I have heard the same story from the Sikorsky rep in PI at the time. He was certain they could have just flown it out of the river bed before the tide came in but an admiral said no. Tide comes in, fills it up with water, now it weighs twice as much

Bravo!

Okay, look here; if you’re into the same kind of thing as my ten year old daughter (yes, Pokemon, or however the hell you spell it), that’s your business. Just know that I’m judging you for it.

Friendly reminder that the S50B30US and the S50 Euro motor are very different, and that the US-spec car produces 240 horsepower at the crank when new compared to the Euro’s 320. US above, Euro below.

You seem like a guy that knows his shit. Whoops sorry, knows shit*

because a plate of spaghetti isn’t being investigated for sexual assault by the police.

Who? Trudeau?

Well your wife sounds like a dumb bitch. Id make sure your wife knows it also. Good for that individual to call her out and make her feel uncomfortable. Hopefully there were others around when he did it. Obviously not a responsible pet owner. Hope she doesn't breed.

Nope, what your wife did was a bad idea. That guy had every reason to be concerned about your dog, especially considering he had no way to know how long it was in there. Also, cracking the windows really doesn’t help at all and add in how humid it gets in Texas 70F in the shade will kill that 10lb dog pretty quickly.

I would have broken all their windows for good measure

I was completely ready to give the guy credit for going straight off instead of trying to hero a recovery out of that. Then he got out of the car.

I’m just going to be sitting here in the comments section, reading. Don’t mind me.

And the Jeep transmission problem claims yet another life.

oh, they already make one... we just don’t get it : (

BRONCO!!

I was 17 in 1997, out cruising in my stock 1985 Iroc (it was what I could afford okay!). I loved my Iroc and had so much fun in that car during high school, some things car related, some things not. ;)

I am always curious when people comment on the handling of a pick-up or a large SUV, and even more so on those styles fromthe 90's and before. Of course it isn’t a silky smooth ride. It’s not a sedan- its a 4x4. Of course the brakes are mediocre at best- it’s a GM truck. But the engine will last a life time; the…

Fix those heater bypass elbows and the inevitable intake gasket and you've got possibly the most reliable American engine of the OBD2 era.

Fresh pads, rotors, stainless steel brake lines and new fluid would probably make a world of difference.
