If ever there has been a time to call for an emergency naked bike ride, this is it.

AMG has been the high performance division of Mercedes since 1993, after having built race engines since 1967.

BMW M is the same kind of subsidiary, having started in 1976.

Cadillac's V-series is a high performance designation for those vehicles, tuned by the General Motors Performance division, today referred to as Chevrolet Performance. That division began as General Motors Performance Parts in 1967.

The Dodge Dart is a vehicle nameplate that started in the 1960 model year as a "lower priced full size model" - while being the smallest full size Dodge - then changing to mid size in 1962, then "compact" (for the time) from 1963 to 1976. A great deal of the history of the Dodge Dart is as an economy car. Of course, the 1960s and 70s had V8s available, with the 1968 L023 with a 426 Hemi as a standout, but the slant 6 was the bread and butter of the Dart through its entire early production run.

The Ford F-150 Lightning is a nameplate for the EV F-150 introduced in mid 2021.

At least you were right about the Mustang, though.

There's only so many different ways you can accomplish "people can post things for other people to see and respond to".

Of course. That's the point.

God damn that is on point.

I'm not saying you shouldn't bring weapons to a protest. I am saying you should be aware of the potential consequences of doing so.

A guy I work with is in Germany. He came to the US for a work meeting. He intended to stay in the US for another week and a half, with plans to rent a car and drive ... basically this route. With all sorts of sightseeing and tourist stops along the way.

Suffice it to say that he did not.

I do love me some rectangle ham.

I would rather receive free mangoes and eat nothing but mangoes.

Many states make it illegal to bring any kind of weapon to a protest.

It's almost like the market for SUVs is much broader than for two seater sports cars (because ain't nobody riding comfortably in the back of a pony Mustang).

It doesn't need to be a good answer. It just needs to be an answer.
