  1. I love how they say shit like 'An AR or AK can't protect you', then talk about how an AR or AK is super dangerous.

  2. I'm surprised Adam didn't use the drawing for measurements and make a replica from steel or aluminum and ditch the stickers.

  3. A lot of that is the particular heat treating process. Any sword not made by one of the Japanese masters or their apprentices is only katana shaped. Much like champagne comes from Champagne France, and the rest is just sparkling white wine.

  4. Depends on how old. Atari gave zero fucks about the gamers.

  5.  @Doer231  I think her point was that if you're on vacation in a third world country and need to hire a local you should pay them fairly, instead of ripping them off just because you can. That's not providing charity to everyone you meet, it's not being a greedy asshole.
    85
  6.  @lilyofthevalley9566  except you'd have to pay for it, because you wouldn't be able to prove it's flat.
    74
  7.  @user-xr4fw1se9q  It's a combination of both. Frankly, Japanese Katana, Wakizashi, Tanto... they're like old champagne. Everything else is just sparkling white wine and it's just indescribably better somehow, compared to modern katana made by non Japanese trained smiths.

  8.  @paige2166  also for actions of the past, have you ever heard the Marine Corps anthem? 'To the shores of tripoli' the reason the US Marine Corps was to stop BLACK slave traders and pirates. Slavery happened to every race, not just africans. You're not special, stop playing victim.

  9.  @lego4virgo  it CAN be, but GOOD car washes will use car specific soaps from reputable brands. Cheap, crappy car washes will use stuff like Dawn because, well, it works. It's also super cheap and your car will be impressively shiny. However, modern car paint is actually very similar to plastic, which is chemically similar to fat... which is what high quality dish soaps are designed to destroy. If you want to visit a car wash look for a few things. 1, the area should be clean. 2 if it's a friction wash make sure they use closed cell foam brushes. These clean consistently and won't scratch. (Note, these can legally be called 'brushless'. If you want nothing touching your car besides soap and water, find a 'touchless' car wash. 3 See if they advertise a particular brand of soap, like simonize. While they could be using cheap stuff, it is technically illegal (false advertising). 4 ask to see the soap drums. It's likely they'll have some empties laying around, or you may be able to see them from the door to their chemical room. Don't be shocked if they say no. Allowing customers into such an area is a liability hazard. You can at least ask. 5 Check their Google reviews, but tale them with a pinch of salt. Most customers only leave reviews when they're unhappy, whether the car wash did something wrong or not.

  10. The story about the Chevelle 'Template' reminds me of a story my ex's grandfather told me. He was an asshole, but an interesting one. He'd been racing snowmobiles for decades, and in his younger days raced the stock class, sometimes against the factory race teams. Anyway, one of the teams (Yamaha I think) did something similar. They added all kinds of 'cheater' mods to their factory race team's snowmobiles. Well, one rule was that if you were of accused of cheating the techs would go to the local dealership and tear down a brand new one and compare them. So the factory team modified an extra one and dropped it off at the dealership when they got to town. 'Oh yeah! Tear down THAT one!' 😂😂😂
    34
  11.  @paige2166  Whether you're addressing only black slavery (in america I assume, there was and is plenty of black slavery in africa too) You're saying that making racist comments about whites is ok because of 'their actions'. So that makes white people being racist towards black ok because of the moorish and barbary pirates that plagued the Mediterranean and liked kidnapping and enslaving whites? Racism is stupid, no matter who it's coming from, no matter whom it's directed towards. There is no justification for hate and ignorance.
    33
  12.  @paige2166  yeah... a lot of racists whites would say you can call all blacks criminals 'based off of their actions'. It's just as racist generalizing whites based on race as blacks
    31
  13.  @paige2166  some people, usually blacks in the US act like oppression and slavery are unique to black Americans. It just isn't. Black americans are just the most recent that it's been legal.
    28
  14. It's like that school shooting in Florida. Everyone refused to accept the fact that those kids that bullied and tortured the shooter every day carry some blame for the incident. They didn't deserve to die, but he didn't deserve how he was treated either.
    27
  15. Yes, there are unscrupulous businesses, just as in any business...
    23
  16.  @riverlarsen8192  I actually worked in the car wash industry. Those ARE positive benefits, but that doesn't mean those soaps are appropriate for cleaning cars.

  18.  @youhavebeendistractedcongr3162  Couldn't say, I've never played either.

  19.  @cavemanvi  they may have just been made private rather than deleted. The fact is it could be anything. Maybe he accidentally had some sort of private information visible on them. Maybe a costume in background. Maybe they're being re edited. Who knows. Give it some time. Knowing Adam he'll do a video where he explains what's going on soon enough, or at least as soon as he can. Given the reaction one person had to your comment, and that this the second time I've seen it out of two threads, you're being inappropriate. Take the note and rethink your behavior.

  21.  @shawnb789  Actually this country was specifically founded without God as our spine.
    14
  22.  @chroma6947  Well, you clearly don't know shit about swords AND you're picking an argument I didn't make, although I understand the mistake. I never said a katana or anything else is better than a long sword. Second, *being a bladesmith myself*, I know that, historically, long swords were made of 'steel' specific recipes of steel weren't reliable or standardized. Whether or not a sword returns to it's original shape upon bending (which is what properly made swords and springs do) is based upon the heat treatment. Which is more effective in combat is based entirely on the practitioner. You may apologise for your foolishness now.
    12
  23. Hey Bloomie, Joe... the quote is 'The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots *and tyrants*.
    12
  24. Agreed here. Mostly. I'd rather take a proper prescription pill like oxycontin. For me, it's more effective and less likely to cause euphoria. However, with the 'opioid crisis' that the doctors created in the first place it's impossible to get. Kratom is literally the only reason I'm alive.
    11
  25. Any large company has a media time that trolls the web looking for 'notable' content about their offerings. It's a part both marketing and research and development. For niche companies like W, Pagani, Bugatti, etc. it's quite simple. You don't have 1000 youtubers making 'how to change your oil' videos.
    10
  26.  @33lancco  Agreed. OP's point however, is that Joe will sing the praises of marijuana, but goes and decries kratom after one usage. Takes the effort to point out that one can get high on it. Ignores the therapeutic and analgesic properties of it. Thanks to a lot of assholes, and I don't mean the junkies or even the fuckhead rappers, it's essentially impossible for me to get a therapeutic dosage of percocet, and oxycontin is flat out impossible. I'd much rather be on oxycontin. Taken appropriately oxy is non addictive and you will be sober on it. I could be essentially pain free. That's not possible anymore. So I take kratom instead, and if Joe Rogan and others are going to be assholes that's going to get taken away too. Which means I'll die, because kratom is the one and only thing keeping me from killing myself, because the pain is that bad. A lot of people have already killed themselves because their oxy was taken away. I could give two shits about sober. I'd like to live and have a life worth living.

  27.  @abundance1232  a generalization based on race is still racist.

  28. I mean, 'I'm not in a rush' is fine in negotiation, but otherwise.
    8
  29.  @1982MCI  I agree with you provided they're not actually rotting. If they're crumbling to dust... it's kind of a shitty thing to let them die instead of letting someone else enjoy it. I've seen a lot of cars like that sadly.

  30.  @laa0fa502  he is making a wearable raptor (dinosaur, not bird) costume as multiple one day builds. I didn't know they weren't public anymore though
    8
  31.  @chroma6947  I don't care if you're talking about 500 years ago or not, although that would make sense since that's right in the middle of when these weapons were used in combat. What makes you think a long sword has a superior edge alignment? Any properly made sword will instantly communicate where that edge is. Katana's thrust just fine. As do all saber shaped swords. You said 'it's made of spring steel so no bending'. ALL swords bend. Good swords return to straight after bending. It doesn't have to be made from 'spring steel' which is a very generic term, it just has to be heat treated properly. Modern swords are made from a few dozen different monosteels, CPM steels, tamahagane, pattern welded steels... none of them stay bent when properly heat treated. I don't understand what made you think katana's are likely or even more likely to stay bent.
    7
  32.  @CSNCSNCSN  see my reply to the person asking about the raptor videos. There is a right way and a wrong way to tell someone to correct their behavior.
    7
  33.  @raulcasarez2150  people say that because he was portrayed as a gang banger thug instead of a mafia thug. The scenes from the extended version and even the other deleted scenes make him much more 'the joker'. On top of which, he was never going to be as impactful as ledger, phoenix, or nicholson, because he was a side character, not the focus. Also, Phoenix was only barely a batman movie. Change a few names, the characters appearance and it has zero connection to any previous portrayal or the comics. Phoenix'acting was amazing, but it's simply not the joker.
    6
  34.  @a-rex5774  Leto was more 'the joker'than phoenix was.
    6
  35.  @jayhollows5729  Yes, that's exactly what I said. No one deserved to die. Hell, even the pricks bullying the shooter don't. They do carry some responsibility though. You can't push someone until they crack and throw your hands up and say 'I didn't know what would happen'.

  39.  @mortache  Actually, it is worth a lot. That's how we understand each other. Sure, one letter doesn't matter much in this context, but it could mean a lot. Especially if the error is compounded across multiple words. On the other hand, we do all make mistakes and it's not necessary to mock someone for their failing.

  40.  @33lancco  Neither is pot and sober or nor depends, as always, on how much you take, tolerance, strain, and pain level.

  41.  @TheRelaxingBuddah  YouTube doesn't pay much, and Ammo NYC has very few ads. He's making money by the advertisement of his services and especially his products.

  42.  @gpaje  It's Diamond Express Car Wash in Cherry Hill, NJ, USA. However, I no longer work there and I'm betting they've severely reduced the prep process. Probably deleted at least the HVLP soap application. My boss kinda hated it despite how quick and easy it was. It was a bit maintenance intensive because rolling the gun around just absolutely destroyed quick disconnect attachments every few weeks. I am hoping to build my own wash at some point. I've designed several bespoke machines that will provide enough efficiency that for the most expensive package I'll offer a guarantee, if it isn't clean I'll refund the wash, rewash the car, and provide a free detailing voucher. I also would set it up so that customers could choose a touchless option if so desired. The brushes simply wouldn't touch that particular car.

  45.  @Ben-sk7ey  Right? All the people assuming that he works because he needs the income, yet has a classic mercedes sitting in the garage... He could be a doctor or lawyer, working until late in life is not uncommon for those professions. Tradesmen tend to die shortly after retirement, it's not uncommon for them to still be working.

  46.  @happytrails5342  My issue isn't price alone. I can speak to it's value in three ways. One, materials/labor brass and stainless construction. It's probably pretty expensive to make. Two, relative value. Unfortunately, a compass does the same job for four dollars. Three, how well it does that job. Since the splines don't lay flat and nothing is holding your stylus in a rigid manner, its very easy to mark your circle wrong.

  47. I like Ant fine, but he did the stupidest thing I've ever seen a TV mechanic do. He sniffed a clutch. Like 'Mmm... cancer!'.

  48.  @steele_heart77  I've always seen my partners in the same way parents see their children. In general parent's don't love one child more than another. They may love each child differently, but not more or less. When their child goes to school, on a play date, whatever, the parent is happy that their child had an experience that makes them happy. When my partner goes on a date with her metamour I'm happy that she is having a good time. That is compersion. Now, I'm lucky in that I simply don't feel jealousy in my relationships. I've completely absorbed and made compersion a part of myself. The only thing that would make me jealous is finding out that my partner is doing something we haven't talked about. You're also going to have to accept that mistakes happen. If say you've decided that you and your partner can have oral, but not genital sex at least not for the first few weeks. Well, on occasion the hormones may take over. They have genital sex. While this is definitely a problem (even a betrayal), you must understand that it MAY happen. If it does happen it's gotta be discussed. Communication, honesty, and trust are super important. That's why I (personally) don't like 'open, sex only' relationships. I, personally, feel that saying you're going to date and sleep with someone but NOT develop romantic feelings for that person is a recipe for disaster. Some people can do it. Frankly, I can myself, but I don't feel like that can work for most people.

  50.  @jayhollows5729  So I see you're going to continue twisting what I said to fit your own narrative. That's cool. I already clarified once that that is not what I said, and I'm not doing it again. You clearly don't care what I actually said or mean. I suggest going on Amazon or eBay, finding a third grade reading comprehension book, and working through it. 👌🏼

  57. Seems like the woman yelling is the passenger. Besides which, they clearly tried to stop. The car in front cut them off, then just sat there instead of accelerating to the speed limit. Also, you'll notice they only had about two car lengths in which to stop, which is not 'plenty of room'.

  72. Those brushes are a closed cell foam. Even without soap and water for lubricity they don't scratch. I worked at a car wash with these brushes. The first week I was there I detailed my car, waxed, polished, the whole nine yards. After washing my car through the tunnel for 18 months (and before detailing it again) I didn't have a single swirl mark. Now, the car was blue not black, but still. I know how to inspect paint and it was fine.

  81. I would guess that Adam probably drops the shavings in his community recycling pick up, or perhaps leaves it outside his shop. Ask anyone that deals with metal, you have no issue finding someone to take your metal scrap. Except steel, steel is so cheap scrappers generally only bother taking it if they're there anyway.

  82. It was Clarkson's. May and hammond destroyed it as payment on a bet.

  86.  @camquest6108  What labeling BS exactly? I call it like I see it. She WAS and IS playing victim, in fact she's continuing to be racist and doubling down on her racism. 'White and Blacks experience racism differently. She can get the fuck out of here. Humans experience prejudice the same way. She's not even blaming the right race. African slaves were purchased by Jewish ship captains, who bought them from Arabs, who bought them from other Africans, and often as not sold to Jews in the U.S.

  93.  @mortache  Again, I'm not judging them. I said that there is value in proper spelling. That has nothing whatsoever to do with that person's command of English, or any other language. Spelling correctly has value in any language. Also, LIKE I ALREADY SAID, mocking someone for a small mistake, especially when the correct meaning was readily apparent, is improper. I suppose you're right in a way. My spelling and grammar were perfect and you still couldn't figure out that you were agreeing with something I said.

  102.  @EGGINFOOLS  He's taken them out on other projects. I'm guessing that, being an SUV he just had reasonable reach without removing them. It may be that the carpet is going to be replaced, so the extra effort was less worthwhile... lots of variables.

  112.  @TheAssassin409  I like My Mechanic too, my only real issue is that he doesn't technically 'restore' things. He removes all the casting marks and such, which isn't restoration. Don't get me wrong, I prefer it that way myself, but a proper 'restoration' will look exactly as it did when it was sitting on the shelf brand new, preferably using as much of the original as possible, only replacing parts when absolutely, positively necessary.

  116. Agreed. Phoenix' acting was flawless, but the character just wasn't the Joker. I'd say Ledger, Hammel, and Nicholson all did an excellent job, albeit in different ways. I even liked Leto's performance. The real problem with Leto is the way he hit the cutting room floor. The character and movie are much better in the extended cut.

  117.  First Last  What exactly made you think I'm sensitive about it? I answered your question. You can be proud of your culture and heritage without glorifying ALL of it. For instance as a German descendant I'm not proud of the Nazi era, I am proud of the way the country has pretty universally rejected that idiocy. I'm not proud of the way they've endorsed the Green party. As for comparing the Nazi Party with Rome, it's a completely false equivalency. For one thing, whatever country was in power at the time, if had been the finns, or russians, or spanish, the empire would have fought it's wars in a pretty similar fashion. While we can look at certain practices or people as evil or immoral, it's rare that that person considers themselves evil. Yet, it was common (amongst the highest ranking Nazis) to literally worship evil. They called it the Vril and it was like a combination of Wicca and The Force, except pure evil. As for your last comment, why do you think it's acceptable to be an asshole just because you're in the YouTube comments? Or that my objecting to your asshole behavior makes me weak? You have a right to say what you want, but if you're goung to be insulting you're still an asshole. Which isn't socially acceptable *anywhere*. The only reason why trolls and keyboard warriors like you pull it on the internet is because you're reasonably certain no will punch you in the nose. I tell cops with guns to go fuck themselves to their faces when their assholes. I'm sure as hell not scared of you.

  118. The only thing I would recommend is that when you use Lucas oil, pour the Lucas oil in halfway through. A: it will help wash the Lucas into the pan (putting 1/4-1/2 in first will help keep it from sticking to the pan. B: you can use the standard oil to 'wash out' the Lucas container, so you get slightly more of it into the engine.

  119. As an Iron Worker, 90% of the items I was asked to make by a 'designer' I had to redesign or say no. Conversations that went something like this: 'Make this (drawing)' "What is it?" '(This item)' "I can't" 'Why not?' "Because what you've drawn won't operate as (this item) in this physical universe." 'Oh.'

  126.  @mellun  I doubt he's making 'thousands'. For some reason people think that every YouTuber is making tons of money. There are very specific rules as to how and when you get paid. For instance, if it's a 30+ second skippable ad (which most people skip after 5 seconds), it has to be watched for a minimum of thirty seconds or you get nothing. Next, most of the money goes to YouTube, not the content creator. Add in all the people that use an ad blocker or jump to the end and restart to avoid all of the ads really cuts into the revenue. Lastly, Larry is REALLY easy on the ads. Lost of creators have ads every 5 minutes, and this video only has three. All of that aside, creating content takes a long time. There's all the time added to details in order to film it, the time spend recording voice overs, days spent editing. Should we not get paid for our hard work? I think Larry probably would keep recording videos, even if he got no ad revenue. The excellent advertisement for his products aside, it's clear that Larry really is a fanatic about detailing, and truly appreciates his fans.

  127. Those jerks just want to watch muck get power washed off. If they only want that, 'The Detail Geek' does exactly that content. The rest of us are here to learn from a guy that's not only passionate, smart, and experienced, but one of the best detailers in the country.

  129.  @gpaje  Again, we used closed cell foam (brand name neoglide) brushes. The dirt issue you're talking about only applies to cloth brushes. Neoglide brushes don't absorb soap, water, or dirt. They also spin at sufficient RPM to fling off removed dirt from your own vehicle. I also added a multistep prep process to our wash process. Step one, blow off loose debris such as leaves. Step two, rinse with free flowing water, bottom to top, then top to bottom. Step three, apply a thick (mixed 1:75 instead of 1:150-250) soap solution to the vehicle with a painter's HVLP gun. This gave the soap's chemical surfactants extra time to work, encapsulated dirt particles and lubricated the paint. For extra insurance. I am in fact picky, and my car washing/detailing/car painting experience reinforced that. If you'll check my community tab you'll see I just posted a pic of my paint. Obviously a camera can hide a lot of crimes, but there's no visible scratching. Edit: Of course, I washed weekly or even twice a week, which helps significantly.
    2
  130.  @ArjjunSingh  Not really. This is a modern wash, the neoglide brushes don't cause swirling.
    2
  131.  @drink15  in the tri state area? That same company has two others, equally new, one in Jamison, pa and another in morton, pa. The most important things to look for those neoglide brushes or touchless services. Personally, I prefer the 'basic express' format, where I finish the towel drying myself. Attendants rarely change towels enough.
    2
  132.  @nickking1510  It depends upon the type of brushes. The newer closed cell foam brushes used in modern washes don't leave swirl marks.

It's really irrelevant how high the quality is, it's just a fact. What some people are missing is that '18 months' includes the time to make the steel and heat treat it. Each one might take 18 months start to finish, but they'd have dozens in progress all at once. The pieces that took the longest were more about the art than functionality. I hope this helps.

  146. Your English is better than a lot of native speakers I've met. I've seen a lot of YouTube detailers put out 15 minute videos with 5 minutes of information in them. Larry's 20 minute videos have an hour's worth of information in them, and Larry is clearly very knowledgeable. Some people complain just to make themselves feel better. They have no intelligence, no ambition, no talent, no success, so they try to pull down those that do. It's very cringe inducing, petty behavior.

  156.  @brettrun8575  Actually, it isn't that easy. Is it *possible*? Yes. I don't know what country you're in, but the USA has the lowest upward mobility of almost any first world country (better than India, though them being first world is debatable). Some people have health issues, some have trauma. Some just have bad luck, and some can push through all of that. Take myself. If had bad luck, very bad health, and trauma. I just had part of three spinal discs cut out last month. On the plus side, it seems to be helping, and I'm getting a (very) small settlement from the trauma. Between the two I'm starting a business, and in four or five years, if nothing happens to me maybe I'll be to afford on of the cars I clean. If what you're saying is true and you've accomplished what you've claimed without help than good for you. I'm glad you succeeded, but the fact is that you come off like a callous ass. Especially to those that have worked hard, and have at least avoided making bad decisions.

  238. There's also getting your salesman to actually be your advocate. A lot of the time they only make commission, and only on the 'front end'. The cash you put down for or toward the car. I had a friend of mine go with his parents to purchase a new car. It was a brand new, first model year, Toyota Sequoia. They are NOT having trouble selling them and thus don't want to offer deals. They test drive it, ask for ALL the options. Base sticker was $37k something, with options it went up to $48k something. So my friend's mother says 'I'll pay $35k'. The sales guy is now super confused. 'Uh, what? Did you want a base model? We were talking about a fully optioned one.' 'No,' she replies, 'I'll pay 35, for that car.' 'I can't make that work.' Pulls $35,000 in CASH out of her pocket book. 'You don't understand, I'll hand this to you, for that car.' ''I'll go write you up and get the detailers to finish cleaning it for you.' Because he, personally was making 10% or whatever and that's more income than he'll get, likely for the rest of the month. He made it work.

Personally, I lightly clean the exterior (depending on how dirty it is) to prevent getting exterior dirt on my clothes or the car while doing the interior. Then interior. Then go hard core (if needed) on the exterior. If not, another quick touchless once over for maximum cleanliness. But I'm a bit OCD.

  284.  @Titanoooo  what in the hell are you on about? Also, I sad Leto was a decent joker, not the best. In the longer directors cut he's significantly better than in the cinematic cut. His whole mailing people sex toys and such schtick was stupid annoying, but they did actually follow the joker's story, just updated to the modern world. A character like that created modern day is much more likely to be like leto's joker than say, Nicholson's joker. Leto did a fairly decent job of acting. It was a bit over the top, but joker is an over the top character. Look at phoenix' joker. It has zero to do with any of the creation stories used so far. Excluding ledger's joker which was a little different: He isn't any sort of criminal, which all of the other jokers were. All of the other jokers started out relatively sane and were driven insane by a disfiguring accident. For which they blamed batman. Phoenix' joker was just an ordinary crazy guy. If you changed a couple names and changed his costume a bit no one would think of it as a movie related to batman. Hell, he even became the joker while Bruce wayne was a child, which is completely different. In all the others he good reason to blame batman for his disfigurement, which is why he's so obsessed with batman in the first place. On top of which, the ending scene leaves the door open for most or all of the movie to have been nothing more than a schizophrenic delusion. Why do people say Leto's joker was bad? Ok, he was annoying on set. Has zero to do with the actual movie. His gang banger persona, which is more appropriate to a modern interpretation. It isn't the forties anymore, and him being an italian mafioso doesn't make as much sense. The tattoos are wholly appropriate for this interpretation of the character. Last is his relationship with Harley. Ok. For that we have to compare it to the animated series where she was introduced. The creation story for harley is spot on. People say he cared for her too much, but I disagree. It's true that Hammill's joker treated her as somewhat disposable, however, he also rescued her on several occasions. In the episode where harley left him to try going straight he was beside himself without her. Every bit of that makes sense. So yes, Leto and the interpretation he acted out was fine. Not the best by any stretch of the imagination, but decent. Phoenix' version was clearly the worst 'joker' even though it was brilliantly acted and written. It's a great movie, just not a great batman universe movie.
    1
  285.  @Titanoooo  the shit he did on set, sending dead animals, condoms, sex toys, etc. WAS stupid as hell and inappropriate, but it has nothing to do with his actual performance. Also, Leto was good, even great, in other films.

  288.  @f2p781  i don't know exactly at least twice as much. It includes Harley's origin story. Actually most of the extra footage is joker and harley. I know it's a bit of a meme to say that adding a little bit of footage completely changes the tone of the film, but this really does.
    1
  289.  @f2p781  no it isn't, but it is enough to give the character, actually both characters, significantly more depth. I can't say I hated the original, but I didn't particularly like it. I'm telling you, if you don't watch the extended cut you're cheating yourself.

  347. I have to say, you're absolutely right about the therapeutic value of something like building a Lego (or Mega Bloks) kit. A lot of Psychiatric hospitals (or hospitals that have psychiatric wards), have something they call 'occupational therapy', which is not physical therapy for an occupation, but therapy by occupying your time. Things like coloring, and listeninf to music, meditation are all very common, but I've never seen nolling and Lego. For those that are interested, consider contacting your local hospital and asking about donating lego kits. It could really help a lot of people. By the way, one way Mega Bloks is better than Lego... they include a blok/brick 'wrench' with each kit.

Still, he DID give a perfectly valid reason for why he didn't remove the seats. Also, he's a detailer, not a mechanic or a fabricator. As such, the sort of restoration required is outside Larry's skill set. Ie; not his job. Aside from the reason he gave, attempting to pull the seat could potentially cause damage, not something he'd be eager to risk at any time, but especially not right before a sale.

The 'passing lane' varies from state to state and is, frankly, stupid. You still can't legally exceed the speed limit, and 99% of traffic is doing the speed limit or (illegally) 5-10mph over. It's just artificially reducing the size of the highway and slowing traffic.
