I refuse to even have electronic ignition in my car. No way in hell will I let electronics drive me around. Nor do I want to do anything else but drive while I’m in my car. Both hands on the steering wheel all the time unless I’m shifting. Passenger talks? Yell at them to shut up because I’m driving. Phone? Usually…

This will certainly make for a very unique investigation due to the plane actually crashing inside a building. It's likely that it will be far easier to investigate than a crash outside, due to the containment of most or all of the parts inside the warehouse.

Or he could have lifted it and put some mud terrains on it. Then it would be able to go over practically any road feature (or off-road feature).

Absolutely. I’ve been pulled over in multiple cars over the years simply because the officer thought it was a cool or unusual car. On a related note I have also been pulled over for lack of an inspection sticker on a few occasions because I was in the process of fixing the car to where it would pass, and got away with…

The old spirit of hot-rodding seems to be mostly lost, both on the older generations that grew up doing it that way, and the young people that grew up in the era of ECUs and fuel injection. Everything seems to be about either “traditional” hot rods, or modern fuel injected cars and engines, and among the younger…

I’m 19 and pretty much the only one of these I knew was Legit. Then again I don't know anyone else my age. Most of my friends are at least 30. I don't understand the thought process behind not speaking in proper English.

I never understood the concept of bigger wheels as an upgrade. They make everything look like a stagecoach, are expensive, and dent/crack super easily. What I see as the upgrade is the smallest possible wheel that will fit over the brake, made of the most durable material, combined with a tire with the most amount of…

Meanwhile I’m only 5'7", and wish there was a way to get shorter, purely for the purpose of being able to fit better into very small/confined spaces.

Aviation maintenance is woefully understaffed at the moment, and well paid.

Same with me, although my cars don’t even have Bluetooth. I guess one has a tape deck, so that’s the closest thing I have. For that matter, they dont have OBD ports, ECUs, electronic ignition, or even electric choke. Much of the time I don’t have my phone on me, and if I do, I usually just chuck it vaguely in the…

People actually use armrests?

Depends how strict you are on the definition of “car engine”. If you mean an engine that was actually installed in a production car, then probably the 2.0 Ecoboost or 2.0 Ecotec, with 250-350 HP. If you mean automotive-style engine that may not have been installed in a production car, then any of the various…

And a whole lot of states also have emissions exemptions for cars over a certain age. In MA if it's over 25 years old they don't even pop the hood.

May I suggest a TDI instead? Amazing power potential, great fuel mileage, extremely durable, and you get the cool factor of it being a diesel VW Jetta Ute.

I've always had cars that take sealed beams, and around here, they look for whether the conversion housing is DOT certified (I've actually been told that conversion housings are exempt from wattage requirements by an inspection official), and not the bulb, so as long as you stick with a normal halogen bulb in the…

The absolute best headlights I have ever seen were just simple sealed beam conversion housings with 100W hi beam/130W low H4 bulbs (Hella Rally bulbs) installed. Looked as bright as the sun and just regular headlight color, not this blue bullshit they're peddling now.

If it's black then why is the photo of a yellow Corvette?

You are correct in it’s use for gun sights and watches. Depending on how vintage your watch is, it may actually be radium illuminated rather than tritium. Pre-1968 watches may very likely be radium. If it’s marked with a letter “T” usually in a circle it is tritium illuminated. The half life of tritium is only 12…

Considering that one of my neighbors is a hotel with open wifi, it’s as simple as connecting a range extender, and I get free WiFi and Ethernet, which is is perfectly fine for what i use it for, which is 99% reading, watching YouTube videos at the lowest resolution (I don't care about resolution or audio quality, just…
