Yeah, that was my bad. I went straight to video and assumed it was a traffic stop based on it.

Didn’t know that. I shouldn’t have assumed.

Aiming for the leg is not a valid tactic at any police agency in the US.

Absolutely no reason? Really?

ISIS membership means watching a few YouTube videos and sending a pre-attack tweet.

Theoretically, would the fans even need to be powered? Obviously you'd lose your downforce at 0mph thing, but it seems like a non-powered fan could still work like a gyrocopter vs a plane.

I want to want an xterra but the 2nd gen is too big / chubby looking, and the first is soooooo slow.

But once the entire market consists of ‘rugged’ soccer-mom crossovers of various size, companies are going to have to work harder to out-rugged each other (harder than adding ever-bigger fender flares). We saw it with the FJ cruiser, and I’m sure we’ll eventually see it again.

I don’t mind under-mounted, but it seems like moving an undermount to the rear could free up a sizable storage space under the floor.

Not with those dumb covers on them.

Honestly, I think it’s because designers / engineers just take the hatch style rear opening as a given. Probably because of some dipshit marketers who have been focus-grouping at literal shopping malls.

Looking back, it’s kind of surprising they made something so bare-bones that recently.

I was on team hammer as soon as I saw the t-shirt / chest protector combo.

It might be that they realized their sourcing approach was incompatible with making cars...

The Japanese had a reputation for being bad tourists? I wasn’t traveling then so I wouldn’t know but it seems hard to believe. Oblivious and tightly-bunched, sure. But not shoving and spitting and yelling.

The dip stuff is cool because the stakes are so much lower than permanent paint. All the crazy pearlescent hologram stuff used to be tribal knowledge. That’s changing as the market opens up to people without neck tattoos.

These cars exist because people want coupes but are horrified at the prospect of having to explain ingress to one of their coworkers during a chipotle run.

And enjoy a positively scorching 5.7s 0-60 time.

Fuck that.

No, prison life would not have been safer for Brock. Prison would have meant sex-slavery and suicide, or protective solitary.
