You’re assuming the bolts were even on there in the first place. Given Boeing’s (and their subcontractor) track record of late, they might not have been on there. 

If finger tight is good enough for me then is should be good enough for the picky buggers at the FAA.

FAA: Do you feel this aircraft is safe for interstate travel?

Dangling my legs and jumping out of a plane at 12,000 feet was one of the scariest things I’ve ever done. I don’t think I would’ve had the guts to do it myself - thank goodness for tandem instructors who do it every day.

Launching cars through the air with a huge trebuchet could only ever be fun

Oh, believe me, there are plenty of videos of people seeing how much forced induction these will take as well.

Great, a fat heavy 7.3L anchor with massive torque up front in a rear wheel drive car. What could go wrong? Another reason to skip Cars and Coffee.

I’ve had the 3.5 EB, the 2.7 EB and the 7.3 gasser. I’ve driven the 5.0. The 3.5 was, by far and away, the most fun. In fact, it’s the most fun I’ve ever had in a pickup. I miss that truck in the worst way. The 7.3 was surprisingly underwhelming, definitely a brute for doing truck things but not much of a tire-melter.

Now playing

Some guy on youtube did this. Long aimless video, but general vibe was that it really liked to break its tires loose, but didn’t make it faster.

The Godzilla has much more torque tho’. The 5.0 liter’s hp rating is at 7000 rpm and the 7.3 liter’s hp rating is at 5500 rpm. Horsepower is basically just torque times engine speed.

Are the phones Apple? Android? Waste no tragedy, advertising opportunity for durability. 

Great marketing opportunity for whoever made the case on that phone.

It’s called traction control. It works for braking too.

Peter Stormare is a treasure

Midsize today are the size of a 90's 1/2 ton (seriously, the current Ranger is a 95 F-150 in dimensions)

Traffic might run at an average of 80 in TX, but since I’ve moved to the DFW I’ve noticed that the biggest issue with TX is the speed differentials between lanes. It’s like nowhere I’ve ever seen before.

fine, subhed, lol feel better now?

Freestyle shapes, got it.

yes complete factual accuracy is needed to make fun of that fucking turd of course.

From the side, it’s an irregular pentagon. /pendantic
