I agree, I have done that...reach for the clutch and almost drive the left foot through the firewall

I remember the first time I drove an automatic. I was fine until i drove into the driveway at home. When I was close to being stopped went for the clutch and hit the extra wide brake pedal and almost put my passengers though the front windshield.
No Seatbelts back in the day..
I was sorta thinkin along the lines of lifting the motor as high as possible to get a high center of gravity, that way the money spent on the roll bar would not be a waste.Stole this picture from XFIRE but it explains where the term "Roll Bar" came from. Plus the engine and drive train angle explains the term "Dragster" for the drive shaft.
During my career, I was the consulting engineer on numerous hydrocarbon reclamation projects. A 10 foot excavation was an easy one. Old abandoned gas station lots were the worst. Underground fuel storage tanks that had been leaking for 50 years or more and migrating underground into adjacent properties and water aquifers. The resale or redevelopment value of the land was only a fraction of the cleanup cost. Which is why we still have abandoned properties that have just been fenced off and stayed untouched. Once you start a reclamation and open these up, it has to be completed no matter how many millions over budget it runs. And they always are over budget.
Dave I think you misdiagnosed this problem. What is the helper looking at? I think the new raised rear motor mount broke on the last pass......lol
I did that mistake once, the passenger on the right seat was a little surprise, lucky she had the safety belt on, she would probably kiss the glove box
A little broken english, but it gets the point across! lol
Bottom picture must have been taken in Uxbridge!
I need a wifi enabled socket set! While they are working on that ....
Interesting Rruuff. I spent my career in consulting as well. I've seen Lake Simcoe waterfront stay undeveloped for 20 years because contaminated soils were found. Only became cost effective this last year. but mostly because condos are about a million bucks each. Also seen old service station properties along Highway 11 North of Barrie. The contaminated plumes extended below the highway, property value less than zero, nobody digs up a provincial highway.
The sockets are only $10.99, the UV light $139.50. Its like printers, the printer is $59.00, cartridges $79 twice or 3 times a year.
Not if you have an HP printer.. I pay $7.49 a month plus taxes for 100 pages. If you don't use them all you can have up to 300 pages in the bank, that you can use if you go over 100 pages in your billing cycle and they ship you cartridges to replace the ones in your printer . They also have plans for higher or lower usages. If you have an HP printer and are interested please PM me and I can recommend you and I will get a free month. You will also get a free month.
Not when you drop a load Murray. LOLOr save trees, print nothing!
I'm paperless whenever possible.
I always ask for a receipt at the grocery store or restaurants. I figure i am encouraging the forestry industry..
Last time i bought my printer (HP) i also bought spare cartridges. They were more expensive than the printer. When I set up the printer I saw the advert for the HP cartridge program. Brought the spare cartridges back for refund and now pay just over $6 per month for them to monitor the ink and send a new cartridge when necessary. I don't print very much now-a-day
OK, You got me there, but I did say "whenever possible"!
I, too, always get receipts. It's not that I don't trust them ... Oh, wait ... I don't trust them! lol
Not so bad now as it is tap and go.OK, You got me there, but I did say "whenever possible"!
I, too, always get receipts. It's not that I don't trust them ... Oh, wait ... I don't trust them! lol
Back in the day when you had to sign the receipt it did happen that the statement did not jive with the receipt. A little extra was added or even a few times double charged.
So I ALWAYS check out the statement versus my receipts. Which is why you want the receipt!
If at first you don't succeed, try and try and try and.......!
He is probably running on a empty fuel tank and need new tires
