Volts and Prius’...
they had to stop and recharge..
don’t get them started on the Leafs...
How about English Leather??
Hai Karate?
Bye-bye Karate.
I thought I recognized the communities...they are in Northern Oregon.
My Uncle’s favorite cologne: “Evening in a Barnyard”.
I wouldn’t have thought a Chrysler would GO 140. Unless you pushed it off a really high cliff.
I had my 2002 Porsche 996 twin turbo up to 155 when my wife told me she was “uncomfortable”. On the Autobahn, in Germany I was a mere novice doing 250 km/hr. Most of the good drivers are cruising at 300 km/hr. About (188 mph)
Not at night, good visibility and where there is no posted speed limit.
I just thought of something...maybe my wife didn’t like my cologne.
“I had my 2002 Porsche 996 twin turbo up to 155 when my wife told me she was “uncomfortable””
My wife had an epileptic fit when I pushed our Trabant to 45 MPH. But maybe that was because of the fumes.
THAT’s one I forgot! Good catch! And Canoe. I’m having olfactory hallucinations, smelling each of them, now.
Mercifully, that’s one I missed.
Thanks for visiting my great state, Montana!
Minnesota liberals are fools, some of them are my in-laws...
Sigh.
<(;^O)
I recall one day in a grocery store in my town (in Montana)...
My wife and I were shopping, mid morning, we ran into some friends that I really couldn’t recognize and relate to appropriately in an appropriate amount of time.
I apologized to them and mentioned to them that at this time yesterday I was driving a Mercedes on the autobahn in Germany and I was a bit jet-lagged.
It was a fun statement to make...
Too windy to make your speed but I was flyin’
Sometimes when people are really scared, they smell pretty strong too.
Hai Karate
I came in third, lol...should have kept reading.
Never used it, but I can remember the ‘fragrance’. Heh.
I drive an elantra 2013. They will do 155 in the US(electronic limiting). I hear they go faster in Korea where they are built with no limiters in them. That new hybrid 6 speed transmission is sweet. Now I never took it up that fast but I read in California they ticketed a man in an Elantra doing just that. They only caught him because the electronic limiter shut the engine down. A Hyundai elantra? I couldn’t believe it but experts in the know swear to me it’s true!
Then there was day on I 95 I was in a crowded ‘traffic box’ and wanted to pull away a bit to help open up some congestion...I was at 70 plus and cars were crowded a bit behind, left and right as well...must have been day dreaming a bit when I did it because somehow after five minutes I was over 100 mph in 6th gear and the tachometer was just over the 3500 line with barely a strain in the car...it was just that smooth. The suspension lowers the faster you go and the handling seems to improve as opposed to being spongy. Hyundai has come a long way since the early 90’s when all they built for the US were throw away cars!
I was a little kid when I saw the bottle and decided I had to give it to my father for Christmas. He unwrapped it, and acted like I’d given him the world. :)
