ford accidentally made the perfect vehicle for 95% of people living in the suburbs and priced it as the cheapest vehicle they sell and I’m worried it’s gonna get killed off in two years because it hurt sales of the ranger and f150

nah the people who buy an f150 wouldn't be swayed by the mav. the f150/f250 is still both a status symbol and an excellent work vehicle. the mav will go to people who might've bought an suv instead imo though it would still be a great work truck for smalltimers who can't afford the f150, too

in aviation, and especially in the military, aircraft reliability is often summarized as a ratio of flight hours to maintenance hours. an average fighter jet like an F/A-18 has about a 10 to 1 ratio -- 10 man-hours of maintenance are required for every hour of flight. for a airliners, where maintenance costs are obviously a major concern for the operators, it's usually about 3 or 4 to 1. for the F-14, with its complicated radar and 1960s flight computers and variable geometry wing, it's 25 to 1. note that this doesn't mean you put the plane out of service for a day every time it lands -- it's an average. in normal use there will be some straightforward checks and maintenance tasks between operations, and periodically the plane will go back to the maintenance facility where it's completely taken apart and maintained over days or weeks. stealth aircraft are notorious maintenance hogs. the F-117 required 125 hours of maintenance for each hour of flight, and fully half of that was maintaining its stealth features. in order for the radar-evading skin to work, each of those sharp facets must be perfectly smooth, perfectly flat, and exactly aligned with every other one, without a single gap between them even a millimeter wide. as it turns out, making that sort of shape is just...really, really hard. in the development of the F-117, the fabricators had to invent entirely new methods of workholding and fixturing just to set the complex angles of the facets with the required accuracy. anyway, here's something unrelated. https://twitter.com/RyanZohoury/status/1512212226249314307?s=20&t=MxN6QgEzyVjbUjvoPm2xPg e: once again, foiled by my own goddamn desire to make my posts into stories. i can't help it. i just like to take people on a journey

I believe this one has the bus-wiper attached, so it may be a different unit. My FB and Instagram have been weird all week, as I know several of the artists who were contracted to make the Giga Texas Cyber Rodeo happen. So there have been a lot of fawning behind-the-scenes pictures of the event setup. It seems like Elon has decided that if he throws enough money around, he can buy the admiration of the arts scene in this town. Sadly, he may be right.
