I keep getting GMC ads, SEE IT, RESERVE IT. I like my truck, it requires me to steer it, which I like. The new trucks are pushing self driving mode. Not a fan.
A question for some.... if you are inebriated, can you put this in self diver mode and get a ride home... free from a DUI ticket? Anyone.... NorCal.... Anyone?

Keep your truck. Call an Uber when you are drunk and save the $50-60K.

Nowhere near self-driving, but I like my “wake up, moron” alerts (lane deviation, vehicle in blind spot, etc), and parallel parking with a backup camera is amazeballs. First time since front-wheel drive came out that I did a perfect parallel park without the back-forth crap.

But yeah, in case you were serious, cab or Uber if you’ve had too much fun.

Not serious but if I was a betting man, I would say this will be a court case before too long. Guy passed out and car driving him home.

Oh... the bears pick me up when I need a ride... they got trails in the woods, no issues.

The prop person should be sweating. The gun was supposed to be loaded with blanks. It was going to be (or actually was, I guess) used in a scene.

Blanks can fail. Especially if they are not stored correctly. They can fragment and come out like tiny bullets.

Right. And how is anyone is supposed to be able to determine that? Serious question. Do you take one apart for every box and inspect it, do some test firings at a target, or what?

By the way, I’ve read at least a dozen mysteries where this was the setup for the crime under the guise of an accident. Surreal when life imitates fiction.
