almost did that before my wedding years ago, in the end we just took a D90 through some trails for a day

Why can't we get cool things in the US:

You can. You just need to find one 25 years old, or become foreign diplomat, or become a smuggler.

FYI, HAM operators... Vanity call signs are now free in case you want to change to something that has meaning to you.

I think I may need to redesigned my drawer sleeper platform:

Cool video.

@Izzyandsue if Tactegra is looking for a lean consultant to clear away some of the Australian muda, just let me know...

 

[izzyandsue]

Looks pretty cool video, nice to see a CMM at work again, I think the video is to show the amount of craftmanship that goes into them. But looks like lean manufacturing hasn't caught up in Oz yet.

Field trip!

Toyota SEMA Edition TRD Land Cruiser Is a Thing

 

[izzyandsue]

Company car switching time, test drove a Tourag TDI, loved the low end torque, pick up power, comfort and electronics. Got a price, waited over night to decide (we are getting 2), and the wonderful EPA puts a stop-sell order on all VW large diesels (Porshce and Audi too). 8 hours, 8 short hours and I would have a coveted legal but illegal TDI.... Oh well, looking at gassers now.

Damn. VW screwed you.

Down with the man!
Rise up my brothers and we'll all own 70s with 4.5 litre Turbo-diesel V8s.
Let the revolution begin!
Viva la revolucion!

So you're buying Bruno AND the LV?

That would explain the dark bushy mustache...

 

[RedHeadedStepChild]

I meant, "The Man"

Ah, I see.
I was thinking of this "The Man".

 

[lt1fire]

No, "the man" did it. VW is innocent, they are being framed. Their exhaust smells like warm chocolate chip cookies. But regardless, the TDI doesnt make financial sense for the mpg differential during the lease period. Only difference is when zombies attack and gas runs out, I can use kerosene and keep driving. Like Bruno would have....

I got good news for you then..... To run a VW tdi and burn those kind of fuels you will need a pre 99 tdi. Nice and cheap.... Try to run those fuels in anything newer and you'll get to know your VW mechanic really well..... Or in your the business end of a Zombie

 

[tgadd]

Gas ones?

 

[RedHeadedStepChild]

That brings a philosophical question, do Zombies s***? If they don't, then they don't digest and can't keep eating, right? So there is an upper bound to the zombie apocalypse!

I always appreciate it when people take the time to actually think deeply about the important issues of our times.

 

[izzyandsue]

Yup, gassers. They found 2 "perfect" color combos, Lux models with Drivers Assist packages. One black and tan, one grey and black. Had 3 dealers bid, the one we have been buying from in the past came with a great deal. The V6 is not bad, we had Passats with those and they move with purpose.

You can thank me later Jim, I might have well saved humanity (in the future) and Brad Pitt. Those in charge don't ask the basic questions....
