    STUPID IDEA

    Read about this guy in the news. Figures. There once was a Cyber Truck from Nantucket...

    Great Idea for that Busy Weekend BBQ Chef

    Single fuel. Dual purpose.

    Cotton Clothing?

    Everest, south pole, Donner Pass...um... Theres a place for cotton for sure. I love it. Have many clothes made of it. Someone else said hot and dry, I agree. Just, if I'm going out into the cold and theres a chance I'll could get wet, I stay mostly clear of it

    Cotton kills. Most of those explorers were wool. Wool is super

    Would an Extra $5,000+ Make a Difference?

    Eh...Sony came out with Beta Max. Way better quality than VHS. Sony also had proprietary MMX (MMS?) Sticks like the SD cards, and those are the only memory sticks Sony cameras would take. Apple operates like this, too.

    They did it through communism. Kinda forced the issue. We are busy trying to sus out which capitalist will come up with the best system so we can all get the third best system because they bid the lowest

    STUPID IDEA

    GMC! Engine was moved to mid frame for the jumps by making a door in the bed exactly opposite the fuel filler door, sliding the engine in there, right behind the cab. That way it wasnt nose-diving hard right off the ramp

    STUPID IDEA

    That Tango and Cash van, actually built on the GMT400, 1990's version of the full size Chevy Blazer Silverado 5.7 liter. They took out the windshield and put an 80's Monte Carlo Aero edition rear window in front. Attached a couple rocket launchers and voi la!

    STUPID IDEA

    I like the two-tone tan and brown. Very late 1970's/ early 1980's warm tones

    STUPID IDEA

    I just want to see Conan the Barbarian or Elvira Mistress of the Dark airbrushed on the side, in some fantastical scene

    STUPID IDEA

    ah...memories of the 1970's and my parents reminding all of us kids to be so very leery of those van drivers. Then the A-Team came out on TV and parents weren't sure what was worse

    STUPID IDEA

    Same reason that pickup truck guys who have a camper shell on the bed dont usually have stuff hanging off the sides: there's covered, protected, dry space inside. More so in a van, and it can be all accessed from inside but why put anything outside and expose it to the elements if you dont...

    Offroad jacks... really?

    Thank you. There was one of these in every Pinto, Comaro, Thunderbird, Impala, and Cordoba back in the '70's.

    Would not make a difference to me. Makes a 70 thousand dollar truck into a 65 thousand dollar truck. Still too rich for my blood

    EV acceptance is peaking

    Agree with almost all of that. I imagine the possibility of a Jerry Can being replaced by a similarly sized jump box. But the 500 mile stat you mention? What truck has that now? Meh, practically none. My GMC Sierra 5 3 liter gets 420 on the regular (see what I did there?). More if I'm...
