My Subaru Outback has a CVT - and paddles to "shift".
To my thinking, the whole concept of shifting should go out the window in a car with a CVT: engine RPM should be determined solely by the most...

IMHO, herein lies the root of the problem:

I don't see the text above as saying nullify, I see it as saying that locals don't need to help enforce fed laws. Basically if da feds are going to mandate background checks et al, then let the feds...

Yes, to cars (and boats) needing to earn their names. I've long called my outback with a cvt: Lurch.

I think that would be 11kWh of thermal energy, which your ICE will convert to prop energy at somewhere between 10 and 25% efficiency.

Actually, they were claiming it had an effect upon the applicant pool: students of modest means wouldn't turn away immediately upon seeing the $65k sticker price, but would see that it was no more...

To that end, local college Colby Sawyer realized this year that 100% of their students were getting fin aid; the list price was totally meaningless to students and just served to create distorted...

If memory serves, all but Lincoln were enslavers. So people of considerable despotism & cruelty would also be an apt description.

I've had trouble gluing wide-ish thin strips with Titebond. The issue seems to be that before the glue cures, the glued surface of the strip absorbs water from the glue - and that surface expands,...

I've never actually done a long sloped reference with a water level, but this is how I would do it if tasked:
Grab an 8' long stake and make a "grade mark" every 5" along it's length. Go to the...

My hunch is that they would've done it with water levels. A length of hose with some clear sighting risers at ends and you can lay out dead level for as far as your hose is long. ...
