BINGO! I was scared to death like you before getting my 97GTS, especially with a lack of ABS. 5 years later without getting myself killed, I'm still VERY aware when I drive, but I see that now as being "one" with the car. It's very zen actually. This isn't a car you drive while eating, making...
The Viper is deceptively cheap to maintain. It's simplicity makes it easy to do a lot of the work yourself if you're inclined to do so. I get a couple oil changes a year for around $150 each. The transmission is the same as the Vette, so many places can work on them. The body may cost a bit to...
If you're scared to drive a Viper, you'll be just fine! It's the idiots that think they can drive anything that get into these freak accidents. If you're looking for a little insurance, get any Viper 2001-present. They have ABS. That's about all the nannytech you're going to get on a Viper...
Re: UPDATE Viper Crash
Every time some idiot crashes a Viper doing something painfully stupid, which no nannygear in the WORLD could save... some lightweight prances around here demanding we need it. You name me ONE car that could regain control while being stupid doing 130mph.
Shouldn't...
Global warming does NOT exist... the last year or two, climate temps has gone DOWN. Notice, there is no long a mass use of the term "global warming". "Climate Change" is the new buzzword. Don't ever think you and your kind (which would include me) is significant enough to permanently harm mother...
You got that all wrong... it's when America tried to compete with the fuel efficient vehicles that they got slaughtered. We're good at big and brash... let the japs and eurotrash slug it out for MPG. If there were no CAFE and we just build the cars people want, we'd be a whole lot more...
Jeff- Bless you and your family. We appreciate you coming here considering your dad just passed yesterday. As you can see, he is loved here and will never be forgotten. It's only fitting that a brigade of American muscle will come together to see him off.
I hope you come visit us often here...
I don't think anyone here thinks the city council is in collusion. If anything, many city council members can be a huge thorn in their police dept's side. Your town's milage may vary.
Your two points are valid. My opinion of them:
1) There should be a decency clause in the employment contract...
Thanks for clarifying and the background... very interesting. Reads like a movie script. I defer to you on this specific case. I don't pretend to know what or when how often this ham sandwich was charged/indicted. I just know the guy needs to be fired (NOT paid) and spend some time in jail. I...
Thanks for your service and insight to the case in question. However I do find it hard to believe that in 34 years in LE, you have NEVER seen a fellow officer do something questionable and turn a blind eye or seen others who have. Or is it the usual "no harm no foul... as long as no one got...
Not all of us have the privilege of protecting the public's trust. To violate that with this stupid and reckless act is grounds for maximum punishment. To put in easier terms... a police officer SHOULD KNOW BETTER. If anything, he knew the risk, so suck it up.
Plain and simple. If I recklessly...
