There is only one thing you need to see in a car ad.

Heat is one part of this kind of desert racing, the other is vibration. Anyone who has done much fast sand driving can attest that it is NOT smooth. Sand is a bitch for ruts, wind blown ripples and whoop de dos that shake the living shit out of everything.

“There is not systemic racism in America,” Reeves replied. “We live in the greatest country in the history of mankind.”

How else are you gonna keep the schools full of targets for all those guns?

“The Roc carrier plane itself got some nice upgrades during its two year hiatus. Roc uses systems adapted from a Boeing 747-400 like its engines, landing gear and flight deck.”

Exactly, in fact most things can be fixed with just 3 sizes, 10mm, 12mm and 14mm. Chuck in a 2 point Phillips head screw driver and you’ve got your emergency tool kit. 

God damn, America huh? So to get around the stupid chicken tax the govt actually allowed seats in the bed to count toward it being a fucking car, safety first!

Kinda sad really, Ghia were a really talented design house who under Ford ended up as just a badge on blah mobiles to signify the higher spec versions.

Was the 474 the mini version of the 747?

On a 2CV you can do most of this without tools. 

Sure does.

Absolutely could work, wouldn’t be cost effective though. Population is so sparse in many places unless they were dropped in gratis by someone the locals could never afford to install them.

The Nullarbor maybe, eventually but who pays for that? Those roadhouses are just eking out a living as it is. Hell last time I drove it the actual “Nullarbor roadhouse” (its the last one on the SA side) was out of ice because their desalinator died and they were low on drinking water!
