I've been using a front end loader lately that has a habit of doing the same thing just when you least expect it. Not quite on the same level as a GT3 cup car, but it still cranks up the excitement a notch or two.
I recommend it if you have the time and enjoy the work

The ROI is probably a couple years if you spend that much to do just oil changes and tire rotations. On the other hand you could probably break even on just a couple brake jobs.

I miss the days when folks had to watch the Super Bowl to see Super Bowl ads. It brought a whole different demographic to the average Super Bowl party.

But, I also miss beer bottles with helmets playing football during commercial breaks. Life's full of little disappointments like that.

You win 1 thumbs up for your incredible timing.
Lotus Esprit Turbo, my good man. With special amenities by Q division.
I prefer to find the .dll containing the splash screen image using Resource Hacker and replace it with a modified version. Then I'm more amused than annoyed when I start those programs.

I haven't done this with MS Office programs though, because the splash screens aren't displayed for a terribly long time.

You're not far off, they have a pair of video cameras mounted to the last boom section pointed at the work tool. There's a video monitor in the cab so the operator gets a fairly close-up view of the destruction.
That one's probably around 10 (it's a 120' boom). However, there are high reach demolition conversions in operation with anywhere from 80' to 190' vertical reach.
The way we do it out here in the wild west you don't have to worry about a 12 story fall in a 30 ton excavator.
It doesn't matter… you're going to WANT it no matter what.
Remember in Back to the Future, when they went to 2015 and all the cars looked ultra futuristic at first but then you realized that they just put a body kit on an 85 Ford Probe?
That's how I feel about this, Will.I.Am is both years ahead and years behind his time all at once.
Beats is the Bose for those who are too young to know of John Tesh or Paul Harvey.
For contrast, here's the world's least secret entrance. Somewhat less auspicious, so much so in fact that I can tell you exactly where it is: [www.secretcamprvpark.com]
Portland, OR area… That's not actually my picture though, my engine is much less cleaned up. It's a 1.7L bus block w/ crank and cam. I've already stripped the cooling, sold the heads, removed the jugs, pistons, and rods. Technically it's rebuildable (typical "ran-when-pulled" story) but it's been opened up and sitting outside a long time now.
I'd recommend a VW Type 4 (or Porsche 914, for the snobbish). Mostly because I'll give it to you free (just pay shipping) as a thank you for relieving me of my last air cooled VW part.
It'd definitely have to be something I wouldn't mind seeing beaten with a splitting maul then set on fire in the front yard… so my answer is Smart ForTwo.

Even Lamborghini is working on fuel economy, in a 2 minute trip they only needed 1 fueling stop.
