What are 3 cars with tragically bad build quality Alex?

Personally, I’d vote for the lvo or the uck. 

I hate the term ‘auto-pilot’. Its just asking for trouble. I’m amazed this hasn’t been investigated more times in the litigation friendly US. I get that it sounds cool and cool-pronouncements are Elon’s thing, but it would have been just as cool and a lot more intuitive to it’s capabilities to have called it co-pilot.

I ride year-round in the Seattle area. The only thing that’s a no-go is snow or ice on the road, which isn’t all that common. Usually when it gets really cold (for Seattle) the air dries out so the roads are dry as well. I’ve ridden plenty of mornings down to 20 degrees or so. Heated grips and layers gets me by, but…

I didn’t use the seat coolers in my in-law’s previous vehicle because I didn’t want to get too used to them. I don’t have seat cooler money, unless I’m buying a car the mob is frantically trying to get rid of.

Yup, and it’s led to a lot fewer serious encounters when you know that the other person WILL do the absolutely worst and most idiotic thing they could possibly do in traffic. That person turning left in the intersection WILL do it in front of you. The SUV with the lady texting and 3.5 screaming kids and a large dog…

I do not at all agree with that. I cannot think of any other administration in history where everyday corruption has become the norm.

I don’t think you understand. The question is if you’ve changed your habits since the pandemic began.

Not to mention a fair number of people out of work.

This. I know a lot of people in large companies (including me) and very few are back in the office yet. Several are planning on having employees work from home for the foreseeable future.

I’m a daily rider (Valkyrie), but I was out running errands with a buddy about a month ago in a car and he remarked that some squid (wearing shorts and tennis shoes on an RR, of course) on a sportbike didn’t even have tail lights. He had them, but I pointed out that they were shitty, dim LEDs that were in a thin line…

Good gear saves lives.

The van driver should have pulled over on his own Accord. Now he’ll going to get a Civic lesson on hit and runs. Hopefully the punishment Fits the crime and he goes on an Odyssey to his local penitentiary.

TWO MILES, he dragged that CBR for TWO MILES

It’s the left turn signal as he makes his way to the shoulder/exit on the right that really makes the video for me .

How many wooden sailing ships have boilers?

I don’t think that is an issue. The US Navy already uses the 737 (P-8 anti-submarine patrol aircraft) and the US Air Force will be using the 767 (KC-46). The US Air Force has been using the 707-derivative (KC-135) for decades.

General Electric is trying to convince the Air Force and congressional bean counters that its re-engining program could extend the lifespan of the B-52 platform more than seventy years into the future.

And people say it was unrealistic for the Millennium Falcon for be around for 90 years. Once you have a platform that works...
