SWB Jeep makes it past obstacles.. F250 cries, gets wrapped around tree trying to get around tight corner... BUT i will use the F250 to flat tow the jeep home after a day of fun.
the Jeeps short wheelbase is never good for towing.. its not an F250, not in the same class at all.. so its pointless to compare.. only thing that comes to mind that makes a fair comparison is LandRover, Toyota FJ and maybe some short wheelbase FX4's. Jeeps are Jeeps... they have gotten a little more soccer-mom-ish recently.. that being said the Wrangler JKs (2007+) are one of the most offroad capable production jeeps around.. the Rubi edition has electric lockers and electric swaybar disconnects.. they even have more ground clearance than their older bretheren. Talk all you want about what truck you drive, whoopi do... Chances are you wont see a Slashdot article about a 20 year old F250 anytime soon.
I'm an offroader.. I own a Jeep.. I do a lot of modifications to the Jeep... as such I participate in a lot of online discussion about Jeep fabrication.. There has always been people making Tomb Raider Jeeps, Jurassic Park Jeeps and endless 'military' style jeeps... some people start with an actually CJ3B and make it look like it came straigh outta WWII and some people take the newer Wranglers and make camo... The 32" tires alone make the Jeep a decent buy, I didn't read all about it, but hopefully they use the Rubicon platform for this, so the Jeep is actually somewhat capable off the shelf..
However, I'm the Jeep enthuisast who beleive tough Jeeps are BUILT and not BOUGHT

yah, becuase McDonalds coupons in the mailbox violate your rights? on an aside, I knew a guy who heated his garage solely with junk mail.. using a compactor and a airtight woodstove.. it was pretty slick.. it got to the point where friends and neuighbours would be dropping off boxes of junk mail for him. for a weekend mechanic / beer drinker like me.. thats cann add up to about 800 dollars in savings for a winter
Perhaps beneficiary is what you meant to say. I don't usually call out spelling/grammatical errors, but the wrong word here changes the entire meaning of your statement... aside from that, I agree with you.
the earth isnt alone in the universe.. every day tonnes of space shit falls to the earth. same with the moon... its less than a drop in the global bucket..
1 tenth of one ounce.. its about making it happen, not the results... the knowledge we gain is infinately more valuable than any gold we harvest from the moon
They buy the yacht in a private sale down in the tropics (becuase they can afford a summer home) and dont pay a dime of your federal sales tax.. We've got those taxes here in canada.. Federal sales tax, provincial sales tax and our income tax is still huge.. sales tax taxes the poor, not the rich.. they are much easier to get around...
maybe this ne was born from the "Medium" bang.. it happened about a billion years before the big bang, but only about 400 million years after the little bang.
If they contract their observatory / lab to major institutions to performing scientific work, this could be a net gain. A nice functioning town will evolve around the observatory.
makes it sound as tho he had never offloaded any data and had no backup... and was apparently using a 10 year old laptop, lol... I know I keep my most important documents on a 5.25" floppy disk, which I keep hidden behind my radiator

I agree.. it looks like a Rubicon without the locking D44's and unlocking swaybar

The ONLY benefactor is google.
I don't think thats the word you looking for. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benefactor

how were you able to post this message from your cave? since obviously you are a naturalist
uhm... oh nevermind, I havent got time to explain physics to you right now
they would make the mines in the shape of a Google logo, or whoever sponsors the mining expedition

Why should we have to expend money and energy to climb this cliff, to get stuff that we can easier get down here?
Becuase we can, what else have we got going on. I for one am tired of watching my roomba bounce off the coffee table.

if this is the case, then Heritage England owns the rights to the images taken. Since, at some point, stonehenge will be built there (here)
use the open source IP tech... I think its called IPZilla
its 192.168.0.101, my laptop broke so i dont need it anymore.

What if that blob of a gallaxy is is really the Milkyway
Like the chocolate bar? That'd be awesome

They rebuilt it after Clark Griswald knocked it over 1985. http://replicahenge.files.wordpress.com/2010/03/chevy-sh.jpg?w=300&h=225
they can start with the 8-billion slated to hire a consulting firm to lower costs in the NASA cafeteria
That and "good news everyone! my data isnt lost afterall"
i heard about a guy that left a Justin Bieber CD on his dash... when he got back to his car the window was smashed, and someone left a second CD
