It's ok. I have a Jetta. I wish my wife had a girlfriend.

You can just take a cue from Top Gear and say "Cocks"

Carbon fiber is usually pointless, but isn't a carbon fiber WRAP just idiotic? Why, why, why?

Audi RS4 Avant. Fast. Practical. Quatro. What else do you need?

I'm a lifelong The Simpsons fan and I've always thought that the quote was "sea bell", as in the reference to the sea bell in The Birds. I stand corrected. My whole world has been shaken to the core. Now I don't know what to think.

Was this the interceptor that used liquid or solid stage rockets to get it up to altitude to take on allied bombers, then was supposed to glide back for landing?

How about the Harrier? While it's been a very successful fighter, it was designed and built before the days of fly-by-wire, meaning the pilots are making all the direction inputs straight to hydraulically controlled flight surfaces and exhausts. I have a friend who flies the harrier for the US Marines and he describes…

Supporting a friend's decision to build/rebuild/modify/etc a car should invoke the same logic as supporting your friend's decision regarding girlfriends/boyfriends/spouses/pets/etc. If it makes them happy, then by all means go for it.

Though they were never built at scale, the Allies during WWII toyed with the idea of making aircraft carriers, cargo ships and troop transports out of Pykrete (a mixture of wood pulp/binder and ice). The idea was that the ships could be built on a massive scale, were easier and cheaper than building out of steel, and…

KJU is 29 years old, did not serve as a pseudo-apprentice for decades like his father did to KJS and has no military training or experience, unlike his father and KJS. KJU is absolutely aware of the inferiority if his military compared to either SK or SK's allies. He is attempting to bolster his military credentials…

My wife's 2005 Jeep Liberty had a recall on the rear lower control arm for "excessive corrosion, possibly leading to failure."
