Actually a lot of people, myself included, swap YJ body Tubs to replace badly rusted CJ-7 tubs. The only difference is one of two of the body mounts have to be moved a bit and the YJ tub is galvanized so less prone to rust, but otherwise the stampings are identical

I think the blame here needs to be dumped on Race Control, they should have taken decisive action and immediately told Verstrappen to let Vettel by or given him a drive through penalty or whatever. It just was shit luck that Riccardo was bearing down on him so quickly.

I like you, you’re a battery half-full type of guy aren’t you

Oh he definitely gunned it to block to the BMW, I would have done the exact same thing. Especially since the BMW was honking and being a general ass-hat leading up to the shake & bake

This one I shot at Cars & Coffee here in Cincinnati I always come back to. The light, the background, the dude, the colors, and especially the car. I just love it.

I agree with the sentiment, but have you seen the trunk in these things? it makes the overhead bins on an MD-80 (or any region airliner) look cavernous.

I picked up the book from an airport bookstore on my way home for the holidays because the title combined with the dog on the cover hit two things I really love. It was such a fantastic read that I finished it partway through my return flight.

Ah makes sense, I figured there was some other agreement in place.

3rd Gear: I thought the Chicken tax discouraged trucks from being imported? So how does Toyota manage to build Tacomas in Mexico and bring them to the states? Is there a loophole for Mexico? or are they just paying it?

I like where your heads at

if you really really want to waste time on it, you can also account for the slight variation in the acceleration due to gravity that occurs with altitude.

You’re 100% right. I should have phrased that better. I don’t mean people should be actually afraid while driving to the point of causing erratic behavior as you point out. The point is not so much to have fear per-say but more to have to respect and fully comprehend the situation. A good example is what is adopted by…

Not sure how easy it would be to swap into a CJ-2A, but I swapped a T-18 into my old CJ-7 and the granny-gear is super nice to have when off-roading. Combined with the Dana 300 Tcase with a twin-stick and it was a sweet setup!

Some people will see your survey results and think that its further proof that #millenials are part of an “pussy generation” or whatever. I think its actually a good thing. They aren’t fucking stupid. They should be afraid of driving. The problem is that the vast majority of drivers don’t respect what you point out,…

No kidding, The Diesel should be available in a stripped down version!

Neutral: What New Car Do You Want To Buy Right Now?

Oh so its cool to let a bus filter through traffic, but when I do the same on my motorcycle people freak out and respond as if I’ve kicked a small, defenseless woodland creature

I’ve followed the TT for many years now and with every year that passes I find myself even more dumbfounded by the event. You really hit the nail on the head with your description.

goddamn why didn’t I think of that!?

Because heel-toe downshift!
