    Isn’t there a Toyota SUV that’s electric? Couldn’t he get that from his own store?

    I think it was a novelty buy, that being said I get where you're coming from. The optics aren't great for a Toyota dealer. Toyota does have the bZ4X but that hasn't got the buzz that the Cyber Truck got.

    Calling those monstrosities trucks is false advertising. Those POS can't do anything a truck can do. Trucks can haul stuff. Those running jokes would probably get stuck trying to drive across my lawn. Then a panel would fall off.

    my dad was a mechanic and kind of a collector...drove my mom crazy

    he had a 1959 Ranchero.....a 1951 Mercury Coupe....a 1963.5 Falcon Sprint; it had a 283 V8, 4 on the floor, and bucket seats. They were cool cars. Of course, if he had let me drive them they wouldn't have been cool for long

    Man...

    You know he's gonna ask all the right questions. You know he's gonna take every precaution. You know he's gonna work hard AF. You know he's gonna have a CHIP on his shoulder...

    I'm SO GLAD Dame is back...

    I hope so. I've been watching that quarterback show on Netflix. Kirk Cousins tore his Achilles. They were showing Kirk getting his stem cells removed in the US and then given to him so they could be injected into his Achilles tendon out of the country. In the US it's okay to remove your stem cells, but illegal to have them injected in you.

    I hope Dame does something similar.

    I don’t think there is much data to indicate “stem cells” could augment Achilles healing in humans. So there are adult human stem cells capable of differentiating into tendon precursors upon injection? Nfw. Sure try it if it makes you feel better but it won’t do shit. All there is out there are anecdotal reports by charlatans. MACI is totally different and for cartilage. Only major fda approved stem cell treatments are, of course, hematopoietic stem cell transplants ie bone marrow transplants etc.

    That decision should be made by medical professionals. Not the legal system.

    That is the medical decision. There is no evidence it works. Doctors can’t just inject patients willy nilly because they think it may do something. It could make it worse. They take an oath to do no harm.
