yeah, because vandalism is cool....

I don't care if you hate Smart cars, fucking with someone's car, especially when unprovoked, is bullshit. Let's not condone it.

Somebody needs to go back to school and learn how to make a chart/graph ...

Yes this is a needlessly messy chart.

Why is the chart on an angle? Sorry, this bothers me.

I know the typical "Jalop" thing is to hate Toyota because beige. But for a family hauler. The Sienna is it. From what I've seen when driving them, it's better than the Odyssey in the looks department, it's got more room, and build quality I think is just a bit higher. And you still have something relatively "sporty"…

I love our Toyota Sienna for family duty. And because it has a handicapped conversion with a ramp, I don't have to break-down the stroller. I put the kid in the car seat and just roll it in and park it next to my wife. Also the dropped floor makes getting him in and out of the car-seat much easier than reaching…

Pretty much every car is slower doing 5-60 than it is from 0-60. This is because when accelerating from a stop, you can dump the clutch at high RPMs (or brake torque the car to high RPMs if it is an automatic). When you accelerate from 5-60, you have no choice but to accelerate from low RPMs because the car is already…

Lotus 76. The arrow shape is one reason it's one of my favorites.

I thought the flat rate was for repair, not diagnosis. Once the diagnosis comes back "change fuse" then the "flat rate" of about 50 cents to replace a fuse would kick in.

I sense disappointment in your near future...

I'm gonna have to say the RQ-4 "Global Hawk". Most people think of drones as relatively small in size... maybe as big as a very tall person. Then there is this whale of a thing from Northrop Grunman. It's huge. Not to mention that it has that typical "drone" appearance that is far different than a standard…

The General Atomics Predator and its derivatives. It's conventional, common, and the iconic image of a drone, but it seems to have a cloaking device that hides it from American liberals each November.

The XJ was also a unibody construction and the KL Trailhawk is just as, if not more capable than any stock XJ.

Uhhh.. that thing ranks Michigan #22....

It actually is, although you are clearly trying to be sarcastic. I think at the last measurement, Tennessee had the strongest automotive manufacturing production of any state in the country:

That's not how political calculus works there. Under no circumstance will you find a politician willing to weaken his own base without getting something positive for it. And even if there is a fair tradeoff, many would NEVER do something to give their opponents a break. The long history of Democratic dominance in…

Growth in the Tennessee Valley right around there has been pretty rapid for a few years now. Housing and real estate start to become an issue if you grow too quickly. It's better to grow slowly, than to do boom/bust cycles. Also, the line jobs aren't that well paying really, if you look at the average wage. The…

Whether there was 'grease' or not is hardly an established point at this juncture. What I DO know, is that if he gave tax breaks to an organization that eventually increased Union activity and Democratic influence in East Tennessee, he would have holy Hell to pay with the state republican base. He's not stupid. He…

Well now that we've had our Gawker sponsored democrat shill post his story, lets look for something that is only "veiled" in the story.
