Oh man thank you so much for mentioning him! I've been struggling to remember a book of his that i read a while ago
Secondhand cigarette smoke (but not too strong) even though i've never smoked
Huh, reminds me of myself except the unapologetic part (maybe i'll change over to that someday). I do feel like the selfish/stubborn part of me is insurmountable and incompatible with the types of relationships i envision for myself. Nothing else to contribute, just here to share my thoughts and/or commiserate
The views on the blue ridge parkway are great! Are you going to be around the tail of the dragon area (border between NC and TN)? The roads there are even twistier
I think it's taking it literally i.e. people who don't know made the picture on the left, people who do know made the picture on the right
I think you just have to get lucky with being able to find the spec sheet for the exact model you're working with. Otherwise 🤷
Well that's up to the audience to decide
Shitposts aren't supposed to be high quality. It's in the name
Thank you for acknowledging central jersey :)
Does the instruction on the first line of the file not work?
I don't personally have experience with a diverse multitude of cars (and transmissions) as a whole either, but i've heard plenty of good things online about the zf8 as probably one of the best torque converter automatics on the market for sporty driving (e.g. having very responsive shifts). It supposedly does not feel like a "slush box" which i'm assuming exhibits many of the behaviors that you're describing for a typical torque converter automatic.
In terms of drivetrain choices for daily driving, fully electric bevs seem to be the best fit. Instant torque, lots of torque, probably lower maintenance(?). And i say this as a lover of manual transmissions (my miata is currently in the shop though 😢)
Helping a friend install an exhaust and then getting some food. Otherwise nothing else concrete planned :) what about you though?
