The only thing it isn't is the GTD with VW's new engine. What a shame.

On this day in 1942, gasoline rationing began in 17 Eastern states as an attempt to help the American war effort during World War II. By the end of the year, President Franklin D. Roosevelt had ensured that mandatory gasoline rationing was in effect in all 50 states.

The figure includes $4.2 billion from payroll, along with direct and indirect spending, and sales and property tax revenue, according to the analysis by Grant Thornton LLP, a Chicago-based audit, tax and advisory company. The report was released May 12, when the city, a Dallas suburb, approved incentives for the…

Like we've been saying (and many others have been saying, as well), there's a bit of a disconnect between the brands that work extremely well for Fiat Chrysler and the ones that don't… and the ones that don't are the volume car sellers.http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/0...

You'd think you were a Tom Clancy style hero too if you lived in Hawaii, dated a stripper and simultaneously pulled down the pants of the most powerful government on Earth before pulling a thrilling escape to Hong Kong before anyone knew what was happening.

I laughed because the guy buying the parking spot is driving a BMW.

I don't think I could come up with an explanation that Sony if I tried. They inconvenience their customers for literally no reason they can explain, only to later explain months later it was for a completely unrelated product they'd been developing all along that no one is going to use.

Everyone has a fish story.

"(This is) not your grandmother's test track," said Peter Sweatman, director of U-M's Transportation Research Institute. "It's a simulation of dense complex urban vehicle operation. It's designed to test connect and automated vehicles and to develop test procedures that will help us get there faster." The 32-acre…

Yeah, the production limitation is a big one. I'd have put the VTOL Mirage and the Flying Pancake on the list for sure.

This is when any competent, sane accountant would speak up in the investors' board meeting and say "if this game does not make a billion dollars we are screwed."

If a company is too big to fail, it should not exist.

Then later they'll remove the ability to send drawings to your friends citing parental concerns.
