Yes. The Old TG told the whole story. They may have been obnoxious on occasion, but they were always honest.

They’re not saying this, but from the description, the guy probably got his head cut off when the top of the car was removed by the bottom of the trailer. Non limited access 4 lane highway... cars merging, cars unexpectedly stopping, cutting across lanes... probably not the best place to be playing with a self driving…

All this alien technology, and we have to ride around in a Ford POS...

Ouch. Sounds like the guy got his head cut off. As I understand it, the guy was watching a movie on a portable DVD player while barreling down a non limited access highway, which means side traffic can cut in front of you at any time.

First, I have to wonder about the circumstances of the accident. Just vague descriptions so far, but it sounds like the semi may have changed lanes into the Tesla, which might mean that the driver could have been killed no matter who was driving. The wording of the accident descriptions so far are sufficiently vague…

Will they cover funeral costs, too? If you’re dead, you’re dead, no matter who picks up the bill.

It is a handsome one, isn’t it? If only it had the northstar engine...

A K car derived Shadow, even with a hot engine, even with the Shelby name, even in limited production, is still a K car derived Shadow. If you want to put $5k into a rare, sharp handling, classy vehicle that has the strong potential to rise in price soon, look at a M-B 190 16v. You can still find running ones with…

Price seems a bit high. I’ve seen 6 speed 850's in good shape under $15k. It’s an interesting car, very attractive too, but it’s also a big, heavy lunk of a car. If you want a winner for $20k, look at an E39 M5 instead.

So the US has to come in and bail the UK out again?

Not necessarily. Even a large nation like China would have to think long and hard before elevating a conflict to a nuclear level. Crossing that line is fraught with risk. In any case, our chances of getting into a conflict with China or Russia is far less likely than getting into a conflict with a terrorist group…

Jaguar and Land Rover rank very low on that list, so I have reason to doubt the effectiveness of this method.

Sort of makes you wonder who really is behind the ‘war on women’...

Yes, the 540/6 is a terrific car... but it is a high performance vehicle, and does have maintenance requirements. Cooling system craps out at 100k miles, suspension bushings go out at around 125k (shimmy when braking), and the timing chain guides can give out in the mid to high hundreds, but you can forestall that by…

Put it in the context of that time. We were looking at a possible nuclear exchange with the Soviets, and what they learned from that was used to predict the results and develop treatments. Today, we know that no one would survive a full nuclear exchange, but at that time, both sides had limited numbers of warheads,…

Possibly, but if someone lets a nuke fly at us, we got a few thousand to send in return. That’s a huge line for a potential adversary to cross.

Hold on... if the one guy got a yellow card for urinating, shouldn’t the other one have received a brown card for cutting the cheese?

And what did our president, whose law enforcement agencies missed at least two opportunities to stop the maggot Orlando shooter, have to say? Donald Trump is dangerous.

This used to be called a lob-toss, for low altitude delivery of a nuclear warhead. Typically, the plane would go nose high, release the bomb, and then pull through the vertical into inverted, then roll over and be going the other way while the bomb arced upward for a while, then came back down and went boom.

Surprising that the Typhoon doesn’t compare that well to the F18, even though it is more expensive and a far newer design. The F18 design dates back to the 1970's - it was originally the F17, Northrop’s competitor to the F16.
