@pip-bip If we didn't have Lambo mishaps, Mustangs would have all the glory. Also, where is @SilentbutnotreallyDeadly ?

yea, i've been wondering the same too. it's been more than a month since the last time he logged in — hope you're okay man @SilentbutnotreallyDeadly

@Highlander My 2004 Outback has this problem. I think I read the problem was so widespread that Subaru ended up recalling/repainting a bunch of these back in the day.

@bison78 This was written by AI wasn't it

@Jimmy-Steel its 500 cars that they need to do...Porsche has the drawing somewhere, just call up a CNC shop and get them made. its not like its 100K cars that need the parts.

@Highlander Space Shuttle Enterprise at the Intrepid Museum in NYC. I took this photo last summer.

@KAC thank you.

@Cé-hé-sin I think in Europe it's called Honda Dream or Honda Wave. Quite surprising to me because i thought the engine displacement might be too small in the continent

@Manwich said in Is there a 'GT' for every letter of the alphabet?:

I haven nothing for the few missing letters.

Ah yes... I remember the RX7 GTU.

Named after the IMSA GTU class which the RX7 dominated. IIRC IMSA ran two GT classes GTO and GTU. GTO was for over 3 liters (or equivalency with turbos) and GTU was under 3 liters.

@Dash-Doorhandle-and-Bondo the car that brought me home, and hopefully also the vehicle that'll bring my future children home 😎

@Just-Jeepin Good night. And I’ll say it again - I miss my TJ.

I won’t lie - I’m always looking for an unmolested manual sport.

@JRC99 the TCM needs signal from the trans to let it rev in these. the ecm/TCM/sensor setup in these can be an absolute nightmare. my 5.8 took 3 tcm's before it would shift properly. both shops i took it to told me to rebuild the trans lol

@derp long warm evenings with fireflies are just unheard of out here on the west coast. Also the pre-white-people prairie areas there (Konza, Tallgrass) are absolutely gorgeous

@Someoneatacura

Definitely explore old town on foot. Great restaurants and walking along Le Promenade de Vieux Port....

I like Gaspar Brasserie and The Coldroom.

Also definitely try some French phrases out. The locals appreciate it...

@john-norris I will, I still love F1 but cars have dropped off the radar somewhat as there’s so much going on (and my friends have got me into politics).

@f86sabre

Neat! I finally had a trip on an A350-1000 last week on a BA flight to LHR - I think they are running the RR Trent XWB-97. Great ride and comfortable cabin environment (pressure, temp, moisture, noise). The A35K seems better executed than the B787-900 which I have flown several times now.

I (unfortunately) had to fly economy, and picked the third row of world traveler which was row 32 (!) in this BA configuration located all the way back at the trailing edge of the wing... The a/c is configured with 56 club world and a couple dozen world traveler plus seats ahead of steerage class...

I am sure the cockpit jumpstart was more interesting... At any rate, the A35K is my new fave a/c...

@Avcracy I love how everyone giving you unrepentantly antique choices 😂 that celica is choice tho

@PowderHound not a dud on the first 2 albuums, the 3rd is a bit of a challenging mess.

😱

How did that happen?

Anyway, glad it was easy to replace ☺

@Demon-Xanth said in FedEx...WTF?:

Those in the Portland area will just nod at that mention.

I've been burned enough by the Portland-Troutdale tennis match 😭

the charging system not living up to its name

It seems to be charging your credit card just fine!

Oh, and Happy Birthday!

@іди-на-хуй-Влад-formerly-known-as-Distraxi Something like that

"Inoperable" aka Ran When Parked.

These are a sight to behold, really amazing machines. The scale is hard to fathom, I'd love to see one in person.

@Qaaaaa first rule of Miata diagnostics: always be checking battery

@eel-is-zero-people-and-didn-t-kill-svending said in AI can't into grammar:

have to say that last one is great

Not least because the tie-downs seem to be made of that Freudianly disturbing automated charging serpent Tesla field tested a few years ago...

@Dr_Watson that's true, I suppose. Higher quality dash cams can be very expensive.

@Shop-Teacher I once saw a stat that said Michigan had a 25% drunk driving rate on Friday and Saturday nights. I didn't doubt it.

@farscythe
Not where I am, but the gig cities. They are problematic.

@Urambo-Tauro same building. Left down the hall to the left.

@Exage03040 Only one unmarked Tahoe so far! And a Challenger that wanted to race.

Did you smoke him?

@jminer super-duper rotten, I believe the customer listened to sound advice and found a better one of whatever it is to start the project with. It's so nice when car dudes listen to sage advice.

@bbg2d Oh man, that's a rough night/morning!

My wife makes brussel sprouts and bacon, but she makes them fresh.

@Alfalfa that’s less cool

@Cash-Rewards said in New bike day, n+2:

Needs a tune up,

When taking a bike to a shop find out what specific things will be taken care of under the "tune up". Some will do very little..
Old bikes usually need bearings serviced.

@MM54 @i86hotdogs if it’s still around bring it to an oppo rallyx

@TAE

As others mentioned, he likely wouldn’t hold up three fingers like this.

Mmmmm.

Now to let them dry out.

@Arch-Duke-Maxyenko

I've literally just watched that....

@Brickman I can't help but feel that the front of that LEGO delivery truck is a bit too narrow (would be better 7 studs wide, though that's asking a bit much from a CITY set), but I dig the use of minifig seats as front fenders on the forklift in that set. That is a fantastic forklift build.

@415s30 It is not a very descriptive name. It’s computer software (database) that run in the cloud (AWS, Azure, Google). Basically, just another tech company.

Well the rumors seem to be true so far, now:

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Newey may even "work immediately on the 2026 car, with no restrictions regarding gardening leave",

@Exage03040 @doodon2whls Yamaha appears to be working on a system, along with the new Honda e-Clutch that may be better than DCT if it's able to be widely retrofitted.

@davesaddiction There are a couple euro options I would like to have, but I've been out of space since I hit 3 cars, so...

@TheJWT very very rad!
