OK I wasn’t going to comment but then I saw you saying Lincoln is supposed to compete with Bentley and Rolls? Who the fuck told you that? Lincoln is trying to compete with Lexus, Infiniti, Acura, and maybe Mercedes-Benz in select offerings. Caddy tried to run with the Germans with RWD based platforms, Lincoln elected…

I stub my toe and yell out all kinds of curse words. She got hit by a car and made zero FCC violations. Sincerely impressive.

So I’ve had some seriously stuck on ones, not to this level, but stuck good. If it starts to crush, I don’t let off or switch tactics, I just keep twisting with the oil filter band wrench in hopes that the sides structure may crumple, but still be strong enough to turn the filter with.

Not hating, typos happen, but heads up on that headline...

Zero mention of any Forza games? I’m shocked. I love the traditional Forza and Forza Horizon. I love that they were smart enough to capture both sim and arcade racing.

It says in the article that the thief ran, so therefore they have no one else to bill. sounds like he got screwed by crappy insurance.

I’m gonna just say if you really need a new generator and you live in California you can just....drive to Nevada? Arizona? Oregon? Whichever happens to be closest. The more demand and desire for better batteries and battery banks the cheaper all the tech will become to make all this stuff affordable.

I’m with you on this one, past the mountie hat, he doesn’t have a denim suit on and he doesn’t even have a bottle of maple syrup with him. Not even a maple leaf insight! 

Certainly better than the modern pig snouts, but I have always disliked the kidney beans and this grille always seemed like the most forced usage of it out of all BMW’s in all of history.

well done, I appreciate you taking it to the next level.

Here I fixed the old one for you.

Especially giving it is on an old Mercedes-Benz platform

Surprised the Cooper Discovererererererer hasn’t been brought up yet.

I wish I had saw this question go up, the real answer is “Car Paint Namer”. I don’t know who does it, but I want that job. Just sit around and think of things like Vista Blue and Arizona Gold. Tons of them don’t even make sense. That green color on the Kia Soul for a long time was just called “Alien”

lol, depends on what consumer you’re talking to. brand recognition is a real thing with real power.

give yourself more credit than a foggy morning thought, what a beautiful analogy of candies lol. In all seriousness, I think it could end up as important as maybe the brand of tires or the branded stereo equipment in a car. “Our’s comes with Goodyear tires!” could transition to “Our’s comes with a Samsung battery!”

Why in the hell would fleet companies line up to order EV trucks/vans from Ford yet? They need to see what the range capabilities are when they are loaded down with payload and trailers. If it can barely crack 50 miles with a heavy load behind it, it’s entirely possible it’s useless to plenty of fleets. I’m not saying…

you get yearly raises in your field? Must be nice.

I guess I’ll get started on that home-made EMP defense system....you know, just in case.

The best professor I ever had made us do a cover label for this as if it was an album. What a wonderful design assignment that was.
