Anyone who has a mortgage on a house?

Try a new sprocket if you want to ride your 300 on the highway. A bigger front or smaller rear sprocket (or both) can help you reduce the RPM’s at highway cruising speed, at the expense of some torque down low.

Nah, you don’t need 600cc on the highway in the US.  Where I live, traffic speeds often reach 80mph (not the speed limit, the actual traffic speed), and my Ninja 250 has no trouble keeping up.  I wouldn’t recommend 125, though.

Just like he fixed the Sonics.

Jerry also didn’t have as much plastic surgery.

They just forgot to mention that the Panamera will have a price increase to $180k+ next year. ;-)

Heck, I live in a small town, in a house in an urban neighborhood. I still have street parking only (my house was built in 1925). One reason I’m considering moving is the possibility of having an electric or at least a plug-in hybrid car. Another, of course, is to have somewhere to wrench or even just being able to

... Oats?  Apples?  Don’t leave me hanging!

Too bad they used it incorrectly (sad trombones).

The side of the van that we can’t see reads “FREE CANDY”.

I think I just had a stroke. Thanks for the laugh!

Easily.  By the law saying, “get out of the way if someone is trying to pass you, regardless of speed.”  You are responsible for your own actions, not those of everyone else.  You are not a law enforcement officer.

As long as you’re not doing that in the passing lane when there is room for you to get over - more power to you :)

Wow, that was like ‘Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 1964'

Absolutely true. But the dude straight up says he’s saving for a house. Obviously, everyone has different priorities. For me, a nice used GT-R or something for under $50k would be more like it, and save for the house that much sooner. But, I obviously don’t live in Beverly Hills and so my idea of what blends in is

HOLY SHIT!!  Thank you for sharing that quote.  That is so sad and true.

“Physically putting the car into Wet Mode almost guarantees you won’t oversteer when you’re driving.”

Thank You!  I was trying to remember what the name of that was (from the Torch article a few months back).

I mean, it’s not like it will ever get driven again by the buyer :(

You sure about that? They mentioned that it also comes with the race suit, shoes, gloves, and helmet used to complete the final test of the Supra before signing off on production, so I’m guessing they didn’t wash the underside after the test laps?  I was also looking at that tire wear, those are not new tires.
