  1. Doubling over a 40 year period? That's a steal.
  2. Why thank you. Now get back to the kitchen, the Queens hungry and I need more mead..
  3. It might have been the most illogical car in its lineup, but the Lupo 3L was more than just a fuel-efficient city car; it was a statement. The Lupo was the smallest car in Volkswagen's lineup back in 1999. While other carmakers tried convincing customers that hybrids are the future, the German carmaker supported the diesel idea. It worked very hard to develop the most fuel-efficient production vehicle in the world, and it succeeded. It didn't even matter that it was too expensive to justify its fuel-efficiency. Yet, the car was sold in important numbers and certainly not for its low fuel consumption but for its very small CO2 emissions. For starters, the Lupo 3L took its name for its fuel-efficiency. It proved an average fuel consumption of just 3 l/100 km (78.4 mph-US), and that was an outstanding result by any standards. While the exterior looked very similar to the standard Lupo, some body parts were made from aluminum and magnesium to save weight. As a result, it was about 100 kg (220 lbs) lighter than the rest of the range. Inside, there were a different set of seats with magnesium frames and slim padding to save weight. Volkswagen used the sound-deadening materials only for the firewall. It didn't feature air-conditioning or any sound system in standard trim level, but the Tiptronic automatic gearbox was as standard. Under the hood, Volkswagen installed a three-cylinder 1.2-liter turbo-diesel engine. It was lighter and tuned for maximum efficiency. But, at the end of the day, it offered 50% less fuel consumption than its 1.4-liter TDI sibling. https://www.autoevolution.com/volkswagen/lupo/
  4. Nuclear power would be good, if one was able to convince the eco-warriors.
  5. Whatsamatter did Pennywise frighten you?. Anyways, thank you for your OPINION LMAO Duh.
  6. After all the trumped up charges are dismissed, a new charge will follow. In accordance with federal law 69.69 you have been charged with "Knowingly and Willingly Causing a Severe Knicker Twist to all Snowflakes and will be summoned to testiclelfy on a future court date". Trump will plead "no contest".
  7. What effective technology would that be. Please don't bring up solar or wind. They are about as carbon neutral as an anthracite and lignite topped pizza.
  8. You must still be stuck in that Iron Maiden having difficulty typing. Try disabling the cap lock key.
  9. ....and Hamas puts civilians in harms way by hiding their cowardly asses behind them. Now they're facing stuff that shoots back.
  10. There is no amount of money anywhere that can override the truth.
  11. What? Digital Chinese Lanterns?
  12. and the King ordered his Chancellor to go forth and find the best metal smith in the land for the kings army of conquest. Four weeks and a day later the chancellor returned with the best smith in the land. The King asked his name..."Robo sire" he replied. The King asked what deadly weapons could be forged for his magnificent army Robo replied "I can make you earth shattering LMAO's. and of course the hellish Duh's.... my OPINIONS are the finest siege engines in land". and the King said "throw this man into the Iron Maiden, he comes with false pretenses and an hidden agenda...Take him away".
  13. You must getting information from Wile e Coyote and the Acme catalogue.
  14. Who's denying there's a climate? I don't know who wired your brain, they crossed the battery connections.
  15. No need to proclaim any lipstick powers. A tent, golden keys or a velvet jock strap will not do much for crystalised balls. The wand chooses the Wizard. The Elder wand has allegiance to the Orange man, so no luck there. Oh dear, you really are in a quandary If you do need help I have a copy of the Necronomicon..
  16. You are just confusing reality with racism, an all to common left wing failure.
  17. Someone must be holding the Sword of Damocles over your head whilst writing that concocted drivel. Feel free to tell us who or what it is, we can offer help, we have many councilors trained in exorcism.
  18. OMG did anyone say it's a confidence issue? That knee jerk rattled my windows
  19. Lard shortening would be better than butter because it creates a more flaky IRS agent.
  20. I was going to get a bucket to collect all the Lib/Dem tears oozing out of this thread. Unfortunately my bucket refused to participate because the tears would cause severe corrosion.
  21. Actually there is a "cold" plasma https://www.google.com/search?q=cold+plasma&oq=cold+plasm&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqBwgAEAAYgAQyBwgAEAAYgAQyBggBEEUYOTIHCAIQABiABDIHCAMQABiABDIHCAQQABiABDIHCAUQABiABDIHCAYQABiABDIHCAcQABiABDIHCAgQABiABDIHCAkQABiABKgCALACAA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
