Jason, there’s no need to go nuts over this. I know we’d all be screwed without the various types of fasteners in our cars, but this was hardly a riveting post. (Although, I will say that photo of the Spyker shows they really know how to nail an interior.) I realize you’re probably just trying to hit your quota so you…

Here’s one problem: That cylinder has a check-valve that prevents, among other things, cavitation of the cylinder. Every time it hits a bump the check-valve allows fluid in. There is also an over-pressure relief valve, but the load on the cylinder has to be higher than typical loading to cause fluid to leave. So every…
Not sure why they’re tearing it down, now that the road is closed just hit it with a truck going the other direction
With some designs, the deck is left to sit without bolts (sometimes each end of the deck rests in a kind of cradle), making it more tolerant of vibration and thermal expansion &c.

Well, two things to address at the crash site are 1) automotive fluids from the truck and 2) not disturbing the natural ecosystem of the lake.
This is basically where modern truck design is headed.
Doctors should worry about the hysterical COVID people after they do something about the hysterical people that are worried about:
He’s an idiot’s idea of what a good debater is.
Um, no. Facebook silences conservatives.
Not many actors can just show up in a season finale as a previously unknown character, and just monologue for a majority of their time, and have it be captivating. I thought Jonathan Major was very good in Lovecraft Country, but his ability to carry the material here deeply impressed me. And everything he did from the…

1mm thick paper is not “thin paper,” JFYI lol.. that is INCREDIBLY thick paper. thats like four index cards stacked on top of eachother.
I don’t believe it is possible for a tank truck to hold 14,000 gallons worth of fuel, and I bet the number is closer to 14,000 lbs of fuel. Trucks on US Highways are limited to 80,000 pounds GROSS weight which includes the weight of the truck and trailer in that figure. 14,000 gallons at approximately 6.7 lbs/gallon…
so they release it into a local waterway or flush it down the toilet.
Just releasing pet goldfish is just part of the problem. They are also sold as bait fish. Which can get off of hooks, or all that are left at the end of the day, get dumped into the lake by the fisherman.
Some tankers, but not all tankers, are segmented which allows for delivering multiple grades of unleaded + diesel. My grandpa designed trailers for a living and I know entirely too much about these things for someone who needs to know absolutely nothing about them.
Literally nobody knows how much a kilowatt of force is. Deal with it.
Me too, Elon, but I imagine I could tolerate it a lot more for millions of dollars in annual compensation.
