Did they return them?

If this barge is bobbin’ I’m getting a nobbin’.

My dad had basically this exact car when I was younger (it was probably 15 years old at that point, instead of 35) and it was always a ton of fun. Not fast, but felt great.

The police report and insurance claim should do a fine job of that.

It wasn’t on my list before these pictures, but that later model S-10 is looking pretty damn good. I have a soft spot for Volvo wagons, so the V-70 isn’t bad, although that’s maybe one of the poorer years of Volvos (though by no means bad).

The oil filter one isn’t really wrong, so much as a difference of opinion. Even the manufacturers recommend similar intervals, and they’re usually not one to shy away from extra maintenance money. Honda, as of 2020 at least, still has an interval for just oil, and then oil and filter. I’m guessing they know something…

Fine. Uses brakes and is less fuel efficient, but fine.

Yeah, it’s a good thing it’s not actually a plane, because it doesn’t even carry enough flight time to be remotely safe. Normal planes, it’s considered pretty damn bad if you only have 45 minutes of fuel left, you’re into emergency territory at that point. If you’re flying IFR (instrument rules, most commercial stuff…

$2800 or so for 4 new tires. Yikes. And they probably don’t even last that long. You’ll be lucky to get 28000 miles probably. 10 cents a mile just in the tires.

It wasn’t caused by bad policy or bad procedure, but by a lack of knowledge? The fuck does that even mean (nothing, I know). The policies and procedures were correct, we just didn’t know what the policies or procedures were and we didn’t follow them? Is that somehow better?

Yeah, I don’t really know why concrete breaks our brains, but steel doesn’t. I’m not sure if you’ve picked up a thick piece of steel lately, but it’s also quite dense. Steel is about 3 times as dense as concrete (obviously there’s different types of steel and concrete).

Yeah, ferrocement is definitely a thing people still use to build yachts. Weird people, but people nonetheless.

We bought a new car for my wife summer of ‘20. Much better than the disaster of today. 

A co-worker went to India for her wedding. I think it was basically the entire two weeks. It sounded intense.

The Jeep getting rocked was epic. It just left the whole trailer behind and chilled where it was. Fuck the straps.

My Speed3 had issued with the door sensors. It would be sitting in the driveway in the middle of the night, and suddenly decide that a door was open, so it would set off the alarm. I had to have it replaced because it was driving me nuts, and then the other door started doing it. It wasn’t cheap.

Finding the comment died a long time ago. Getting notified died last week or the week before.

I want it, but that wood is hideous and should be illegal. Plus I think this is maybe the worst looking generation. The original is charming and small and simple, the newer ones are aggressive and fast looking. This generation just looks kind of meh to me, although the coupe is indeed worlds better than the…

I was thinking you’d be lucky to get 110 miles with a few gallons in reserve.

Definitely a flash bang. And I didn’t think the guy crawled away, I thought he was dragged, by whoever threw the flashbang. But that sequence happened quickly, so maybe I missed it.
