Eh, most crossovers are still low enough to actually be decent on rollover. If your replaced the Silverado with the average generic CUV, the top the of the Challenger is connecting just below the beltline, not the center of the door.

I think that’s a testament to how heavy and powerful the Challenger is as well. 

Underrated sidebar to this conversation; how utterly absurd it is that the new Silverado is so big and tall that being broadsided by something with a nose as high, flat, and square as a Challenger is enough to roll it over. Absolute lunacy.

But strictly in terms of bans? PARKING. Either get rid of it in spaces we shouldn’t have cars, or charge fair market value.

It’s absolutely maddening that here is some rich dude who is ready and willing to throw million of dollars away on public transit projects, but makes them the dumbest vanity projects imaginable.

I’m in Chicago, and pretty much everyone is going an hour outside of the city for theirs. I got mine in Dekalb. 

I’m convinced they’ll still be flying it unironically whenever he dies. 

Seriously, this is what makes these reveal parties extra dumb. I haven’ t had any kids myself, but my parents swear waiting until delivery to find out is one of the most incredible feelings ever.

The Stockholm Syndrome demands I defend the near west burbs for their, uh, plucky working class attitude? I guess?

Oh man, big appreciation to this from another Chicago person. My current roommate is from Michigan and made a joke about uninsured drivers in front of a bunch of locals and they got actually angry at him for it. 

was gonna say the 80's shelby chargers as a joke but it made me think of this and frankly i can’t not post it.

Ugh. There was a girl I knew in college who would march into every non-light-controlled crosswalk without looking and say “it’s ok they have to stop for you!”

Never Forget:

With tens of thousands of Americans dying in on our roads every year, it’s clear something has to give. Either we’re all going to stop driving, or we’re going to get robots to do it for us.

And with how bonkers corporate-level accounting is, even a single month of not producing and selling as many units as they laid out causes the banks to have a conniption.

Sort of. Technically any motor is a “power plant” in that something is getting burned or spun to create watts. But there isn’t really a 1:1 ratio with the power generated to the movement of the ship itself. Thrust is weird.

Honestly even if they don’t wind up blocking the canal, we are still left with two probably heavily damaged ships, or at worst, one on its side. 

When you decide to drag your sport out of the Confederate-flag-waving Women-hating Noose-hanging “Stock” car pretense as a whole, go ahead and give us a call about dirt being ‘unprofessional.’

Hell yeah. I actually heard this used as an argument against people who think 9/11 looked like a controlled demolition. If you get them to understand just how heavy the floors are above the impact zone, and once they start move, you would need a divine amount of force to make them fall any other direction than…

Two thoughts:
