I don’t know why you’d punish yourself with a truck at all during the week. I’d think if it’s practical for you to house a trailer, boat, and whatever else then you could probably reasonably house a dedicated tow rig and daily drive some kind of car. Bonus is that you don’t put weekend miles on your daily and you…

All that really matters is the output. That 3.0L probably makes as much torque as most of the bigger 5.0-6.0 engines from 20 years ago. Its lighter and cheaper (passed on to consumer). The actual power figure doesn’t determine how much you can tow, only how quickly you can tow it. I towed a car on a flatbed trailer…

And don’t forget, a 3/4 - 1 ton isn’t designed to be driven over 65 mph unloaded.

Like we’re gonna take towing advice from “Trailerman”, Where is empty 4.5' bed man? I need to know how this thing handles stop and go traffic!

Get out of here with your sensibility.

Because a billionty foot pounds of torque isn’t actually ever required by 99.99% of half ton buyers. People who actually need a tow rig buy 3/4 ton and 1 ton trucks. Most of these half ton trucks see commuter duty and the occasional bag of mulch. They’re dad mobiles. And 400+ ft/lb of torque is more than enough to get…

I think it has to do with Ford/GM/Ram product portfolio being more filled out. Ford offers 5 engine options, GM 4, Ram 3, and Nissan 2. Ford/GM/Ram have to worry about competing with themselves, where as Nissan just wants to take customers away from the rest and stay competitive.

As a Canadian, I approve...thanks for the new Canadian Anthem. Give’r the beans and we’ll go for a double-double!

No. As someone who worked for JD Power I can tell you it is one vehicle per segment. Segments are size, market position, and bodytype. For example, Compact Luxury Car, Compact (non-luxury car), Midsize SUV, Compact SUV, etc. There are a total of 27 segments.

No way. They are going to fight, with glorious moves of astonishing style, until both, nearly exhausted, see the mutual respect in each other’s eyes. They will then pass between themselves some subtle but unmistakable signs of bro-hood and proceed to turn their fight into a synchronized dance of exultation and…

I assume Mr. Ficarra also provided the phone books that Mr. Cruise is sitting on in this picture:

Yeah, this looks like a paid ad to me and Gizmo just passing it off as an ‘article’. You can get a smarthings hub (or any other hub that supports the zwave or zigbee standard) for around $80 and then add smart switches that are around 25-35 bucks each. Much cheaper and use existing standards that can connect to alexa,…

I don’t think anyone had a problem with the content of the show (so far) and neither of the personalities involved were directly tied to the offensive article. All of the controversy was tied to content written by others that had appeared on the Bar Stool website and the Bar Stool name being attached to the show.

Gonna be one heck of a jam session in the afterlife tonight:

You realise that’s in most states getting a suppressor simply requires a $200 tax stamp, in addition to the cost of the item? Like, its not even illegal, This just makes em cheaper and easier to get.

I know no one wants to hear the science facts of suppressors. They lower the sound level from about 160 dBA to 110 dBA for 22 LR. For comparison a rock concert is 110 dBA, so is a jackhammer. A table saw is 105 dBA. Suppressed pistols are about 125 dBA and suppressed centerfire rifles are 135 dBA. A balloon popping is…

I don’t know if I’d call that relentless. Aggressive maybe, but relentless implies that they keep trying. For the most part, if you explicitly tell them to stop, they stop. Especially if you tell them that it will permanently damage any chance of future business with you.

same here, took my Civic in to get those Tanaka airbags replaced and a couple months later I’m getting text messages and phone calls saying come in today and trade your Civic in for a new one! no thanks, as much as I would thoroughly enjoy a incredibly fast depreciating asset, I much more enjoy my $0 monthly payment.  

I went to a dealer to browse and test drive a few cars. Ended up not being able to buy because I had to replace my fridge and hot water tank in the span of 4 days. The day after I spent all that money, the sales guy I was talking with called. I explained to him what happened and received a call or email twice a week…
