That’s simply awesome man! A commentary on our times.

But I believe one of the batteries crapped out in less than 1/2 the expected life. So much for the Mfg's claim what's new. That being said what a picture

Came across this meme this morning and I think it holds some truth.
The view count difference between these videos is a clear demonstration is what's wrong with the world:

But if we did send them up they'd be of great use for holding equipment together if something went wrong. Most adhesives used in space travel are silicone based.

Whoa, Whoa, slow down fellas.
The mass alone, if they get too close will cause a singularity to form.

The Falcon heavy can take 63 metric tons of payload. The BFR can take 150 tons. Either should be able to handle the shallowness of kardashians, whatever their butt sizes, and including a motor home. Maybe they could eject the motor home and kardashians into orbit like they did the car?

Go big or go home, eject them into the sun

Former Boss and I setting in the big muckety-muck's conference room and the BM-M asked what the answer was. FB and I simultaneously said "42". (and then had to explain WTH we just said.)
Luckily BM-M had a sense of humor that day.

The TRD Pro line up for 2019 has me thinking about a Tundra...
From Motortrend:
"In addition to the Fox shocks with 46 mm pistons, the Tundra’s suspension gets an extra 2 inches of lift, and wheel travel is increased by more than 1.5 inches in front and more than 2 inches in the rear. The full-size pickup gets the new Rigid Industries LED foglights and LED headlights with more menacing black accents, a new grille and hood scoop, and an available moonroof. The truck has a dual exhaust with black chrome exhaust tips.
In the back, “TRD Pro” is stamped in the rear quarter panels, and the truck gets new 18-inch BBS forged-aluminum, five-spoke satin black wheels with Michelin P275/65R18 all-terrain tires. Under the front end is a one-quarter-inch thick skidplate."
Probably still cheaper just to do the front end conversion on my Sequoia and slap on the fancy Fox suspension components.
The roof rack for the 2019 4Runner makes it look like they found a warehouse full of NOS FJ Cruiser roof racks and painted them black.
And this has Broverlander written all over it:

I like how the FJ-esque roof rack is designed to eject your gear when you slam on the brakes...
Makes removing your roof top tent easier.
LOL, I'm sure that rack isn't even rated to carry a RTT. But no doubt it's a $1K option on the window sticker or something crazy.
