Now were talking, Tom you’ve been sandbagging your best tactics?!

Pretty interesting. I always preferred the Interstate (freeway) system over a turnpike (tollroad).

I think the big news is that Lexus is still selling vehicles with a panel gap you could put your hand through.... seriously, WTF guys!

Ya know, I figured it was something like that....I love when manufacturers are thinking of their customers, safety be damned!

What the hell happened to the steering column here...looks like it's beyond the lowest limit.

It’s not about the actual Volvo product from Chinese factories, I’m sure those will be mostly fine. It’s the fact that the Chinese government is taking all those years of Swedish know-how and will use it in other areas to, to improve their own Chinese brands. 

I might not have made myself clear, my mistake.

Well since you asked, yes...how is that even a question?

While I understand your point, I am not willing to accept that China was the only way Volvo could live on.

I so much want to like Volvo but the significant (exclusive?) Chinese backing, continually makes me question the decision.

Your question is exactly why many modern perfomance vehicles have multiple cats. I remember a Koenigsegg video (but can’t be bothered to find it) where Christian discusses high flow cats, bypass cats and secondary cats... I made all of those terms up but suffice to say, they all have specific purposes.

I think the term ‘blow-out’ means: to get rid of and make room for new stuff. Sort of difficult to ‘get rid of’ ebooks.

I’m not exactly sure what it is about GEVs but they scream cold-war to me....might be the cartoon-ish propaganda artwork that accompanies them or the idea, which seems so outlandish but I always like learning more about them.

The best I can tell the safety chains are attached the the ‘dolly’ that the truck hitch is connected to. The dolly is also managing the air brake system, possibly (hopefully!) rigged to the truck via an electric brake control system. The dolly is also supporting the tongue load of the trailer, so the truck isn’t…

Owner of the keys, she’d need to ask her top assist where they were.

I figured Fancy Kristen was the owner of the extraordinary keys.

They should use this tech to gather social performance and rate people’s ability to do ‘good’....oh wait, China’s probably already perfected that.

I wouldn’t say I ‘missed it’, so much as I went another way....the 911 is sooo, 2019. I’m looking forward to 2020.

J-tree is an awesome park, certainly best enjoyed over a few day camping trip. But, damn that looks like a cold way to travel.

Hey neighbor, I’m not far from SB, we’re just south of SLO!
