For this car at this price I don’t think a serious buyer will be scared away by zip ties.

Seems to take a lot of risks, but this is anticipation. There was traffic oncoming preventing the van from acting on its left turn signal. Similarly with the bus: the gap was going to stay sufficiently wide even with oncoming cars. Those early turns, all the traffic was flowing, and he made himself part of the flow.

I’d like to imagine he was on the phone with the agent while getting a ride home. He gets close to his house and screams; “you have got to be f*****g kidding me” into the ears of Jake from State Farm. Followed by; “well can I start a second claim now or will you need to put me on hold first?”

I would NOT recommend this in a manual car. At least, not MY car. With no synchro for reverse, my car makes an absolutely atrocious sound if you are moving forward at all and shift into reverse.

Rattle cans are hard to do a good job with. However, texturing often indicates that you’re holding the can too far away from what you’re painting.

Really hard to explain to people that my dream car is essentially a restomod Porsche with a sticker price twice that of a Ferrari.

Watch the road?

On the outside of a turn with your back against a rock wall with your camera or whatever?

Uhh, the motorcyclist is at fault here. It would be one thing if he was at a closer follow distance, but he’s way way back. Had plenty of time to stop.

No, you got it pretty much right. Unfortunately it seems like there are a lot more asshat bikers than there are us level-headed bikers.

It wouldn’t be Lanesplitter without dumb excuses for dumb motorcyclists.

If this is a useless comparison i expect you to NEVER post another article about 0-60 times.


...briefly!

I have no audio right now, so I can’t hear, but the stupid thing is only half in the snow and there are enough of them there to just push it a little. Seems like a fake “oh shit” video.

Kips are just a way of saying 1,000 pounds of force. 28 kips = 28,000 pounds of force. Makes it easier in structural calculations dealing with steel and concrete where the numbers can get really big.

“Inside nearly everything made of concrete, you’ll find reinforced steel rods that compress the material, making buildings, bridges, and other structures even stronger.”

“So much for supposed brute strength of reinforced steel.”

Agreed. I went from “Eeewwww nooo” to “Damn, OK that looks pretty fucking good.”

For the few geeks that care about that, sure... For the rest of the population, no, nobody cares.

I really didn’t like the first shots of the Mustang design that were posted a few days ago but the cover photo in that colour and that angle looks sweeeeet. I think this design is going to look better in darker colours.
