Didn’t want to post this before I was sure this was not AI. It is not! While living in Montgomery, I have spent a lot of time at NAS Pensacola and pretty much watch Blue Angles every year during official shows or training. But, this flyover is something. I personally haven’t seen Blue Angles...

On Friday, AN 124 was seen flying over Kyiv, which, to say the least, was very strange. https://www.kyivpost.com/post/56178 However, that An-124 was stuck in Kyiv since February 2022. It managed to avoid the fate of An-225 and has been repaired numerous times since then. Then yesterday, July...

Not sure if they needed to go back to the gate to change underwear:

It is very predictable every year, but this one is really something. They had off road tires, so I guess they thought that traversing one of the most dangerous mountain passes, IN WRONG DIRECTION, in the US, is than OK, with, pay attention, Chevrolet Blazer! I wouldn’t do the Black Bear pass...

OK, this will turn heads: (MOD note - link removed) I get an argument that, considering the number of vehicles, there are savings in CO2 emissions. An estimate is 10 billion tones annually. But here is where the problem is: until China and India seriously tackle pollution, all that is...

I see we post seasonal tire changes in many topics not related to that particular “activity.” I just swapped tires on wife’s Tiguan. Off: Bridgestone Blizzak WS90 215/65 R16. On: Michelin Pilot AS3+ 235/50 R18. They have this season left.

OK, @Astro14, what is going on here? From the background, ZRH?

Eddie Jordan passed away today! The guy who gave a chance to Michael Schumacher and brought rock and roll to F1. Pillar of the long-gone days of F1. https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/obituary-team-owner-eddie-jordan-who-brought-rock-and-roll-to-f1/10705131/

Stop your purchases, forget that new Tacoma or RAV4 or F150, the YUGO is back! I am not sure whether it will have writing under door panel: “the quality resembles the paycheck,” like some had, but the automotive world is declaring a comeback to good ole days...

This just happened. Apparently everyone is accounted for. Crazy couple of months:

it has first post WWII V12 made by German company. Basically, two I6 engines with two ECU’s etc. and manual!

Idk are you guys following this, but it seems as serious accident. Apparently CRJ-700 collided with UH60 BlackHawk on the approach to DCA. There is video circulating on internet and unfortunately this is not looking good.

Some of you know I ditched the 2021 VW Atlas bcs. windshield issue. I had topic about it and inquiry about Sequoia and V8: https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/calling-all-tundra-sequoia-5-7-v8-owners-why-not-purchase-why-yes.383990/page-2 So, I am not going into reasons why I ditched...

OK, here is one interesting (I think) UOA. Oil is Motul 300V 5W40, designed for racing purposes, and this is a current (new) formula with a bit less ester content than before (more PAO). Specification is KV100 13.5cst and HTHS is 4.1cP. Car was NOT tracked. Blackstone got used to me sending...

OK, sign me up for this! https://www.vaildaily.com/news/i70-traction-law-fines-vail-mayor/#:~:text=Vail%20Mayor%20Travis%20Coggin%20wants,no%20chains%20during%20a%20snowstorm. Once Christmas comes, until the end of March, the probability of getting stuck on I70 towards Vail is actually really...

Absolute speed trap that became for some time national news. Speed limit was 25mph in an area where 45mph might be slow. In article one can sense that revenue is the point, safety is secondary. I knew about this camera and was careful when in that area. But Morrison is where Red Rocks...

OK, we were talking about this before, but here is the new study. "Autopilot," "Full-Self Driving," and other fake advertising are IMO big part of the problem. Another part are other things where Tesla tried to reinvent the wheel: only screen in the middle, no turn salks, etc...

Sky above Air Force Academy today. Find an intruder:

So, I got Sequoia. Some of you know my initial question about it: https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/calling-all-tundra-sequoia-5-7-v8-owners-why-not-purchase-why-yes.383990/ I was trying to figure out some alternatives due to gas consumption, but with 3rd kid on the way and the fact we...

So, in my attempt to avoid buying 2nd generation Toyota Sequoia (will happen, still, keep reading) I am renting these 3 row SUV's every time I need to rent something. We went to Hawaii for a week since kids have a two-week fall break (our district has that, but they start school two weeks...
