“I wish we had kei cars in the US...”

Again...my point is that in order to do “everything” it weighs more, costs more, and does certain things badly. I understand that it’s something the Marines need if they want to use something that’s not a helicopter, but what they should have gotten was their own goddamn airplane.

How long has it been for Goldman-Sachs? They helped orchestrate a global economic collapse costing hundreds of billions of dollars and millions of jobs.

“those SS# are out there people have to have their identity watched and to do that buy a security service a majority of which pay fees to Equifax”

“TBH the vertical take off is a really the aviation equivalent of a bar trick”

There’s an amazing suite of techniques for dealing with that, collectively referred to as “parenting.”

original, extra crispy or grilled?

Equifax lost millions of social security numbers tied to people’s names and other personal information.

Yes I’m very glad to hear that a few of those extra 10,000lbs were used to provide additional fuel capacity. Most of them I lay at the head of our Marines, since the F-35 airframe needed to support a VTOL option which doesn’t even work (it technically does, provide you load it with minimal fuel and no weapons). This…

“Whereas a gas car, well, they get dirtier every year”

CA is still the least green state in the union. It doesn’t matter how many Teslas get sold over here, you still did this. Oh...and closed down every single nuclear power station in the state. Best of luck running those proposed desalination plants without it.

“F-35s don’t need drop tanks do carry out the same missions as F-16s, so...”

Oh “the sky” is most definitely not the limit in Honda-town, but 200hp in a 2100lb car is nothing to sneeze at.

The Civic above will support a hybrid Acura/Honda engine pumping out over 200 fwhp, given the 800 lb advantage I consider those in no way tame other than the (seemingly mandatory) WW-I Biplane based body kit generally acquired at the same time as the B16/B18 + VTEC head.

Does parking (literally all night, from 12am-9am) qualify me to post? When you’re in Crater Lake national park and they’re full, you get to drive 60 miles back to Klamath Falls, OR and wait till morning.

Add Toyota and Honda anything to that list. I mean, unless you’re talking the 25 people with a NSX....it’s an appliance, if it won’t stay off the sidewalk by itself who can say where it will go.

So gen-2 F-35s are modelled after Wonder Woman’s invisible jet? That’s excellent news. Please alert Oscar Goldman immediately.

As much as I think certain new cars are awesome, the 1990's aren’t 20 years ago and there were some pretty bitchin cars then too. Fast cars from automakers who never produced anything genuinely fast in their lives? How cool is that? They were also a time where you could produce a 2000 (ish) pound car without crafting…

Clearly you’ve never used the stuff.

“Your aero argument is exactly wrong. All low-Cd cars have blunt front ends with more than ample area for a license plate.”
