I have no doubt that self-driving cars can and will eliminate traffic issues, in the future.

Yeah, JRA is an industry standard. lol

I did 15+ years of retail and retail management before moving to the manufacturer side. TBH, most of the time the phone/email gig was fine. The worst part, for me, was how repetitive it was. You will answer the same three inane questions endlessly.

I was working at a sporting goods store on 9/11. We closed the store after everything went down. I didn’t have a car, at the time, so I was waiting out front for a ride when someone in a BroTruck pulled up and rolled down the window:

702 makes more sense. Even that seems light, though. Maybe cyclists are more apt to email/call in to complain than NASCAR fans?

I used to handle the “Customer service” phone calls and emails for a bicycle manufacturer. I can confirm, people will bitch about, quite literally, anything.

So they ARE one big piece of carbon? Fascinating! The weight/joint issues make complete sense

So, maybe this is a stupid question, but... Why don’t they transport the blade in sections (surely they can’t be all one piece) and assemble at the final destination?

Not fast enough, you say?? Engage Super Pursuit Mode!

I’ve seen a few nicely modified Crossfires. Actually made the car look good

Stunningly bad

Lol, I thought it was a Crossfire with a bad body kit...

Lol. I thought you were joking, at first, but based on your other comments, it’s clear that you’re just another internet troll.

I just...

I used to see these every once in a while at Lime Rock at vintage festivals. As beautiful as they are on the screen, they are even more stunning in person
