Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

I am not sure I like driving this thing fast. The seats have less than zero lateral support; the front seats may be the worst seats I have ever had in any car. My office chair has more lateral support. I think I need a six-point harness before I'll feel comfortable. Or perhaps race buckets. I wonde...

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

Yeah the seemingly never ending tank on the diesel is really nice. Always bugs me that diesel goes up as fast as gas these days (didn't used to be that way thanks to the trucker unions/lobbies), but does not start dropping when gas does. If I were driving your P!g that 400 miles would probably be cl...

Didn't it spend 2+ years in the body shop? I would use that as an excuse.
You're probably not far off and that was when I was still going into an office semi regularly, so you're not wrong...

Whachu talkin' bout Willis!?

That's more miles than my 2005 C4S has. You need to slow your roll. You're wearing that thing out.
Dude. Diesels don't start breaking in until the 50-75k mark.

Hhhmmm... I have always thought he was a dirtbag. Thanks for providing further proof. For as anti Elon as I am now, I don't think he started off "bad". I never like PayPal under him as it was way to predatory (and it's only slightly better now), but I didn't particularly think I'll of him...

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

There is a lot of hype around the Muskrat, most of it perpetuated by him. If you really look into his history at PayPal, Tesla, SpaceX, Boring Company, and now Twitter there is a clear pattern of abusing his employees and taking credit for things he didn't do (e.g. he ain't the founder of Tesla).
