a class illustrated by all the people in financial trouble, many of which with good incomes. Sure, a lot of them are dummies who make poor decisions and will continue to do so, but plenty of people don’t fully understand the…

I can’t imagine the kind of eunuch who would find that eye tracking nag tech desirable. I assume it has to be shut off every time it’s driven? That’s enough to nope me out.
