Hurricane Melissa produced the fastest hurricane winds to be recorded by a dropsonde, verified by reviewing data at NSF NCAR! Hurricane Melissa’s 252 mph wind gust surpassed the previous record from Typhoon Megi over the Western Pacific in 2010, where a dropsonde measured wind gusts of 248 mph.

huh, so this might be one of the most sublime specs on one of the most tidy designs of the century
oh and “According to its previous Italian owner, a former Fiat parts supplier, the factory kept it for Gianni Agnelli's personal use, before he bought it himself.”

Dreams do come true... today I got to drive an International Harvester Travelall with an AMC inline six and a 3-speed manual.
It was amazing.

Rather enjoying seeing Darth Vader’s 800hp vans on the streets of Sydney.
(Also somewhat proud as I worked in the rear seat concept for the Zeekr 009 when it was still going to be a Lynk & Co.)

On a related (and hilarious) note, can somebody get an image for me of a 850r wagon towing a red 1997 Cobalt 190 with a red accent?
I tried asking one of those new AI things and all it shows me is the boat towing the car.

How much was an early 90s Prelude in today’s dollars?
I’ll have to drive it, but $43,195 seems like “an lot” for a Civic Hybrid Coupe.

I have a different take. The boss wanted a glowing review of the car but the proletariat staff subversively inserted Moxie and Not See in this post.
The Model X continues to impress, and while 2026 brings some small updates, the best changes over the past decade are the ones you can't see.

You’re looking at a freshly inspected Mercedes 240 D ambulance. With a 280 SLC body and drivetrain.
People used to do body/drivetrain swaps all the time in the ’80s due to heavy Finnish import taxation of the time. This is one of the more :chef kiss: examples.

San Diego has 2x the population of Helsinki and about 270 people died in traffic related fatalities in 2024
“Helsinki hasn’t registered a single traffic-related fatality in the past year…Citing data that shows the risk of pedestrian fatality is cut in half by reducing a car’s speed from 40 to 30km/hr, city officials imposed the lower limit in most of Helsinki’s residential areas & city center in 2021.”
Helsinki just went a full year without a single traffic death
The capital city is Finnish’ed with car-related fatalities.
