Or, you know... M1A1 Tanks.

This article is painting a REALLY rosy picture of the current administration's coalition in this fight...
Could you get Jeff Gordon to give you a ride in the back of it, and let us know how it feels vs the back of that Crown Vic?
You revived a six-month old thread to say this? Police are over-reaching here because they got a free armored vehicle? Sheesh.
Because electricity in the US is most often produced via burning coal. MPG is somewhat misleading if you spent the first 12 miles rolling coal from 8 hours worth of 1-2kW/h use. Gasoline is a far more efficient energy transfer mechanism than batteries or even coal itself.
Wow... they're even uglier now. I've gotta say, I must just be 1000% outside their target demographic. Nothing, not one thing appeals to me about this vehicle.
She's implying male nature is to want to rape. Basically an obvious troll who just has interest going around spewing vitriol about men. If someone is going to come out and say something as preposterous as "males need to be taught this, since it's not inherent" - you should know better than to even bother replying.
Oh it's DEFINITELY fast. That was my point... 10's in the quarter are usually the sole provenance of ridiculously fast road cars. Someone hopping into a dragster with that kind of speed and twitchy handling with little experience is legitimately impressive.
My favorite part of this is having an ally creating a credible competitor to US high-end fighters. US defense contractors arguably have overly inflated their prices. Maybe the USAF will consider this fighter instead of domestically built ones in the future if it ends up being half the cost... Might make Lockheed /…
Because the cops saw him being a jerk. And cops don't like jerks. They love jerks, as that means they can write them all the tickets in the world and never feel bad about a thing.
Yeah... I was wondering if I was the only one not impressed by this in the least. I've had to do faster emergency lane changes in a bus to avoid killing someone (and again... IN A BUS). That car could see that truck coming from literally about 1000ft away.
my favorite part is her trying to damage the tires with it.
Helicopters are expensive. It's unlikely they had one idling on-scene for the event. If the helicopter wasn't already patrolling somewhere nearby, they take a decent amount of time to roll out of their hangar, do pre-flights, and get going. 45 min sounds reasonable all things considered.
along with a good portion of the flesh on that arm.
So... one would guess the purpose of the sign would be to warn drivers to slow down to ice-appropriate speeds before the bridge, yeah?
Umm... it's literally just about the hardest thing humanity has ever done. 2 disasters in 135 flights is pretty great when you look at the death rates in 60's and 70's Formula 1, which only represented the pinnacle of automotive engineering and racing.
"The US did not carpet bomb Baghdad with B-52s."
Yeah... not even mentioning the fact that it would've been way easier and cheaper to carpet bomb Iraq than to bother actually invading.
Yeah, I have only been followed like this once in my life, and I drove the wheels off what I was driving to get away on back roads. Dude followed me no matter what random direction I went, so I assumed it could only be for reasons of harm. Never was that scared for my safety in my life. That, however was at 2AM.
