  1. Don't have a tablet, but I do visit with my Galaxy S2 regularly (like right now), and prefer to use the desk top over the mobile browser on just about any site that gives the option, the mobile stuff just about everywhere seems pretty much useless.
  2. And apparently that will be coming to our tv's next?!
  3. Dad has the best idea, take it in a lump sum and move to Austraila for a few years to get away from all our new "relatives" Then; Next would be bank accounts, spread over different banks local just in case something goes wrong with one of the banks, the other money is safe. Pay off all of our bills Get my folks a new Town and Country and Dad a SRT8 Grand Cherokee My Sister a Hemi Challenger Probably end up with a Jay Leno like car collection.......but maybe without the more expensive cars. Get myself a house in the middle of nowhere with a huge garage/shop Buy my folks a place in Branson and do something to fix up their house here Get my sister her own place make sure there's money set aside to pay for all of those properties
  4. Yup, Capt. Jack! Got hooked on Dr. Who a few years back while Tennent was still the Doctor. BTW, you'll probably want to watch NCIS tuesday night. Looks like Alex Kingston will be in it and her character in it will be very Dr. River Song like!
  5. That's how I knew of him, never got into Dallas. Interesting, where did you find the pictures of John Barrowman with those two?
  6. Nah, afraid the Ad says it has the factory 383 still in it Brian.
  7. I kinda consider two of those movies as part of the TV Show, the other movie was more of an abomination and insult than a movie to me
  8. That's probably pretty realistic considering how many they went through between the TV Show and Movie
  9. Don't know if you've ever worker retail, but there have been times I've wondered how people were able to dress themselves in the morning before coming into some of the stores I've worked in, let alone figured out how to operate a motor vehicle enough to get there. And that goes for both customers and co-workers!
  10. That is very, very awesome!!!!
  11. All that for yet another fat, forgetable, wanna-be station wagon?
  12. The Rampage in the first post must be restored, that truck is way nicer than any Rampage I have ever seen in person!!!
  13. #3 is one of the Blastolene machines. It's built by the same guy who built Pissed Off Pete, Blastoline Special/Leno's Tank Car, and B-702.
  14. Numbers 1 and 3 are probably measured in Smiles Per Gallon.......I think #2 is measured in Tokes Per Gallon
  15. I just finally got a chance to look at their website more closely and apparently the GM based trucks are powered by the 4.3l V-6 which still is in the sub 200 horse range. They'll also convert Ford trucks and Rams......if they use those respective brand's V-6 engines when converting their trucks, the Ford 3.7l V-6 and Pentastar could make for a couple very potent gen-sets
  16. I imagine that range will fall off, that 400 mile range is both electric and gas and to get that back is as simple as a trip to the gas station. Pulling power shouldn't be a problem either with how electric motors make their power....and there's now no 4L60 to grenade either
  17. Depending how how I go to and from work, I have seen Astin-Martins, Ferraris, Lambos, Porsches , Maseratis, lots of BMWs and Mercs, even a few Bentlys!
  18. Hopefully they will have an actual service center, maybe take over an old Sears that had service bays for a store and service center
  19. Well, yea it kinda does. It's at least built on good, solid underpinnings.
  20. Well, if the house is wired correctly for a heavy load, that won't be a problem...........Now other stuff in the garage catches fire while it's in there charging, that could still be a problem!
  21. Looks great so far, are you going to chop it when you finish the rest of the body mods?
  22. Yup, basically it's a lot like the Volt.........but on a much more useable work truck platform
  23. I saw a segment on these guys on Leno's Garage, apparently Bob Lutz, formerly of both General Motors and Chrysler Corporation, is even involved with the company! http://www.viamotors.com/ http://green.autoblog.com/2012/01/13/via-motors-introduces-plug-in-work-vehicles/ I do like the power outlets that can be used to power a home in an emergency, that would have been quite handy to have had around here the week of the 4th of July, we had no power here at home for a couple days and there were places that had no power for most of the week. These vehicles in a place that has just had a natural disaster could be invaluable during the cleanup and recovery efforts!
  24. I figured on showing up next week :lol: :lol:
