One common practice employed by manufacturers is discontinuing existing car models before launching upgraded variants.

What's cosmic depression?

when you're depressed but in the cosmos

#it's like. depression that's so much bigger than your body. depression that encompasses all of reality.#i go into Walmart after walking 500 miles from my car because the parking lot is vast and eternally full #i need one specific thing. katsu sauce for example. only walmart has it according to an online search.#i am overwhelmed by the sprawl. I'm like there's no way all these clothes are gonna be bought. this is so many waffle makers.#against my better judgement i pass by the pet section. half gallon self cleaning betta boxes are 50% off.#I've lived here all my life and remember when this was a local chain grocery store.#there is a specific smell.#i hate walmart i hate going in. i can get cheaper bananas at smiths. in fact everything is cheaper at smiths. why am i here.#oh right. katsu sauce.#i find the condiment aisle with an asian section. there is no katsu sauce.#and that's cosmic walmart depression #m2a #m2answers

On September 17th 1854 David Dunbar Buick was born at 26 Green Street, Arbroath.

You might recognise the name Buick, and yes he is the man behind the famous car manufacturer. The iconic brand Buick motors have the distinction of being the oldest American brand of what the yanks call automobiles, but Scotland has the honour of being home to its founder.

Like the founding titans of American industry before him, David Buick travelled to America with his family as an infant. After leaving school, he took work manufacturing plumbing equipment, but before long he was showing an aptitude for innovation, including an early lawn sprinkler and a cost-effective means for enamelling cast iron bathtubs.

It was in the 1890s when Buick began showing interest in the motoring world. He had a particular interest in combustion engines – so much so that he all-but-ignored the plumbing business, ending with the eventual dissolving of the company. In 1899, the Scot set up Buick Auto-Vim and Power Company in Detroit, Michigan, selling combustion engines in the hope of revolutionising agriculture.

Over the next three years, he set his sights on producing a complete vehicle, draining his resources while generating no return and the finished car, created with chief engineer Walter Marr. He was out of money and a single car to show for his work. Despite the immeasurable odds being stacked against him, he founded Buick Motor Company in early 1902 and immediately set to work developing a revolutionary ‘valve-in-head’ overhead valve engine.

Today’s overhead cam engines are all generally derived from David Dunbar Buick’s innovative designs. By 1906, Buick’s frivolity had caught up with him. He was awarded a severance package from the company he had helped build and left with only one share in the firm. Buick Motor Company’s president, William C. Durrant – former General Manager and Buick’s chief investor – purchased his share for $100,000, equal to $2.7million today.

For those left in any doubt about Buick’s significant role in the history of motoring, his life’s work would later become the foundation on which General Motors was established. The Scot unsuccessfully revisited the automotive industry in 1921 with Lorraine Motors, but was almost completely broke by 1928 and in 1929 he died from cancer, aged 74. David Dunbar Buick was ushered into the Automotive Hall of Fame in 1974 for his contribution to the fledgling industry in the late 19th Century.

At the turn of the millennium, over 35,000,000 motor cars had been built in his name, which will never be lost to history.

The statue in the pic was unveiled in Michigan, another was planned for Arbroath as far back as 2018, but as yet so far it has not been erected.

Okay, I realize this is possibly the least likely place for me to find answer on this... But how in the world do you fully flush a car's coolant system that has no radiator valve on the radiator? The turbo has its coolant valve, but that doesn't back flow into the radiator, and the reserve tank works via expansion/contraction, so without liquid in the radiator it doesn't do the thing?? I am so confused.

everyday i feel like i'm a normal person and then i talk to people and i realize that maybe forgetting things like i do is not the standard human experience after all. crazy

#i was talking to my 50yo colleague and she was complaining that she keeps forgetting things and i was like. yeah i do it too its normal #and i started listing all the things that i forget to do on a regular basis #or when i leave things in the middle of doing them cause i get distracted #like i frequently forget where i park my car #i burned two coffe makers in the last 6 moths cause i forgot to put water in it. etc etc #and my other colleague chimes and says well no. that is not normal what the fuck #ITS NOT?!#shut up mila

Ok i'm rewatching The Comeback Kid and what I feel like no one talks about is the fact that in that race Pierre didn't just go from p10 to p1?

That was Lance Stroll's race to win.

Stroll was p8 when the pit chaos started. He didn't stop to pit when everyone else did, which catapulted him (same as Pierre) to the front. He never pit in the race at all, he just changed tyres during Charles' red flag and was ahead of Pierre at the restart.

Lance fucked up and Pierre overtook him at the restart as a result. He earned the P1. One person (in the slower of the two cars) survived the pressure. The other didn't.

People act like Pierre was the only one to benefit from the safety car when he wasn't. Arguably he didn't even benefit the most!

LANCE INHERITED THE RACE LEAD.

Why that isn't part of the story of that race is beyond me.

#also sorry to say it i love him but #charles was p17 when the pit lane closed. the mess in the pits HE skipped brought him to p6 #charles also... shouldve won that race but dropped it going around a turn and ended in the wall.#that was AFTER that safety car luck..#people had the opportunity to win that day. with the same or better luck than pierre #but he stayed calm and didnt put a foot wrong #and THAT was the difference maker #ok thats my ted talk bye
