That’s an interesting take, hadn’t thought about that. But, to be fair, most of the part of California that has to worry about snow isn’t going to need an 8 hp snow blower from what I’ve heard about the snow fall they get. You’re either ‘must have plow’ or ‘have plow, need machine mounted snow thrower’ territory up

Because you won’t... you just fix it and let your inner Jalop out... the wife was not pleased when she came back from a trip and this was in the back yard. Tiny bumper sticker on the back got made on a label maker and read “Ass, Gas or Grass... Nobody Rides For Free”. Not sure why that was frowned upon. Started life

Well, yeah, true, but you can use a small electric ride on for small lawns. They weren’t really an option when I got my mower a few years back, but now they’re definitely better. For smaller things like weed wacker, blower, hedge trimmer, etc. I’ve stuck with Ryobi tools since I can swap a battery from my drill or saw

Until you accidentally activate it and it won’t shut the fuck up.  “I didn’t understand that last command...” All I did was attempt to adjust the rear view mirror and touched the button... ugh...

Yeah, hard to believe.  I live in CT and the worst offenders seem to have “Antique Vehicle” tags... I just want to burn them right there.

Yeah, these were extremely shitty cars.  Any time I see one still on the road I want to crush it or just light it on fire.

Hell yes.  I had one and it was uncomfortable, rattled fucking everywhere and some how sucked gasoline like it should have had 3 times the power it did have.  I don’t know how the engineering division made a motor so inefficient...

It’s obviously for people who LOVED the PT Cruiser but have bumper stickers on their Chevy that read, “I’d rather PUSH a CHEVY than drive MOPAR”.

A custom shop creation can run pretty high, but it’s still a Fender. The really pricey stuff comes from inlay work and seriously customized stuff, not by checking a box for some options.  I have a specialist I see from time to time and he gave his wife a Gibson custom shop guitar that had customized multi color

Sure, you wouldn’t make a block of it from tungsten.  But let’s say it was found that tungsten alloyed bearings lasted 50% longer and added 5 kg to the total weight of the car.  The team would figure out where they could shave a couple of kg off the car and deal with the additional weight knowing that they could run

That is an extremely selfish suggestion you have made and I second the motion.

That gets a bit slippery since any driver that makes contact with another car always blames the other driver for causing the collision.  But I totally get the idea and I can’t see a driver deciding they need more power in the next few races deciding to intentionally roll the dice and hit a wall at 50G.

Not always.  I work for a company that makes stuff out of a metal that’s definitely not light and I’ve seen blueprints for a parts request from a team on the grid.  None of us know what the hell it could possibly be used for or how many they need so I can’t even suggest what the hell it was for. But I know exactly

Of course he’s joking, but Tungsten is known to be pretty good for longevity. Heavy, yes. Expensive, for something like a motor, holy hat is it expensive. But I’m guessing that there are reasons that no one in F1 has experimented with using it for components yet. No idea why, but metallurgy ain’t my thing.

I still want one... oh that would be fun, especially with an actual supercharger in it.

Easy, Isuzu Trooper... he drove it there!

No need to bury anything, just drop the suspension.  Put everything on adjustable suspension and you can’t get under the car. 

I’m really hoping HAM wins it all again this year and decides to retire here in the US (he seems to love it here). Maybe he’ll even spend some time learning how to drive on an oval and dip his toe into NASCAR. Lewis has really been pushing more for change as he’s racked up the wins so it’s definitely a possibility,

True, but he’ll get non-white people out to vote and there are probably plenty of folks who thought MTG was kinda crazy and now look back and think they might have voted differently had there been someone like this guy.  I don’t even need to hear him speak... just looking at him you can tell he’s not 7 flavors of

Like those Buick commercials, “Which one?”
