    While driving back from the dentist this morning I got passed by a Tesla with the personalized plate, "Chk Eng".  Brilliant!

    I saw a bumper sticker this morning on a Chevy Volt that said, "Saving gas money to buy more guns." Haha! I never thought I'd see that on a Chevy Volt!

    @DMW - had to circle back to see the poster as I was focused on the ride.  Great that you surfaced here.  Sweet ride.  Just air that rig out at least once a week.  That power plant needs it.  
    Now back to our regularly sponsored "post some great cooks" request!

    Not a fan of the spoiler on these.  It looks tacked on.

    You should see all the front scoops and vents.  Beauty is in function on these.

    True. Have a friend with one of these and the look is a little ridiculous, but as Ozzie points out, it’s all about function.

    For the function you need to push the performance.  I seriously doubt very few owners will get remotely close to the limits these rides offer.

    Spotted by a B-I-L. He said “why is it on a trailer when it can fly?”

    Absolutely true. Most buyers buy for specs on paper, not real world capability in the day to day. Truth be told, the delta between a Civic and a GT3RS on the average outing is minimal at best. Probably money better spent on good bourbon. 😎

    My daily is a Volkswagen Atlas.  I occasionally drive my wife’s daily.  The chasm between the two is substantial.  Performance between the two isn’t even in the same universe and the drive of the Cayenne is such a joy with absolutely precise steering, no body roll, and linear breaking, plus the sound.  I would give up bourbon for life for a GT3RS.  I cannot even fathom what that must feel like to drive.

    Market capitalization for a company is not the same as annual revenue.
