I think the bamboo board could be considered a seat. Plus the additional hand rails and foot rests in the back. I think that law was meant to prevent people from sitting on handlebars or riding on pegs.
And dogs of any substantial size are difficult to get on bikes without training. You could easily fit a Chihuahua or Yorkie on there, but a lab or retriever would be tough and need to be taught to not jump down mid ride.
Yep, my ford took 25 minutes to do the update that added Android Auto, after 2 minutes of downloading it to a USB stick. The car only has USB 2.0, so that could be a factor though
I think the one and only benefit would be that they can have carts going both directions at the same time using the existing 2 rail system, without building a second pair of rails. I’d love to see some sort of bike add-on that would let me do this with a bicycle.

I don’t think you’re wrong about any of the rules or laws, and I don’t generally like to conflate electric motorcycles with ebikes; my point was that persons fleeing the scene of a crime may not be following those rules and laws for ebikes.
As I understand it, they’re bring your own ROM. Like a standardized scaffold to put upgrades like widescreen and RTX and mods onto the building that Nintendo sells or rather sold.
I was a little disappointed they didn’t show letters that were removed from the modern Latin alphabet but existed in the 2000 years since Rome, like thorn.
Maybe I’m not like most consumers but my ford phev is on electric 80-90% of the miles I’ve driven on it.
Then again, I heard from a family member. With a 4xe that the dealer had to convince them to plug it in when the low battery for long periods of time was causing problems.
I wish ford would do that but I don’t think they will. They’re only bringing the phev ranger to Europe, and iirc started they had no plans to make the maverick a plug in. And the f150 already has the electric version in the lightning.
Scavenger’s Reign was my favourite animated show from last year. Hopefully Netflix gives it a season 2. At the very least it should get more views being on Netflix now.
Damn, no 2nd season announcement yet? It was a great show. If you haven’t seen it go watch. Now. It’s like a mildly creepy adult adventure time. Just bizarre and full of wonder, but still able to carry a great storyline. Seriously, go watch it.
I think exclusive content is only a symptom of the larger problem, which is that we’re letting movie production companies run their own (new-fangled versions of) theaters again.
