This is 100% a huge problem. The gas crisis and “speed kills” falsehood has fucked us over forever. Go to Europe and the normal highway speed is 130kph, which is just over 80mph. Our base highway speed in the US is still 55mph, continued from the 1970s when it was enacted to save gas, not lives. Nowadays, going 55mph…

The tough part is two-fold.

It’s passive-aggressive driving (note that second word there) . Driving smugly in the left lane because you feel you are within the law and nobody else matters causes everyone behind you to get angry and make unwise decisions. You are absolutely the cause, don’t try to pass the blame. Plus, it’s illegal in most…

Your last paragraph nails it. “These companies weren’t built with diversity in mind”. No, these companies were built with success in mind and clearly it worked. Now that they are a big successful company in the spotlight, they have to worry about crap like ‘adding diversity’ so that they don’t get called racist for…

So you are saying that these companies that bring in billions of dollars in profit every year should have worried more about diversity when they started? That somehow more diversity in their tiny company would have allowed them to succeed even more than they already have? So focus specifically on hiring the guy that…

Did he work at Indian Head?

You just have to be smart about it. I read a book about explosives on an international flight and nobody was the wiser. Just some masking tape over the word “Explosives” on the cover and it was just another book.

Also already a thing in Ocean City, MD. Honestly, it’s pretty lame because you are going soooo slow. The Autobahn electric indoor carts are 1000x better and Summit Point Kart was 1000000x better. https://speedworldoc.com/attractions/cyclone-cart-coaster/

A gymnast friend of mine will tell you that first scenario is a terrible idea. While training in college, she found a “not so springy spot” on a floor landing and it destroyed her knee. I think she’s up to 3 surgeries now.

That’s a really bad argument. People here are saying how much adding a turbo would cost because “its not just the price of the parts that matters”, and here you are stating that the wing on the car costs 10 fucking percent of the overall price! Meaning the cost of the car went up far less than the sum of the parts…

The article was ignorant? That’s the word you want to go with there?

Seems legit. My wife and I went with a bunch of friends on a eurotrip last year. Landed in Munich, rented a van, drove straight to Prague. The only thing we needed at the Czech border was to purchase a sticker to put on the windshield. Nobody even mentioned a passport.

In parts of Maryland, the tubes are still used at liquor stores to ring a bell alerting the cashier that there is someone in the drive thru lane.

No. I personally think Lexus interiors are terrible. Like they hired three different designers and didn’t let them work together before slamming the final product together. And the analog clock is absolutely out of place in an otherwise very modern, bordering on futuristic, interior.

I’m biased too, but I’ll say the E90 335i. My mom is about to replace her 08 335i sedan, manual with sport package. She bought it new and it just went over 60k miles. I want to buy it from her and the KBB and NADA are around $9-10k. I randomly checked the forums and auto trader and found people selling similar models…

This will be a competitor to the upcoming X3M and the AMG GLC. The ones you mentioned are much bigger and much more expensive. Jag just happened to give their small SUV wayyy more power than anyone else.

It’s not false confidence, it’s tactile feedback because there are clicks at each gear. When I move from D to P, there are 3 detents along the way, one for N, R, then P. If the shifter stops at N, it’s only one.

Possibly. It is pretty jarring when it stops after one click instead of moving 3 clicks. Like you expect the shifter to move 3-4 inches and it only moves one.

But then when you open the door, the car DINGs at you and the dash says “vehicle not in park”. So if you don’t pay attention to that, or the gear indicators on…

The accident could have been avoided by him looking at the shifter or the dash to make sure his Jeep was in park before getting out. Or he could have heeded the *ding* and the dash warning that says “vehicle is not in park” when he opened the door.

Sure, it’s not an engineering control, but some people do occasionally…
