That amount of torque makes me moist.

It will be the DC to Boston corridor plus California/Oregon/Washington with a quick move into Nevada/Arizona

Chattanooga is going to be building a significant portion of the VW lineup at this rate.

I think a Z4 with a BMW nose would sell better than a Z4 with a Toyota nose. I still wonder how they will price the Supra, I feel like they will price it too high.

Not true, Hydrofoils can turn very well on the water and this seems to do the same thing. Much like a Hydroplane race boat, less than 10% of the boat actually in the water but very stable at turning at high speeds.

Q: How do you stop an Italian person from talking? A: You tie their hands behind their back.

They are at least building a family consistent style. Thanks for pointing that out Drew!

Things only people from New Jersey get: 1. Our official mascot should be the holy trinity of pork roll, egg and cheese (aka the Taylor ham sandwich). Don’t knock it ’til you’ve tried one. 2. We have a peculiar combination of pride and self-loathing about our state identity. 3. We know every which way to commute from New Jersey to Manhattan. 4. We define where we live based on turnpike (or parkway) exits. 5. And by malls. Are you near Cherry Hill, Bridgewater, Palisades, Freehold Raceway or Short Hills? 6. No one calls it “Joisey.” 7. But some of us do have some funny pronunciation. Repeat after us: wudder (water) and begel (bagel). 8. We don’t know how to pump our own gas. And we’re not sorry about it. 9. In some places, people hang out at coffee shops. We hang out at diners. 10. New Yorkers can have their $4 lattes. We’ll take Wawa coffee (and hoagies) any day. 11. North and South Jersey might as well be different states. And Central Jersey has an identity crisis. 12. No, that’s not raw sewage you’re smelling. It’s just Elizabeth. 13. It’s down the shore, people. And no, we’re not talking about that reality show that ruined our rep forever. 14. Cape May is Victorian perfection. 15. It’s where we get our hoagies delivered to us right on the beach. 16. We don’t like Bennys and Shoobies (you know…tourists from NY and PA) crowding our beaches in the summer. 17. But we’re happy to play host to the Jets and the Giants at East Rutherford’s MetLife Stadium. 18. In New Jersey, if it moves, there’s a tax on it. Except clothes. So we buy a lot of them. 19. We don’t really believe in the Jersey Devil…but Chris Christie is real. 20. But the Pine Barrens are most definitely haunted. 21. And our Garden State peaches, tomatoes and blueberries are undoubtedly the best in the country. 22. We know better than to make left turns. That’s what jug handles are for. 23. Speaking of jug handles, they’re a rite of passage. And boy is it fun watching out-of-towners trying to figure them out. 24. It’s impossible to avoid toll roads. That’s why we all have EZ-Pass. 25. Atlantic City should be reserved exclusively for bachelorette parties…and the Miss America pageant. 26. We’re not all mobsters and corrupt politicians, as The Sopranos and Boardwalk Empire might have you believe. 27. But we do know a lot of guys named Tony. 28. Snooki isn’t actually from NJ. 29. Bruce Springsteen is. He’s called “The Boss” for a reason. 30. And we’ll always heart Bon Jovi

PNW Humor: Policeman: Lady, what gear were you in at the moment of the crash impact? Oregonian: Gear? Oh, Nike of course! (Beaverton, Oregon is the corporate headquarters of Nike). ________________ A newcomer to Portland arrives on a rainy day. She gets up the next day and it’s raining. It also rains the day after that, and the day after that. She goes out to lunch and sees a young kid and, out of despair, asks, ”Hey, kid, does it ever stop raining around here?” The kid says, ”How should I know? I’m only 8.” ________________ Question: What do you call two straight days of rain in Portland? Answer: A weekend. ________________ It only rains twice a year in Portland: October through April and May through June. ________________ Question: What does daylight-saving time mean in Portland? Answer: An extra hour of rain. ________________ What did the Portland native say to the Pillsbury Doughboy? Answer: Nice tan. ________________ A curious fellow died one day and found himself in limbo waiting in a long, long line for judgment. As he stood there, he noticed that some souls were allowed to march right through the gates of heaven. Others were led over to Satan, who threw them into a lake of fire. Every so often, instead of hurling a poor soul into the fire, Satan would toss him or her to one side. After watching Satan do this several times, the fellow’s curiosity got the better of him. He strolled over and tapped Old Nick on the shoulder. “Excuse me, there, Your Darkness,” he said. “I’m waiting in line for judgment, and I couldn’t help wondering why you are tossing some people aside instead of flinging them into the fires of hell with the others?” “Ah,” Satan said with a grin. “Those are Portlanders. I’m letting them dry out so they’ll burn.” ________________ “I can’t believe it,” said the tourist. “I’ve been here in Portland an entire week and it’s done nothing but rain. When do you have summer here?” “Well, that’s hard to say,” replied the local. “Last year, it was on a Wednesday.”
