I’ve always assumed phones pose no threat to plane electronics. I’m sure if you could knock a plane out of the sky by leaving your phone on, terrorists would have figured that out years ago. If phones posed any real threat you would be forced to surrender them at boarding so they could be put in a faraday container…

I’m somewhat surprised they priced this thing so close to the GX. A Land Cruiser edition with the premium package is 70K, same price you’d pay for a GX Overtrail. 

I’m sure some big money liberal donors would be happy to step up and fund this, hell if John put up a go fund me I’d donate. 

This definitely seems to make room for the 4Runner to go down a size and maintain it’s 40K ish starting price, using the new Tacoma platform. 

Same.

Ramsay makes some valid points: lots of people borrow way too much at ridiculous interest rates to buy vehicles they don’t need. His solutions are extreme to the point of insanity however. He tells people only millionaires should even consider buying a new car. If everyone followed that advice the car market would…

There is absolutely no reason for a rich yacht buyer to want a large scale submarine like this. It’s far more safe, comfortable and cost effective to eat and sleep on your mega yacht floating on the surface, then pop down on your mini sub to explore reefs when the mood strikes you. 

I’ve heard this movie was coming, but for some reason I always assumed it was an animated comedy. It never occurred to me until seeing this still that it might be live action.

Others have commented on this but there are generally established safety procedures. The lift staff are supposed to check every car at the end of the day before shutting down. Someone screwed up badly here.

I’ve been skiing for 30 years and I’ve never seen a gondola with any sort of alarm or emergency alert button.

I enjoyed his series on Japan, and definitely planning to watch the India show at some point. 

Change it to PeepeePoopooTime Lane. 

This article doesn’t even mention the potential injury risk from the slicers. It will only take a few lawsuits from employees cutting off their fingers to negate any cost benefits. 

That’s only for a black start button, if you want it in red it’s 25K

I’m not sure if the political climate here will ever allow us to do the level of infrastructure spending you see in Europe and Asia.

Does she want to sell it? I’m shocked mileage was that bad for a small car.

I was really blown away by a recent trip to Japan. Not only are platform barriers pretty ubiquitous, but the high speed trains have no road crossings whatsoever. They’ve put an amazing effort into safety. 

How bad are the ride and fuel economy trade offs for the overtrail? The setup looks awesome but is it worth the tradeoff if you are not planning to do any serious off roading? 

I LOVE the Sportcross, came close to buying one a few times and still regret not picking one up years ago. They are hard to find now though. owners know how rare they are and want a huge premium over the sedans, especially for clean ones.
