Hutchinson heard a secondhand account that when Secret Service informed Trump that they wouldn’t be taking him to the Capitol in his presidential limo, he tried to grab the car’s steering wheel and lunged at a Secret Service officer.

I was going to say this. My in-laws have a Honda non-turbo PWC around that year and it’s an absolute blast. The only think I don’t like is the throttle. I’d rather it be like on a Sea-Doo. The finger trigger thing gets tiring.

It’s amazing what a little bit of sparkle will do for a white. When was going to look at what is now my RX-8, I was bemoaning the fact that it was white. But then I saw it in person. Whitewater Pearl. Oh man, it looked so good in person.

This is incredibly stupid. And for some reason, I love it. Definitely ND tho.

TBH that kinda sounds like throwing your coworkers under the bus to save your own tail.

This is the proper take

I’d much rather have a knob than a touchscreen. My legs are long AF. I have to reach considerably far to reach the screen. Having everything right at my fingertips without smudging the screen is a godsend.

I’d gladly take one in this exact color configuration. Basically Rocket League colors. Love it.

It turns out that I consumed an alarming amount of mold at one point. I was given one day to live.

Seeing my lovely orange up there at the number two spot fills me with warm fuzzies

Meh, they’d rather blame anyone else for their poor life choices. 

This isn’t firmly on-topic, but it’s relevant, and I’ve always wondered: Isn’t it kind of dangerous to have a car’s airbag also be its horn button? I mean, you’d want to use your horn in the seconds leading up to an accident to try to prevent it, but doing so puts your hand directly on an explosive charge. Why are all…

I think electrification would be an excellent option for RX-8s. They get abysmal mileage, but have a really nice chassis, weight balance, and are more practical than one would think. Plus getting 15 MPG in this economy sucks hard.

That definitely seems like the most likely scenario here.

My wife and I were driving down the highway kinda late at night in her then-nearly-new Impreza. It had been misting outside and was pretty cold, so we weren’t going terribly fast—probably just 5 or so MPH below the speed limit. I noticed a wreck about 1/8 mile up ahead on the highway. I had some time, so I eased onto…

After watching this for a bit though, it seems clear that the real solution is go much faster so you can ride the second hump’s downward slope.

Indeed. I’m far more familiar with the engine bay of my 8 than any other vehicle ever. It’s at 180k and on its third engine.

Sounds like he wanted to buy in the dip. Use his market manipulation tactics to lower prices all-around so he can buy on the cheap.

Something Unreliable: uses a pic of an RX-8

My wife and mother-in-law were putting something in the trunk of my car and found a blacklight, a rusty old machete, some electrical cords, and a few other odds and ends.
