Somebody said the Corvette, right?

Did the trucks feel like a work vehicle or a daily driver? Many friends here have flamboyantly large and ridiculous trucks that they drive a whopping 2 miles to work, then park backwards in a tiny slot with their huge dually. Claiming that the truck is perfect to live with, but I dont see it...

For my money, the HiMAT is the most beautiful aircraft. Not only because it is 100% function, but it has angry Wasp written all over its little face!

It's the unibody chassis, not the engine and tranny, that lend to the tow rating in this case. Same for the Jeep Grand Cherokee, the unibody will bend long before the engine gives out

Mitsubishi Eclipse concept E:

One thing Dr Tyson forgot to include in one part (the 2.8 0-60mph) is that the peak of acceleration lies just beyond the threshold of grip.

That is because the peak of acceleration lies just beyond the threshold of grip

I have the Grand Cherokee Diesel and I always wondered why they didn't make a 4.0l V8... Maybe that will be the SRT version, one would hope

Planned Obsolescence
It has long been argued that keeping an old 55 Chevy running actually releases less toxic "junk" into the environment that building and running a new Prius.

Something I did not find in the article is the maintenance time required to keep the fleet flying. Many people would claim that other airframes (AH-64 for example) can fill a similar role yet I work in Army Aviation and can tell you that of a fleet of 10 AH-64's on our last deployment at any given time less than 6

I owned a 2000 Mistubishi Eclipse GT. In addition to it being impossible to see anything behind your left shoulder, it had the turning radius of a Blimp. And that clutch was actually nice, until you had to ride it to death trying to parallel park on a hill. Burning clutch and the terrifying fear of trading paint

Jeep Grand Cherokee Diesel Limited 4x4
It has everything, does everything, and is just the easiest vehicle to live with in any environment!

No mention of a Hummer? Or a Ford F550, for the man that compensates for nothing!
