I think he got away with it because I don’t think the instructor saw it happen as they were attending several lanes (of newbies that didn’t know what the hell they were doing.) As for the gun, I don’t know what it was, but I suspect he bought something “big and manly” but had never actually fired a gun before in his…

I read an interesting article about an Israeli Head of Security guy that basically said the same thing about American TSA. His airport is literally surrounded by enemies and they teach their staff how to look for body language and misaligned stories. Nobody is getting x-rayed or taking their shoes off. It’s a short…

I took a class where while we were in the range, the guy next to me squeezed off two more rounds into the ceiling after the initial recoil from his first shot.  It was a bit unnerving to be in the stall next to him after that.

I do feel for you guys (and gals) that deal with the car buying public. When I decided to lease a Tacoma, the salesman gave me a piece of paper with a checklist of everything I needed to bring back to finalize the deal. When I returned with everything on the list, he was actually dumbfounded I brought everything on…

I saw one where he hit the turbo boost because he needed to get to some guest star that was in danger. The digital speedometer hit 325 mph! While driving some backroad with several curves.

I used to watch anything that had a car/vehicle as a co-star (Knight Rider, Dukes of Hazzard, The A Team, Magnum P.I., Airwolf, etc.) Recently I’ve seen some retro channel playing Knight Rider and I’ve watched it a couple times. My god it’s just so cheesy and stupid. Most of the time I can’t even get through the whole…

You do realize that men that have awfully similar opinions as you were up in arms about Mad Max: Fury Road being “feminist propaganda.”

I know a lot of car salesmen come on these threads and defend the system. I understand, it’s your livelihood. But the vast majority of new car dealerships are multi-million dollar complexes that span many acres. They aren’t making pocket change per deal. Even if they are making $1,000 profit per deal, how many deals…

For the most part I’ve had very good experiences at dealerships. I’m realistic about the business. Like everyone else, I expect to receive some discount, but I’m not delusional to think I’m going to get 50% off, or even 20%. I understand the dealership needs to make a profit, but I also don’t want to be the guy the…

I’m not one of these people that hate dealerships and think direct sales will save the world, but I can kind of see their point with this explanation you just gave. If I have the means to pay tens of thousands of dollars for a product you sell and that’s not good enough. To curry favor with the dealer, I also have to…

I love when they list off the features of the car like radial tires.  You know you’re stretching for highlights when you have to list the tires.

God those old U-Haul’s were pieces of shit.  I still can’t understand how anyone with a Class C license can go rent one and drive around other traffic.

The classics will always satisfy.

True, I have higher hopes for a development in Europe than here. I guarantee come October Trump will announce a miracle cure that he will totally give everybody after the election if they vote for him and the media will fall for it.

DMV is open again?  We’ve been trying to get an out-of-state vehicle purchase registered since March, but can’t because they are not accepting new appointments and they insist I have to do it all in person.

I think a lot of readers that are rejecting the new article name come down to that it’s awkward to have two competing terms that are pronounced exactly the same. Nice Price or Crack Pipe didn’t rhyme. There’s no need for a new format to rhyme or sound similar. If you do want it to rhyme, how about “Good Deal or Get…

Well, we are following the same path as the Spanish Flu (to include anti-mask groups) and we eventually overcame that. I don’t believe this will be a permanent fixture in our lives, especially when they develop a viable vaccination.

Also the younger generations just watched as the American government just let every small business whither and die while shoveling cash to large corporations. How likely are the next few generations going to take the risk of starting their own small businesses versus running to the safety of employment with large…

I saw a headline that basically said if we could get 80%+ compliance on mask wearing, we’d be done with this in 4 to 6 weeks. And yet, here we are 5 MONTHS later while the majority of the world goes back to normal or semi-normal life because their citizens are empathetic and disciplined.

I’m kind of the same way. Both my wife and I were in the “essential workers” category and not much changed in our lives. We weren’t exactly social people before so going to work, coming home and ordering take out was already our lifestyle. I don’t know anyone personally that has contracted Covid (I’m not trivializing…
