I think spookiness is talking about having to parallel park with the unwashed masses rather than your parking skill. :) I still see some Chicagoans park “by braille” and they don’t even have the courtesy to leave a note behind after leaving a mark on someone else’s bumper. Read more

Thank you! There are way too many questions than answers thus far. The 737 has enough redundancies that it seems implausible that the aircraft post-bird strike was somehow controllable down to the runway, but not controllable enough to deploy the gear (which has a manual gravity drop function) or the flaps, which also… Read more

In this case, it means the aircraft, a Van’s Aircraft RV-10, is a homebuilt. Here’s a decent explanation from Controller.com: Read more

In Chicago, a writer in an Uber went up against another driving a personal car and a third taking the train. The results were even more pro-transit — the train took 64 minutes, while the Uber took 92 and the personal vehicle 100. Read more

Ugh, why couldn’t the MAGA civil war happen back in October or early November or something? Oh, who am I kidding, they would have still voted Trump, anyway... Read more

Wonder if Bradley, Mercedes or one of your readers would let you have a bike tasting?

I would love that! lol It has been done before in the UK:

I wrote about it over at the “other site.” I haven’t worked here in over two years, but I’m still a daily reader. :) Yes, it’s crazy fun! Slow, but crazy fun! Read more

By my count, the entire Jalop staff has 19 vehicles, not including vehicles owned by spouses. Wait a minute... Checks inventory... Read more

Also, Colorado was looking to ban way more than Keis. It also targeted surplus military vehicles (unless the owner was a government entity) and vintage military vehicles. Read more

A couple of notes. The Drive was not the first to report this. The poster of that reddit thread reached out to me directly hours before the Drive posted. :) Read more

It should be noted that we didn’t get the V10 TDI in the Phaeton. If you wanted the V10 TDI in America you had to buy a Touareg like I did. Read more

You just tie your big airship to a building and hope it’s still there in the morning. lol Read more

This whole thing is stupid. There’s almost nobody who wants to pay more money to get somewhere slower. The people who are sick of tiny airplane seats and have money will just upgrade to first class, not book a ride on a luxury airship that’s slower than their car. Read more

I have no idea what that means. I broke up with her after a few months. We just weren't even close to being in the same place in life or even on the same page in the bedroom either. Hope she's doing well! Read more

I’ve somehow seen worse: A $2,000/mo payment on a then-new Challenger Scat Pack on a several-year loan. Most of the payment had nothing to do with the car itself. What gives? Well, the girl I was dating had a knack for driving fast cars, but never actually making more than a few months of payments. Her previous cars… Read more

My dad once told me “its better to stay warm than have to get warm”.

That being said, one year I did “darkside” a maxi-scooter with car snow tires. It was entertaining how much traction I had, but I don’t recommend it. I would say to go with studs, but they’re almost certainly illegal for road use where you live. Read more

I’ve been riding every winter since I got my license in 2018. I still do things the old-school way. I bundle up in LOTS of layers and hit the tarmac looking like I ate an entire cow or something. But, I do stay pretty toasty. I’m looking forward to seeing how your approach works!
