In conjunction with something that isn’t FWD.

And is also not an ultralight.

That FWD is any good in the snow. No thanks. I like not losing my steering every time I break traction. AWD > RWD > WALKING > FWD

That’s not an ultralight; that’s a Sonex experimental (LSA). Hangar mate has one as well and ended up landing it on a road here. Turns out the electrical system controls the engine! He lost electrical, and lost power. For comparison, my plane (Beechcraft) flies just fine with no electric.

I’d love to spend a July weekend in this bad boy, fucking sweating all over and what-not.

Good point... all of their cars are boring to look at, drive, etc but tame styling. This thing is an appliance that’s also ugly to look at.

I honestly thought it was intended as a joke at first. Looks terrible and like it’d be bad at everything, and super fucking embarrassing to drive, be seen in, be nearby, have in your driveway, etc. 

1991 Isuzu Rodeo. First car. Sheet metal was just super flimsy. Saved me in the rollover I had though. Best thing that could have happened to that truck, but I did love it, as shitty as it was. Fun fact: Paid $10,000 in 1994 for it. Current car is NC Miata: $9,700 three years ago... and it had fewer miles!!!

(Plus the

I’m fat and can’t afford a Rivian, so I stopped at the Oreo discussion. That’s relatable. Honestly, I really preferred the OG, Hydrox™. It sounds like a way to get soap scum out of your shower, but doesn’t taste exactly that way.

Buying a used car without first test driving it is a huge “nah” from me. I’ve seen people buy cars from here, and the return process is easy, but why set yourself up to need that?

Yes, BMW is now producing two versions of the Z4. A major automaker. I’d have been happy with a new Supra, but that’s not what we have.

But it isn’t back. They gave us a BMW with sheet metal changes. That’s not a Toyota. If it’s not a Toyota, it’s not a Supra. It’s a Z4. It’s not even the right size. It has two seats. I won’t even mention the shit transmission. Was it made in a Toyota factory? It wasn’t? Then it isn’t back at all. I’m sure if you’re

Paid $9,700 for a 2007 Miata GT manual (soft top) in October 2018. It now has a hair under 80k, and is still in good shape. I found one in TX with no rust, so it was a good starting point... Wow... According to Autotrader, I can sell for 13 - 14k right now... after three years and 30,000 miles. 

I’ve not once had to jerk a guy off to drive my Miata. You can’t prove it.

Replaced a G35x on all seasons with an NC Miata with winter tires. In terms of being able to accelerate in snow (deep and shallow), they’re pretty much on par. Perhaps slight advantage to the Miata since I can just take off in second or third. However, stopping, turning, and everything else is *far* better in the

So you’re telling me the left lane is for passing only, correctly cite that many states (my own included) have this on the books as law, but I’m to consider this a myth? It’s law here. You get ticketed for it.

Going back to my first sentence: There’s no relationship to horsepower and being a sports car. 

This one is huge. Even using the system we have in the U.S., then going to Mexico and filling out forms, it’s so so much more sensible going dd/mm/yyyy.  

I mean we use the metric system in the U.S. We were taught it in basic K-12 and I’m old as hell. Wouldn’t mind seeing it replace what England gave us one day.

So exactly like the windows in my 14 year-old Mazda?
