"Yes, since May 1, 2018, all new vehicles under 10,000 pounds sold in the US are required to have a backup camera. This federal regulation mandated by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) aims to reduce backover accidents. "


This is the dumbest fckng thing ever. More electronics on an automobile is just more expense and more shit to malfunction.  And that's why cars cost as much as houses should.

Anything to make a vehicle more expensive.

I'm going to get a Dodge Ram Promaster. Fck Turkmobiles.

My '73 Ford Econoline bit the dust when I was hit by a train. Luckily, my tools weren't damaged.

I’m in my wife’s car so I look like a boss. As I was driving in, I slowed down where they’re roughing, rolled down the window and yelled “La Migra ! “ and watched them scatter like cockroaches. I thought Trump put an embargo on Mexicans.

Poor John Denver ski'd into a tree. Oh wait...That was Sonny Bono. I always get those two mixed up because one is short and Italian and the other is completely different. Poor Sonny.  John Denver hang glided into the side of a mountain.  They're both a couple of saps if you ask me. Sonny must be from Michigan. I was friends with his cousin Aldo.

My buddy had one. We had no where to go so we’d just get a case of Goebel and drive around all night drinking.

Working with this old dago is nuts. Now I'm doing it - staircases, railings, banisters  all for stain. The phrase "for stain" makes a finish carpenter's blood run cold; means you actually have to do your job. By Christmas I'm going to be a hot asset to all of these dago builders that are speed-building subdivisions in farm country up here. Now they all know me.

Lol. No painters putty or caulk for those jobs. I put in a stair railing in my next door neighbor's house back north. Straight cuts. Nothing fancy.

The lady across the street told the people that live a couple of houses down from me that they needed to start taking care of their dog. The poor dog had wound its chain around the tree in the sun.... Had no water and no food for a couple of days... So she went over and fed the dog and gave it some water. So then the people all came out and cursed her out and screamed at her and told her they were going to call the cops on her.. she said go ahead... I'll just wait here... After their kids cursed her out with every foul name you can think of they went back inside and never did call the cops...

Europe is gearing up for war with Russia. China is basically threatening the U.S. what could go wrong?
Europeans don't have the balls to fight Rhode Island. There will be no war. China's not going to attack their biggest customer and kill the cash cow. They will do what they do best which is threaten. They have like 400 nukes we have 5500 nukes. That math don't add up for China.
