Here are some key facts: 1) The major causes of vehicular collisions are: distracted driving, impaired driving, excess speed, disregarding road rules/signs/lights. All driver error. So therefore blameworthy and not an ‘accident’. 2) Despite an increase in collisions, death rates have decreased. The reason being government mandated ‘passive’ safety devices such as crumple zones, 3 point seatbelts, etc. Proof that government mandating improves safety. 3) It is accepted that the best way to survive a collision is to avoid it. And ‘active’ safety devices such as stability control have proven to reduce these collisions by allowing drivers to take more extreme action without rolling over. ABS has also proven effective by allowing less ‘practiced’ drivers to engage in emergency braking and still steer or stop faster than applying the ‘binders’. So again proven effective. 4) So if all of the above government mandated safety initiatives have proven themselves statistically reduce accidents, and save lives, then why are you arguing against them??????????

11. Triumph pulled out all the stops when it comes to braking on the Scrambler 1200 XE. Dual Brembo M50 calipers clamp onto 320mm floating rotors and, in the case of the XE, mates with a radial Brembo MCS master cylinder that features span and ratio-adjustment allowing you to get virtually any feel from the brakes you wish. The XE has extraordinary stopping power—it is the identical setup to the Street Triple 765 RS. In the rear, a dual-piston caliper works with a 255mm disc and is easily modulated. Additionally, the XE model has an adjustable rear brake lever.

Both lane-assist equipped rental cars I’ve tried where the system is on by default have bordered on dangerous to drive when the system introduces an unexpected “nudge” in the steering, in the rain at 70mph on a twisty highway. Absolutely absurd. That was a CX5, the rental XC90 was much the same, on twisty country back roads driving to my brother’s past dark, smoothing out the corners by approaching or putting a wheel on the line made the system flip out and try to “help.” Stupid.

For initial EFI operation, FiTech recommends running the engine with its existing ignition system for ignition timing. Then, once the fuel side tuning has been finalized, then if the owner prefers, ignition control can be converted to the FiTech. This is a good plan because it minimizes the number of potential errors that could occur. That’s the next step for Buck’s ’56 but we just couldn’t wait so that will come later. No drama is anticipated.

“The addition of the new MTA v3 to our marine product program really completes our offering to the tug segment and provides a leaner, simpler and more efficient integrated solution to our customers,” said Jorgen Karlsson, Caterpillar Marine’s Tug and Salvage Segment manager.

Another minor advantage for the 700R4 is that it offers an old-school speedometer cable, so upgrading an older chassis is simple. The transmission fits into most early transmission tunnels fairly well, although, there might be some minor floor pan tweaking required.

Scat Enterprises shows you why dynamic balancing is important to the smoothness and durability of your engine your rotating assembly

ABS and lane departure protects the driver of the car too, or are you saying that your driving abilities are such that you can do a better job of modulating wheel lock up than a computer than can do it on an individual wheel basis?

Competition in the truck market is brutal because customers want it all: Power, affordability, handling, and interior refinements. From what we saw at the top-secret proving grounds this week, Chevy’s going to bring the goods to compete head-to-head with Ford’s 2.7-liter EcoBoost and Ram’s 5.7-liter HEMI, with or without its mild hybrid helper system. With improved driving dynamics and advanced engine tech, 2019 is going to be a great year for trucks generally, and for the new Chevy Silverado in particular.

Driving is not an unrestricted ‘right’. That is why there are existing driver licensing, vehicle licensing and insurance requirements, as well as applicable laws regarding vehicle operation.

But not only did he take care of the XJ in the beginning, but based on the service records, it appears that he meticulously maintained this Jeep throughout his over 20 year ownership. Here’ a 1992 receipt showing the Jeep received new gear oil in the axles, new transfer case oil, a fuel filter, and some injector cleaner when the Jeep had about 14,000 miles on the clock:
