[Twist and Slide in Any Direction]
Oh, sorry. Thought this was a thread about ABC/CBS/NBC/CNN/Yahoo spinning for Hillary.
My bad.

I’d rather have a car that doesn’t twist and slide in every direction.
No tread.won’t last very long. Expensive as hell.
That would be a big hit here in California where parallel parking isn’t even on the driver’s test any more. You ought to see the hilarious attempts to parallel park by those under 35. Heaven help you if you get stuck behind one in the traffic lane.
James Brown would have those on his car.
Power boats with twin screws (No, not a Bill Clinton capability) have been able to this for years, by reversing one prop.
The USS Enterprise could turn ‘on a dime’ at Attack Speed, because she had props on both sides along the hull.
When it comes to doing it with vehicles it is going to take some mighty unconventional wheels/tires.
Caterpillar D-8s, 9s and 10s are simple to parallel park.
Problem is, not many people drive them in urban areas, where most parallel parking takes place.
Maybe the solution to parking is to ensure people can actually operate a vehicle before handing them a license.
I suppose that’s somehow a racist thing to say and I don’t comprehend how because of my white privilege. Or global warming. Or something.
Liddiard’s biggest market? I can see it now, low-riders. I can envision the ‘52 Chevy with the BIG bus steering wheel, the seat on the floor, the driver barely seen behind the dash peering through the spokes, doo boppin’ down the street, hydraulics, and Liddiards at play, Stereo Boom Box with the valve cranked. The crowd just marveling at the show. WOW MAN!
Might help some people with boat trailers.
Thank you.

Several years ago, I told a co worker he could use my pick up to make an emergency trip from work to home.
About a 15 minute round trip to the parking lot back in to our work area. He came in, handed me back my keys and said he didn’t know how to drive a stick shift.
I believe his face might have turned red except he was a black man, I don’t think black people get red faces.
By the way he was an all around family man, hard worker and good friend. Just ignorant about stick shifts.
Maybe the solution to parking is to ensure people can actually operate a vehicle before handing them a license.

It’s all those things and more, you white devil honky!
(I’m identifying as a black male today)-
I have a 1988 F-150.
When someone wants to borrow mt truck, I have to give them instructions...
the first thing that confuses them is the round key and the square key,
and then it is the foot operated high-beam dimmer switch on the floor,
and then there is the switch to swap from the front tank to the rear tank.
