For $3600, This 1984 Toyota Hi-Lux Hides A Grand Prize - Jalopnik

Well, aside from a possible raccoon infestation there a few actual debbie downers here to contemplate. Not that big a deal, but it makes you wonder why that is. Next up, it’s lowered on blocks which isn’t my favorite thing. Then there’s the 7. 5-inch rear end which is spooled. That we all know, is great at the strip but sucks dead hobo ass when it comes to these crazy things called corners. Tops on the post-purchase to-do list should be the installation of a proper Posi rear end. Oh, and sandbags, lots and lots of sandbags. Source: jalopnik.com

What is diesel technology: Can tech conquer everything but the smell at the pump? - ExtremeTech

They travel as much 800 miles between fill-ups, which is good, because one problem lingers: the whiff of kerosene that likewise lingers on your hands after time you fill up. A bit less than one in 100 passenger cars and SUVs sold today is a diesel. Add in pickup trucks, where the take rate is better than 10 in 100, and you have 3% market share for diesels. Small as it is, the number represents growth — roughly equal to the sales rate for hybrids, plug-in hybrids, and electric vehicles, as long as you include diesel pickups. Here’s what diesel technology does and why many people feel diesel is better. Despite the fuel seeming less refined or less sophisticated than gasoline, diesel packs about 10% more BTUs per gallon than gasoline. The ruggedly built diesel engine compresses air to one-twentieth its original volume, then a trace of diesel fuel is injected into the cylinder and it spontaneously combusts without the need for a spark plug. The gasoline engine, in comparison, compresses a mixture of fuel and air to about one-tenth its original volume and then a spark plug ignites it. A diesel-engine vehicle typically costs $1,000-$2,500 more for a car or SUV than a comparable... For pickups, the cost can be $5,000 more for diesel engines designed to last hundreds of thousands of miles. Source: www.extremetech.com

George H.W. Bush hospitalized after fall - Chron.com

Former President George H. W. Bush was "up and talking and out of bed" at a Maine hospital, a doctor said Thursday, a day after the nation's 41st president fell and fractured a bone in his neck while at the family's summer home in Kennebunkport. Doctors said the injury will likely take three to four months to heal. Bush, 91, fell Wednesday and was taken to Maine Medical Center in Portland, where his condition was later listed as fair. Family spokesman Jim McGrath said Bush was "fine" but will need to spend some time in a neck brace. "President Bush will remain at Maine Medical Center to be fitted for a brace to immobilize the injured area, to continue physical therapy, and for further evaluation," McGrath said. The spokesman said Bush's recovery period is not expected to be prolonged. William D'Angelo, a neurosurgeon who is treating Bush there, said the former president was lucky the fracture wasn't more serious. As his wife said, it takes a lot more than this to knock his spirits down. Bush is being treated at the state's largest medical facility, where a children's hospital is named for his wife Barbara. A hospital spokesman said it was premature to speculate about when Bush will be. Source: www.chron.com
