No, Mopeds are for kids and drunk drivers that have lost their licences.I drove a moped(Puch) when I was 15, am I a criminal??, it had pedals too.
Hell Yeah, He's The Man. Too bad no-one recognized it. I wonder what a Kucinich/Paul ticket would have been like. I'm sure it would have been interesting.Anybody like Dennis Kucinich ??
Who knows? Maybe Obama will do what he says. It would be a refreshing first. If he does what he said he'd do, I'm pretty sure assassination would be on the table. You can't fuck with the PTBs (Powers that be)A people's ticket, that would be.
Business and compassion must come together,somehow,Yeah right.
Gonna get dragged though the coals now.
Most of what I know about Boone Pickens is dated by twenty years. Regardless of your opinion of him, for better or worse, he is a rather iconic individual.Funny thing is, most in this thread have an opinion of T. Boone Pickens By what they read about him on the Internet. (Which he pays people to polish his image) People in my Part of the Country Know what he is about by his actions.
Most vehicles do not have overdrive. But, I bet yours gets better mileage at 70 than it does at 55. Most vehicles get their best mileage at 55-60.WTF are you driving, an F-15? Because that is about the only thing that will beat me from 60-150. With that overdrive trans, I can do 150@6500rpm and actually the motor will twist to 7500, so bye-bye to you my friend, whoops, I actually slipped and called you friend. I'm sure that's up for debate.
I think he is in great danger. I suspect even some democrats would consider plotting an accident for him.Who knows? Maybe Obama will do what he says. It would be a refreshing first. If he does what he said he'd do, I'm pretty sure assassination would be on the table. You can't fuck with the PTBs (Powers that be)
Well, geeze, I thought you knew more about cars. Since the early '90's most auto Mfgrs. have made overdrive transmissions. All earlier transmissions had a 1:1 final drive ratio. In the first overdrives I believe they had a .80:1 and later .75, .70 and some 6 speed trannys have like a .68:1. My Nova has a 95 GMC 700R-4 overdrive 4 speed automatic with a final drive ratio of .70:1. My dodge pickup, '04' has a similar final drive ratio. BTW this car is not about mileage, It probably will see more 1/4 mile bursts than not but then again be able to cruise the freeways @ 80MPH at 3,000 RPM, but with 500 Hp, mileage is not the objective. Yeah, I know do the math, at 6,000 RPM it would be going 160 and the motor will hold up to 7500 which would be like 202 MPH and I'll guarantee you it will never see that speed with me in it.Most vehicles do not have overdrive. But, I bet yours gets better mileage at 70 than it does at 55. Most vehicles get their best mileage at 55-60.
Sad, but true.The point is this, there are many solutions to the energy crises and most people are mortified at any one of them. This country STILL doesn't give a damn about conservation.
Isn't bigger is always better still the American mantra?Sad, but true.
