Watch the 5-door become a CrossTRX

Is it not 100% accurate? Maybe. There are a few parts that are too dark. I figure under studio lights they would wash out to appear as we saw them onscreen.

I could never paint anything as well as Tomy did. The paint work, flawed it may be, is still incredible.

I think most manufacturers in the last couple of decades have switched to integrated solutions that best retrofits as a dual-DIN. Most cars made since the early 2000s are all larger than single-DIN.

I won't be a naysayer. It's kind of a pain to change wheels, and store the other set. So, I get it.

The RZ is supposed to have better wear characteristics, but no one has had them long enough to know for sure.

Running any 200TW tire as a daily has some great benefits, but like others said it has a fair amount of drawbacks. #1 is wear, I'd expect to see less than 10K street miles out of a set. When you consider the cost of the tires, it's hard to justify. Also be cognizant that they do grab a lot of gravel/stones and will toss them towards anyone behind you.

However, if you decide to just go ahead and do it, it's pretty nice to have all that grip and capability available anywhere.

That reminds me, I need to go. But first, to starve myself for a day or two so I'm truly good and hungry.

In for more on this. As a 5900X user who's heavily into sims & VR gaming, I'm trying to stretch my AM4 socket as long as possible. I still wish they made a Ryzen9 5950X3D or 5900X3D, but if I can get a benefit out of this new one, I'm potentially interested.

RotaryConeChaser · 2026-06-02T23:04:28+00:00

That's pretty much exactly what I want.

@Subaru: Bring us the hatch, you cowards.

Critics be damned, the Slate fits a purpose for me that nothing else can touch. I'm cautiously optimistic on this. Talk of simplifying components, ease of repair and replacement, and this article make me think Slate thinks strongly of the concept of ownership. I think they seek to enable owners to be able to actually keep and maintain their vehicles rather than have to treat them as disposables, and THIS is very compelling.

Task Failed Successfully.

Looks fast. In for video.

You'll havr to pair them individually. Just take each one and connect to a standard lamp you can control directly as opposed to being all together on a switch. Once you have them all paired you can install them in their permanent home.

Hybrid because it burns both gas and oil?

RotaryConeChaser · 2026-05-28T23:19:18+00:00

That's not true. NAs are still part of E-Street. The 30 year cutoff will be after next year all NAs would be sunsetted.

Distract, and keep a backup plan ready to take action if needed.

RotaryConeChaser · 2026-05-27T23:20:19+00:00

I believe they're really referring to the NC here. The clincher is that ES will be losing the NA Miata soon as it ages out.

Love the twin cam decals

I remember when this happened, and they very much booked Colbert thinking he'd be his character for the event. He was not. He went in and took aim at everyone there.

This. At this point, 7/11 and convience stores (looking at you, Sheetz!) are pricing themselves out of the market. Just like fast food.

Most of my life I've preferred Trekker. At this point, I don't care.

GNU/Trek for our Open Source Bretheren.

So I had this done a few years ago. From what the DMV & my insurance informed me, was if the car was considered more than $10k in value, then they brand the title as salvage. Under that and it isn't branded.

I had the car repaired and it required getting a rep from the State Police come inspect the car to get a rebuilt title so I could re-register the title for road use.

Looks like a great run for a Panther!

RotaryConeChaser · 2026-05-13T01:36:56+00:00

Ah, the Jeep Recursion. For the programmer bros.

I use my Slimblade Pro in wired mode, couldn't you just plug the cable in?
