  1. She lives in Dallas and is always making videos from her basement, wearing a stocking cap. Go figure. But she is absolutely right about Tesla. Trump wants Canadian aircraft to quit flying because....things....however, a huge part of American airline fleet is either Airbus or Canadian/Brazilian made. And even the 787 Dreamliner has a lot of imported parts. I guess Passenger rail comes back and Greyhound scores bigly.
  2. One of the places I ride...not my video...but where I roll....
  3. They are buying more Airbus, and changing things around. I think more fleets worldwide will buy more and more Airbus, but Airbus is supply constrained. That's the only thing saving Boeing.
  4. Loki, the god of chaos, never ends it for humans who are willfully stupid, but rather inhibits their stupidity so it is never terminal. People just keep enacting the means of their own suffering.
  5. Yeah, the Maverick seems like a good little truck, my Ranger has been fantastic, but thinking Toyota for the next vehicle for a lot of reasons. Terminal rot inside of Ford being one of them. ...I see the US eventually have to become more urban, and every prices can't stay cheap forever. At that point, the legacy Japan, Korea and China have in building affordable vehicles on an EV chassis will make Ford as obsolete as a steam locomotive or typewriter. Still absolutely unsold on the reliability of Kia ICE, and would probably avoid Kia EV based on ICE reliability. Although I really like Kia EV products. There is poetic justice with Ford and GM collapsing in terms of product quality alongside the United States cratering, ethically and legally. We will have a much messier, more rapid fall than Rome.
  6. Can you say Chinese Century fast enough, or often enough...how about Chinese millennium? At this point, legacy automakers are legacy automakers. Putting a trillion dollars into exec pay rather than R and D will end well for them. Loki, not the former poster, the god of chaos is proud of the chaos he lets humans create for themselves.
  7. At this point (Every rant from Olds Hurst, every rant I have made here in the last 20 years, every rant Noam Chomsky has made, every rant ever made about America) has been proven to be wildly true. But Buffet is part of our corrupt system in that he is American. I can't dunk on everything American m BNSF is an amazing railroad and I think Buffet owns part of it. Overall though...the country just needs to die and be replaced by something else. Its beyond redemption. I fully expect to have ICE in Montreal shooting Sikhs because they think they are Muslim. Don't kid yourself on how deep this stupid cycle is. The United States is beyond moral redemption, and needs to die and be replaced with something else. I did my part! The United States is vile, it needs to die and be replaced with something else. Hopefully. The United States is beyond moral redemption, it needs to die and be replaced with something else.
  8. He was my age.
  9. A bunch of Asian and Hawaiian, probably quie a few with black DNA. Not a whole lot of black folk in Hawaii....but California...I bet so.
  10. The stupidity deepens... We are going to alienate everyone...!
  11. Some days I miss being a young man, that was very much part of it. And will continue to do so. That and E bikes, E lawn mowers, E snow blowers. In Ohio, I work in facilities for a university. We got rid of our gas powered snow blowers and got electric ones. Much quieter, never fail to start on a cold morning, no explosive gas sitting around, don't need to keep a bunch of gas on hand for them, lighter, cleaner (no grease or oil, etc.) Amazon around here is all E delivery vehicles. The paradigm shift is happening, and we see this overseas on other markets, where electric cars are rapidly replacing EV's. This is why I see the demise of domestics (among other issues). When the inevitable happens and the US and Canada do open the door to Chinese EV's, they will be so far ahead of what US automakers are making that it will be like watching the typewriter business or the buggy business go away as the new technology rushes in like a flood.
  12. Exactly why you don't necessarily want a vintage car. Modern cars MUCH safer.
  13. We have done generational damage to the United States, and it won't get better in our lifetime. Excellent. Running thicker oil and changing regularly works well for me.
  14. If only we could have Medicare for all. If anyone has any intelligent commentary on how the job market is affecting auto sales, I am all ears.
  15. I would rather have EV than a turbo 4, although the Ranger has done well for itself. About to turn 126K, it just keeps on trucking. Didn't even know they made bikes in the USA anymore.
  16. I absolutely love the design on this, and out of the park home run IMHO.
  17. I have had a couple of amazing black cats. The planes we use to fly into huricanes are decades old... They regularly go through checks where the whole interior is stripped out and the whole plane is inspected. I feel fine flying on a 25 year old aircraft. That being said, In Hawaii a roof blew off of a plane once, a stewardess got blown out of the plane, but everyone else was buckled in, landed fine. Plane obviously never flew again, was a Boeing 737. But that plane had a ton of cycles, as it was used on very short haul flights.
  18. Hypnotic ride through Mexico City.
