Just buy a rebuilt one from that place in texas. If you google “rebuilt bmw driveshaft” they come up. Pretty reasonably priced considering. They come with a new carrier bearing too.

Any change we’ll ever see more motorcycle coverage? New models, indistry news, and most importantly, RACING. MotoGP’s opening weekend is this weekend and there are some pretty big things happening in WSBK. Seems we only get to hear about expensive electric bikes and how much Harley sucks on here.

Good call on the hearing protection. Angle grinders are deafening. Literally.

First, if a comic book movie isn’t fun you’re taking yourself too seriously. Second, a movie can be both flashy and gritty. There is clear contrast throughout most of them them. Some things are flashy, some are dark. Boom. Combo.

It’s assholes like you that ruin the fun of the DC movies. DC hears overly critical and negative remarks from people like you and think they are doing something wrong. They aren’t. They’re making comic book movies. They’re fun and flashy and gritty. You want a perfectly coherent story? Go watch some indy movies and…

Will it get upset if I call it a Jag-war.

I think it only makes sense if you are solely dependent on solar power for your home. If your house battery bank is getting low you draw from the car and it can just charge itself up again when you drive it.

SHOW ME WHAT YOU GOT. Oh... A buick, eh? Never mind. DISQUALIFIED.

Maybe, but I find that unlikely with the global nature of car manufacturing. At most, a small change to the tuning or exhaust system would be needed. The small nature of their engines doesn’t make them inherently unable to meet our emissions laws. Manufacturers don’t want to do it because they don’t want to be the…

Soooooo why can’t we bring the E.U. gasoline engine technology here? The proportion of their fleet that is diesel is irrelevant. They have more efficient gasoline engines, the technology of which could be applied to U.S. vehicles. They don’t do it simply because no one wants to be the first one to make a car slower…

Demand is irrelevant. Demand only considers our cheap gas and 0-60 times. Environmental regulation isn’t concerned with how fast you want to go. Only that there are feasible options (there are, as stated above) and that there is less pollution. Saying people simply don’t like less powerful engines is not a good…

This isn’t the 80s. Large corporations build things to work everywhere now. The engines likely don’t meet U.S. emissions standards because they haven’t been tested under U.S. procedure. Regardless, they have the technology to make cars more efficient and it’s likely easy for them to tweek the tuning for the U.S. as…

I don’t think that credit applies to cars like this.

It still has ~210hp without the boost. It’ll pass just fine.

Aren’t the standards in fleet average? If so, doesn’t it do exactly what you are saying? If it’s easier to bring the average up by making the trucks more efficient, aren’t they going to do that?

Not everyone wants to wack it to the model 3 all of the time.

Any manufacturer that makes cars both here and in Europe makes their cars so they or they can easily be modified to meet either place’s crash standards. Ford and Volkswagen to name two obvious ones.

Well that’s pretty clear intent. There was a lot of discussion about whether the last guy intentionally fell asleep or just dosed off. You could even tell before the guy woke up that he was in it for a nap. Look at the recline of the seat? That’s napping mode.

They can meet EPA standards, they just aren’t building the right cars. European cars would meet U.S. fuel economy standards. They have smaller engines and chassis. What they are really saying is “We can’t meet the EPA guidelines with an F-150.” which, of course, you dumb shits. Build smaller cars with smaller engines…

There is even a good picture of the passenger seat to compare it to. Driver’s seat has definitely seen a lot of miles.
