this guy's schtick is that cars should be driven because they're horrible stores of value. (even ye olde GNXs and the like underperform the stock market, and most end up being tremendous losses of money.)

Those things might very well be the low point of american industrial design. If it weren’t for its utility, the aztec would probably take the honours.

I dunno... there was some pretty epic horseshit designed in the 70's as well.

That 1998 is just different sheet metal that was put on the chassis designed in 1969

I think the amount of space for it's size and layout is better than pretty much anything modern.
Amazing how much room you gain without pointless gadgetry for the sake of gadgetry.

Any auto made in any level of mass production is a waste if not used in my opinion.

Odd limited models, are a different story but even then, the ones really valuable are not things anyone on here can afford.

Ferrari 250 McLaren F1 Mercedes CLK-GTR Toyota Tacoma, etc.

Tacoma sellers everywhere know what they've got eh

Top speed up to Loveland might take a while, but you wouldn't have to wait in traffic.

They probably didn't want to pay the thousands of dollars they charge at convention centers to lag things into the floor.

That logic would be understandable for a 2 post lift but not for a freestanding 4 post

With no triangulation there will be very little lateral stability. You can see it bent at the corners and the one foot you can see is not bolted down. Rectangles "U shapes" are not strong. Probably not a bad product just a moron marketing type who didn't know how to properly setup the product.

Also why you are supposed to install sheathing prior to adding second stories when building a house.

Stainless steel metal absorbs?........ the fuck?

I think ‘absorbs’ might not be the correct word here.

(It absolutely isn’t.)

 

[4xBoy]

Seeing pictures of the dumpster rusting, I can imagine that the wrap would hold moisture in and that would trash the finish.

 

[jimmydean]

I think the matte finish adheres better than a painted or even polished surface.

I avoid logging trucks like the plague. Loaded by meth, maintained by meth, driven by meth.
