David, were you talking to ECR for another article and brought this up? Or were you just like, “Hey famous engine shop, need your feedback on an old Jeep.” Either way, I’m impressed!

The unspoken elbow-forearm share is a rare thing and should be cherished.

Well that was almost tragi.....wait....is that a Red Fish boat?!  Is Torch up to date on his vintage boat taxonomy?!

Jaguar (and Dodge)....where the 80s died.  In the 90s.

First reaction...”That’s a 1996?!?!!” Can’t say I’m up to date on my mid-90s Jags but I thought they had moved past that design in the late 80s....

From a brand whose broadcast team described fuel injection as though it was witchcraft some 50+ years after it had been in wide use on consumer vehicles and who fans are going to absolutely lose it over centerlocks ruining pit-stops....

Great writeup Jason! But I think you need to avoid using the word “kick” in your infographic font type. I spent a bit trying to figure out what the KKK had to do with this truck....

I’m just assuming they already have the version where they just made 10 louder....

Oh I understand that it was one of your points, but I think it could have been framed better and much more effective without discrediting the safety aspect. If you had focused solely on the subjectivity and unequal application of laws like this it would have been a stronger case (and even have some good recent…

I think there is a better way to talk the wording of the bill potentially signaling different motivators than “safety” and how that can produce further conflict over the issue.....basically, attempting to do something right but for wrong reasons can degrade the issue as a whole.

Had a frankenbike for bike polo. Errant mallet swing bent the rim seam just enough to make a rough edge on the inside. BOOOOOOM! Put everyone of us on the ground instantly. Sounded like an aught-six going off.

This is the reason that nitro engines are designed to not fire pistons skyward.

When Alex Roy is calling you an unsafe idiot, you know you dun really f**ked up.

The one thing I hope so badly from the ever-growing Subaru/Toyota partnership is a better transmission tech.....love my last 2 Subies but that CVT is trash (even though it got a  bit better from a stop than previous iterations).

“Crosstrek.....snapping my neck”? See.....I know this isn’t true because no Crosstrek in the history of ever has accelerated fast enough to snap a neck!

Plenty of folks already saying it, but it needs to be stressed.  This is inappropriate to run. Clicks from someone’s death are uncalled for. At least with the Tesla crash in Texas there is a legitimate underlying story. Here? Not at all. Find something better to post for clicks on the weekend. Like a gallery of…

Tangentially related....seeing the gif of the chair/truck/tombstone makes me think of one of the funniest things I’ve ever been involved with:

After arguing with a furniture store warehouse employee who was refusing to strap a kitchen table to my roofrack, I eventually succeeded......but only after signing the most crudely written “hold harmless” contract ever on a torn piece of packing paper and tying it down myself. Got the table home just fine.

I feel like rain can be an amazing indicator of advancements in a lot of media.  I remember being amazed by the sound of rain falling on armor at the end of The Two Towers as an indicator of advancements in film audio.  I’ve felt similar about BOTW’s rain for overall atmosphere in a game, among others.  Excited to see…
