Canada may be different, but as I explained to both of my sons as they were 
learning to drive;

75% of all drivers on the road right now are distracted. They are

1. Texting/surfing the Web.
2. Talking on the phone.
3. Talking/yelling at passengers
4. On medication that impares there judgement and motor skills.
5. Taking illicit substances that impare them.
6. Are angry, depressed, or some other emotional state that impares
‎them.
7. Fiddling with the radio.
8. Need their vision corrected, but don't have proper eye wear.
9. More in tune with the music on the stereo, than the other cars on the road.
10. Just plain bad drivers.

Rick



If that is true, then it may be time to swap for a dumptruck.
Harder to park but bigger than most of the other vehicles on the road.

Has to be an extra zero in the price?

Who would ask $20K for a car that "needs a few things" and has no 
working AC?


$2000.00 maybe?

I'm seeing someone who paid $20k for it and then found how much it would

Other than that a real cream puff -  worth maybe a third of 20k - Big maybe!

[MBZ] OT Electric Planes Flying across the Channel!

[Andrew Strasfogel via Mercedes]

First electric flights cross English ChannelPublished: Friday, July 10, 2015

An Airbus craft became the second electric plane to fly across the English
Channel today, just hours after an independent French pilot beat the
aviation company to it.

The 20-foot-long, 1,300-pound E-fan plane flew from Lydd, England, to
Calais, France, a 31-mile journey, on battery power alone this morning. But
12 hours before, French pilot Hugues Duval flew his one-seat, two-engine
220-pound Cricri plane from Calais to Dover, England, and back. He had his
plane towed at the start of the trip because he didn't have authorization
to take off from Calais.

The fight for "firsts" in electric flight has heated up in recent years as
the technology quickly develops. Airbus hopes to have a hybrid-electric
100-seat plane available within 15 years, it said.

"It's a great victory, but it's also a start. For us it's an adventure that
permits us" to imagine commercial flight on electric or hybrid planes, said
pilot Didier Esteyne, who flew the Airbus plane today. "It's really the
beginning of great innovations" (Maggy Donaldson, AP/Fort Worth

Re: [MBZ] I smoked a lot of crack followed by crystal meth

[Rich Thomas via Mercedes]

I see some fairly nice ones around here for $10k +/- which is probably 
reasonable for one in decent shape.  This one looks like some goober got 
it somewhere and decides to flip it, who knows what is wrong with it.
