I was somewhere once (I want to say Midwest) and there was a station where that was their schtick. "Double Take" I think they called it.

Happened in a place near where my parents lived. Not the hotels but the distribution centers. Yeah they generate revenue, but they're ugly and the jobs aren't great. They take up a ton of space too.

https://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/cars/news-blog/ford-recommends-bronco-and-ranger-owners-have-their-nuts-checked-44500651

The Ford Motor Company is recalling a small number of Bronco and Ranger models built this year over what has to be one of the most straightforward defects weve seen in a while. Based on reports issued to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), theres a chance the driver-side lug nuts might not have been tightened sufficiently at the factory.

Having a wheel fly off your vehicle is less than desirable. But the fix for this one is pretty straightforward and probably can be handled by anyone with a torque wrench. Still, Ford said it would prefer affected Bronco and Ranger hold off on driving their vehicles until theyve been inspected and repaired. Theres always the chance those loose nuts could have done some damage if youve been driving on them.

From Ford:


Owners will be notified and instructed to not drive their vehicles until torque has been verified on the front and rear left-side wheel lug nuts. Owners will be given the option to make arrangements with their dealer for mobile repair at the vehicle location (participating mobile service dealers) or to have the vehicle towed to the dealership to have the lug nuts inspected and to make any necessary repairs to the lug nuts, wheel studs and wheels. As an interim action, instructions will be provided for an owner to conduct the torque verification should they have the desire and capability to do so. Instruction for validating lug nut torque is also found in the owners manuals of the affected vehicles. In all instances, the vehicle must be inspected by a Ford or Lincoln dealer for torque validation, component damage and completion of the repair. There will be no charge for this service.

The campaign ( recall number 23V-283) includes 992 examples of the Bronco and 422 units of the Ranger assembled between February 9th and February 13th of 2023. But Ford thinks only 19 percent of the whole actually have improperly tightened lug nuts.

Based on that narrow window, it looks like whoever was in charge of the task was having an exceptionally bad week. Though its likewise possible that one of the impact wrenches used on the assembly line could have been working improperly. Whatever the case, its something youll want dealt with before you do any additional driving if you happen to be the owner of a new Ranger or Bronco.

The NHTSA documents state that the agency has received a field report of at least one wheel coming off and allegedly smacking into another vehicle. However, Ford has said its not aware of any formal accidents or injuries related to the issue. Semantics aside, its good to know nobodys been hurt.

The company will begin notifying owners of affected vehicles by mail in May and will be issuing a special reminder that the impacted models need to be inspected by a technician under the terms of the recall.

Not really my friend but my friend's brother dropped out of HS. AFAIK, he never went back.

Another guy in my class got kicked out 2 months before graduation and was eventually allowed to make it up the summer afterwards. That was an ugly scene.

I feel obviously that some do it just for fan sake or show.

Like I would pull some crazy wild shit for ratings if I could.

IIRC, he started with a straight talk show. But he found that the shows where he had "weird" guests on and arguments and fights did better than the "normal" talk shows. He just pushed the envelope from there.

Not really. China has managed to bully a few poor nations into using their currency and have been hyping it up as if this is the end of the dollar, but financial markets aren't showing even the slightest sign of shifting.
This. Argentina is sending a "superminister" to Washington this week to ask the US for money. They're using the yuan because they quite literally can't afford dollars.
