    Can I interest you in Edwardian-era shipwrecks and maritime disasters?

        Look up Oceanliner Designs on YouTube, he will entertain you for hours on end about the topic more than I ever could!

      I can swap you for American and British cars of the 1930s through to the 1970s?

      While others believe it is like watching a niche YouTuber. Thank you for joining us in our weekly round table “Are They Autistic?” This week we will be discussing Todd, he’s sensitive to light, but doesn’t like trains.

    I see your Toyota expertise and raise you the primary, secondary, and tertiary balancing harmonics of pretty much any 4-stroke ICE geometry that’s not wildly esoteric

          Different strokes for different folks I guess … a low-idling big block V8 can cause the car to rumble in juuust the right way that it’s best to have vinyl seats

    Did you know all Toyota performance cylinder heads since the 1967 2000GT’s 3M were designed by Yamaha. I can’t find anything to confirm that is still the case for the G16E-GTS though.

    My son is 9 and knows more about Toyotas (and other JDM cars) than any 9 y.o. should know. Probably more than most Japanese car dealers would know.
    Should I have him tested for the ‘tism?

    I own a Toyota and my knowledge of the brand is middling.

      Then you’ll be happy to learn that Toyota developed its own production system that is now used by many other companies around the world. One might argue this is more valuable than the cars they produce.
