Dad built this from a set of plans, a single casting and $300 worth of gears, took him 18 months.

I see that picture and I hear fart can exhaust.

I’m stuck in Covid Standard Time. Today is Wednesday, March 675th, 2020.

what I want in my car is a dumb display and a bluetooth speaker system.

I’ll bring my own computation thank you very much.

There is a CR-V owners club. That fact impressed me to no end.

In beautiful Evanston, Illinois, I saw 3 parked in random driveways while on a medium-length dog walk. Then again, I’ve also been at a stoplight with 7 Teslas at once, so I think the northshore just really fucking likes EV’s.

NP all day long.

As someone who regularly experiences a cardiac event when the hummingbirds dive into my backyard unexpectedly... wings can be loud.  Quite loud, even.

more vaporware companies popping up trying to get their piece of the cake and repeat tesla’s unrepeatable success wont do shit to help anyone but investors.

As a wheel designer, I’m fairly certain anyone at Enkei who saw this went “Oof. Okay then.”

“Here’s All Your Opinions on Nuts” [awkward slideshow]

Professional wheel designer here. Anytime you have a different number of spokes to lug holes, a bowl in the hub area (like on the TE37) for the lugs to sit in is one of the better solutions. Covered caps are another option.

I think I’ve seen Honda Fits with 5 spokes and 4 lugs. Never noticed it until somebody pointed it out, but once you see it, you can’t unsee it forever.

Huh? Wrong.

It’s like the 6 spoke wheels were cast by mistake, and the guy with the drill said “Not my fuckin’ job”.

6 out of 5 wheels struggle with math.

If I remember back to biology class, sometimes when two wheels get together, sometimes the undesirable traits match up and low and behold something new is born.

Well, that is a small problem. But if they are NOT protesting in the road, shouldn’t be a problem, right?

I mean, if someone hops a curb in a pickup and mows them down, that should still be manslaughter charges, as they were not....in....the....road.

Couldn’t have said it any better myself

Obviously unpopular take, but hear me out, and try to not flame the piss out of me. I’m happy to discuss, but don’t be a dick about it.

Anyways, this doesn’t change the fact in the slightest about your constitutionally protected right to protest. That’s actually termed “the right to peaceably assemble”. Peaceable
