Man, I haven't had a Ranier in ages.

@facw said in Oppo Automation 1 Year Anniversary Challenge: Race Ready Restomods:

It spawned beneath the level (though high enough to pop out with some damage)
It still aggressively zooms out when accelerating in a way I don't think other cars do?

These are Alacrity exclusive issues. No other car does any of this.

That said:

Despite high drivability and sportiness scores, it is still utterly uncontrollable

Plenty of cars do this 😉

Mailly grand cru

Sounds interesting, looks like total wine has it, sounds like I should give it a try.

@gettingoldercarguy Love it when Google does this!

@essextee That one I've toyed with so far, has proven to be very interesting! It's on my short list of what to use thus far.

@ttyymmnn Good morning indeed!

@powershiftmatt If you like that 3.0T, a friend of mine may be moving on from his B8 S4. 3.0 supercharged, and it's a manual car.

Blue BMW is nice BMW

Here's hoping you have trouble free miles in your new car.

@pip-bip my wife and I have been separated for over a year and on our way to divorce, she filed awhile ago but there’s a 6 month “cool off” period.

I can say from experience, that keeping you mouth shut thing is harder than it sounds.

@ike808 Highly doubt it, as the earthquake happened almost a couple of hours before the eruption. But again, I'm not a geologist or vulcanologist.

@adabofoppo thank you, the name meant nothing to me, so i still had to google.

@john-norris C&O is a zoo now, though I remember going back when I was in college in 2011 or 2012 and it was on a scale much more similar to this. There's definitely some money in that area. Good to know for future reference, if I'm ever in Roswell on the first Sunday of the month.

I knew you were in GA, didn't realize you were near where I grew up/went to high school, RHS 08, and where my parents still are.

@pip-bip The Astre Formula looked snazzy.

Not the restaurant, the ornament.

This reply makes me smile broadly. Clearly, being excellent runs in your family.

A colleague has had a deposit in for some time, apparently he should get his truck mid next year. In the meantime Rivian is proactively booking appointments with customers and letting them take one out for a 45 minute drive, Nate had his turn two weeks ago. Smart marketing on their part.

@streetsofperth Bump for the sake of interest.

@boxer_4 maybe they know who will be a serial killer?

@mr-ontop I actually quite like the bolt too and have seriously considering buying one a few times.

A few months ago they issued a huge recall, advised people don't park bolts indoors and idled the plant due to a defect with the battery packs being built by LG. It's a small risk, but one that'll cause them to replace the battery back in every bolt ever made.

@pixel that is a sweet-assed van. I am super-jealous.

Your plans for it are just what mine would be too.

I always thought your handle was related to the French missile family, I'm a dumb.

@pip-bip Don't look in the wiring tray of my exocet if you think that's bad.

It's an easy mistake to make if you spent time in Oppopolitics.

Love me that green 911. Such a shame we don't see more like that!

I appreciate everyone's help and info! I'm going to my local Best Buy, they have a few Lenovo laptops and a few Air's for me to play with. Will try and figure out which one I like better. I feel that if I get the MacBook, I might jump ship and go full iPhone and Apple Watch...

@functionoverfashion oh yes. Im feeling this
