I’m actually surprised that CA doesn’t already require a GPS enforced 70 mph speed limiter on all cars. Sure, traffic ticket revenue would decline, but no more harrowing chases.

Still one helluva flight. Most the majority of us will ever do is 32K in an airliner. Well Done and God Speed on your next flight, Mr. Branson.

Thus, running the risk of any Montana buyer being a potential exporter may be deemed as “too much hassle” (as noted in the article). Thanks for the clarification.

It was refreshing to see their actually thoughtful commentaries calling out the BS of various groups. I’ll never forget the “If you wanna make the Indy500 relevant again, ban re-fueling! Make it the endurance race it once was” before they both spoke of the history, with sincere reverence for how long the races were,…

Why doesn’t anyone want talk about the fact that the cars still do more than the speed limit? Especially in CA. They limit the number of rounds in gun magazines but don’t mandate 55/75/whatever speed limiters on autos.

The retractable wing sounds interesting as I’ve only seen one on a McLaren. Watching it raise when the car cornered never stopped being mesmerizing. can’t wait to see one in action on a Porsche.

“Don’t Tread On Me.” It goes both ways. Please explain how this simple philosophy is (as you put it) “so incredibly wrong” and “out of touch”. Also, please be so kind as to elaborate on what your personal, quantifiable definition for “poor”.

It’s hard to quantify what makes someone “poor”. In the 1960s, when many of these programs began, “poor” meant you could not afford food - much less something as luxurious as a TV set. These were intended to be short term programs that gave a ‘hand up’ out of poverty in times of need (such as losing the breadwinner,…

Hell No! One reason I didn’t by from GM was the whole OnStar BS. “Free for 5 years” my ass! That $300+ a year subscription was already included into the overall cost of the car - enough to encourage them to cut corners in quality elsewhere. My Opinion only.

Trust the Owner’s Manual. Most civilian cars do just fine with regular octane gas - and it says so in my 2006 Scion xB. Same with my wife’s 2013 Hyundai Sonata.

Agree on Moss, Graham and Fangio.

Ok, Jezebel, then let’s talk about a Fact about Harris.

Nice response to the first part so I’ll elaborate. The last time I worked weekends, the additional pay took me from a 28% to very low 33% bracket - an tax increase of 18%. Back then we had 10,15, 22, 28, 33 and 35%. Now we have even more brackets 10, 12, 22, 24, 32, 35, 37%. A ten year difference in inflation says $1.2…

“We already do that, with many things.”

Disagree. Laws should be across the board - regardless of socio-economic ‘class’. As the driver of a 15 yr old car with 260K miles, I’m only slightly envious of Porsche/Ferrari drivers. If we can entice people to pay ‘better for the environment’ cars with any tax break, I’m game.

“Hi! I’m Sean, and I’m a one car owner kind of guy. It has been 15 years since my last new car purchase for myself. Seven years ago, I purchased a car for my wife. We paid it off a year early just to get that No Car Payment feeling. In fact, I’m addicted to the high of not having a car payment. I will buy, then drive, …

Yep. Comedy Channel/Comedy Central aired even some of the old “cable access TV” shows that Joel did. I was in grad school and remember shows like BTAS, Babylon5, and MST3K as being wonderful distractions. I’ve even had the privilege of meeting Joel at DragonCon 2014. Super nice guy.

TDK did something that we don’t see often in movies - a DC Comics live action film that delivers.

Voter ID is allegedly suppression, but how? GA State ID’s are easy to obtain for anyone who shows a modicum of effort. Source:

This also plays into the typical ATL cop narrative that it’s ok to kill “sex workers”, which seems to be an ok motive for the APD. If this dude confesses, exterminate him. Capital punishment for capital crime - which will also help save the planet since his carbon footprint will be zero.
