maybe, the reason so many cars are white, black, and shades of grey... instead of any color

I just learned that the EPA had pollution monitoring in place at the manufacturers, and certain colors can be sprayed anytime, 24/7. Gold was only allowed 2 days a month. So, maybe that's a big factor in why cars have no colors anymore  (http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2014/05/a-terrific-infographic-source-of-info.html)

I like Mopars, mostly after 1966... because the late 50's and early 60's were pretty ugly design-wise

hilarious, and terrific. Finally with women getting into pro racing in various sports, they're putting a spin on the normal nonsense

If seatbelts are required everywhere in the US, or maybe in the world (no idea) why aren't cars built with an ignition interlock to the seatbelt?

Sure, it would be easy to overcome, but, most people would just put their seatbelts on before starting the car and driving, and isn't that what we want?

Maybe there is some ramifications to your car turning off if you unbuckle your belt, in a parking lot, or to reverse so you can twist your body.

Oh well, just thinking out loud

In other news, an official Mexican government helicopter crossed into the USA in Arizona, and fired two rounds of ammo

5:45am, Thursday June 26th. No reasonable explanation for doing either was given. http://time.com/2933940/mexico-us-border-patrol-helicopter/

That's a Crampton locomotive...the idea was to put the drive wheels behind the firebox so the builder could use larger wheels, and lower the center of gravity. (thanks to Jeff F)
