The story of your friend? I don't feel bad in the slightest. Guess what, actions have consequences. Mistakes are nothing more than poorly chosen actions, and they still have consequences. Oh, and I don't consider that an accident. That's an incident.

You say flood damage, I say full service underbody wash.

Yes, and I loved it. I used the Bulli because it seems like less of a "concept" and more like a real, actual van that a company could (should) make.

VW has the power to make minivans cool again...

I always thought a Jeep pick-up would be a great small, off-road oriented pick-up competitor to things like the Tacoma, Frontier and the soon-to-be released Colorado/Canyon. Now when can I have it?

The best part was that you could have gotten it in brown, AWD, and stick-shift. No word on a diesel though.

I'm guessing it is more anti-UAW than it is anti-union.

MS said the issues is a false positive. It is falsely reading that the temp is too high. Are you too dense to realize this? It doesn't actually need to heat up for this to happen. The issue isn't the heat, it's the false positives.

What's wrong with cans? They don't let any light in which is far better. Besides, you beer was most likely brewed in a giant can (or a couple of them) any ways. The idea that bottles are better is just stupid.

But how does the total frontal area compare to other vehicles in the market segment? Drag coefficient is great, but total drag also includes frontal area.

But a howitzer and mortar don't rely on a standard ballistic trajectory.

It's going to take more than a degree or two.

Buy the seat infront of you then. Your height shouldn't have anything to do with my ability to be comfortable, especially when using a standard feature on the plane. Fat people have to buy two seats, why not have tall people buy two if they are going to bitch if I want to recline.

Wasn't it these guys that said something about their grandfather riding a camel, they themselves drive a Mercedes, their kids drive Mercedes, their grandkids will drive Mercedes, but their grandkids' kids will ride a camel?

What the hell is going on in Spain?

Looks very Windows Phone metro inspired, but with more pastels.

I like letter or number combinations when they actually mean something. The Saab 900 was smaller than the Saab 9000. The Mercedes 200E was an E-Class with a 2.0 liter engine while the 300E had a 3.0 liter engine, and the C-Class was smaller than the E-Class with the S-Class being the biggest. Now, almost nothing…

It's hard to tell, but the taillights look very Volvo-esque from what I can see of them. The greenhouse looks like a combination of a first gen Touareg combined with the recently replaced X5.
