Isn't the wheel design the one they use for Vegas? Are they going to run it all year?

Are the wheels mounted in the correct direction for the NACA ducts?

I’ve no idea why we were throwing back to 2016 recently, but I did enjoy looking through what I shot that year. This was a particular unusual day which involved exploring abandoned airplanes, an empty runway and a Jaguar XJ220.

How is it that Amy Adams seems to weasel her way into all these mid-tier early 2000s films?

The local used book store near me is slowly contracting their "transportation" section down to nothing. Mostly Barnes and Noble editions about Harleys, Corvettes, and steam trains now. :/

You've just opened the floodgates to 100s of #weirdcarbs enablers. Good luck.

Wilderness first aid courses are also really good for this - usually only takes a weekend, and sometimes can be found for free or seriously discounted.

The most famous is VW - they feasted on basically two models for decades: the Beetle and the Bus (with a couple oddballs thrown in, like the Type 3, and the Karmann Ghia). But eventually you’ve got to add more if you want to scale up.
