    That one time Genesis GV80 park assist kicked me out of the vehicle 😳😂

    Had that problem in Germany for a bit as the other tenant (American Teacher) using the garage was in the spot near the exit door to the house and liked a wide berth to open her door and go through that door, She had a first gen S40, a Dutch-built Volvo sharing its chassis/build site with a...

    2025 Ram 1500 coverage

    So regular varies around the country, but the testing for the mileage to get it EPA certified probably occurs at the Chelsea Proving Grounds, so 87 octane used to get the fuel mileage. My question (which may make for some content when you get your SO SST) is what fuel grade was used to obtain...

    "I'm Sorry Jill, you are not trusted to park" - Hal, err Genesis GV80 Definitely artificial, but not intelligence...Wants you to leave your locked vehicle...In Chicago

    Fair enough; put in the EPA ruling itself to provide context.

    Hertz CEO Resigns After Tesla Fiasco

    Not sure who this was directed at but reporting an impending policy change (which did happen today) is not "Hating on rules and regulations mandated by the government." Sure, implementing instructions on preventing child labor, fire safety, codes, civil engineering standards, Lead paint...

    YouTube frustration lately

    Maybe if they weren't so spaced out, they would spend their money wisely...Not being callous, just some inside joking from an "air breather" guy. All kidding aside, point well made; an E-3 to E-5 Guardian (USSF equivalent term to Soldier, Sailor, Airman, Marine, and Coast Guardsmen) should be...

    Hertz CEO Resigns After Tesla Fiasco

    I try to avoid anything with a tone of political, so this was the least D/R I could find (the last paragraph is the most partisan), but as early as tomorrow, new mandates will be coming out. I don't believe they are crumbling in the policy sense (the market appears to be is a different story)...

    Semper Fi. 2024 Tundra Limited....questions for ya!

    Nowhere near as many people have seen this movie (The Final Countdown) and I like the F-14 flying in this much better. Lots of backstory too, including a prank the demo Naval Aviators pulled on the female lead, Katherine Ross.

    Damn. Thought I had it. (Pickup size growth)

    Yeah, I was little Tongue in Cheek with the "tough military pickups and SUVs?" The M-1008 in temperate climate (Southeast Turkey) worked pretty good, but they were factory fresh...M-1009s in desert with a few years on them were much worse.

    3rd Gen Engine Failures

    Thanks. I went looking for Tundra Particulate Filter and came up with nothing...Dang Canadians always screwing things up ;) Sad part, I remember seeing both of the (real) guys play.

    3rd Gen Engine Failures

    Maybe, but I think this powertrain application is TNGA-F specific and both the Tundra and LC are on it. This is also the reason the Sequoia lost it's IRS this generation, global platform rationalization.

    3rd Gen Engine Failures

    https://newsroom.toyota.eu/world-premiere-of-the-all-new-toyota-land-cruiser-300-series/ Yes, the Tundra is not in Europe but the 3.5LTurbo /10 speed powertrain is found in the new 300 series Land Cruiser Petrol sold in the EU, UK, etc. So it is uneconomical to make two different power packs...
