  1. Automation of manual processes can have unintended side effects.
  2. Minefield could be a hazardous place to walk.
  3. Looking forward to this, looks better than the Taycan IMO.. I am surprised that we haven't had EV kits before now...a Tesla Model S or X would have been nice..maybe licensing issues.
  4. Just a rebox of the Lindberg tooling. Can’t imagine anything has changed as far as the tooling.
  5. They are very nice. I had preordered a couple sets from the USPS website a while back, also got a couple ones on matts to frame for my office (the Cougar and Mustang).
  6. Beautiful build..love those old Johans
  7. And in recent years they have consolidated..the dealer in Phoenix I bought my current Jeep at is a Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram franchise, while my local one here in Cleveland bills itself as Chrysler Ram Jeep Dodge store.
  8. The dealership in Colorado Springs where I bought my ‘00 Grand Cherokee back in ‘00 was a Chrysler Plymouth Jeep dealer…
  9. Inconceivable!
  10. Reminds me of how a 1/64th diecast Hudson Hornet was named as a 'Chrysler Hudson' on the packaging maybe 20 years ago... Racing Champions Mint brand IIRC... licensing, I guess...
  11. In olden days, the dealerships were branded Chrysler-Plymouth, IIRC.
  12. I like the look. Looking forward to this kit. My favorite Z was the ‘90s 300ZX (got the Tamiya kits of those).
  13. I have it on DVD, probably haven’t watched it in 20 years. I remember seeing it in the theatre, fun popcorn film. Talledega Nights is a lot of fun also.
  14. The Lindberg ‘67 was last out 6 years ago, they probably are reissuing it with AMT retro style box art like they are doing with the ‘66 Chevelle.
  15. Sounds like an S with Plaid mode. They are quite fast, more so than an S with Ludicrous mode.
  16. There are many things
  17. cattle need emission controls.
  18. I saw a lot like that in AZ, though they often had oxidized paint and sun-damaged plastics.
  19. When I do see 20 yr old vehicles around here (NE Ohio) they are often worn out or rusty. Don’t see that many out and about in good shape.
  20. My understanding is 'clean' coal is a marketing myth pushed by Big Coal and the corrupt politicians they own. Nothing new, there have been articles about it for years..for example: https://e360.yale.edu/features/the_myth_of_clean_coal https://cer.org.za/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Myth-of-Clean-Coal-Fact-Sheet_Final_November-2018.pdf https://www.greenamerica.org/fight-dirty-energy/amazon-build-cleaner-cloud/coal-why-it-dirty
  21. No attack, just stating the obvious.
  22. Yeah, riiiighht..if you are such a self-important know it all, then why don't you get a job with one of the automakers rather than hanging out here?
  23. Yeah, that is what I figure it will be... the interesting thing is, Datsun actually had a L'il Hustler trim package in 1:1 back then...MPC kind of misused the name for their street rod truck kit.
  24. Wingdings are preferable to comic sans, though my favorite is Helvetica--even watched the documentary.
