Nissan Pathfinder Commercial (S664)
From: gattica30 on 9/23/2009 |
If you are considering a Nissan
Pathfinder or any
other car with an 'independent
front suspension',
this little commercial should
prove to be helpful
in making your purchasing decision.
An 'independent front suspension'
system, is when
one front wheel of a vehicle
hits a bump or pothole,
it will move up or down to compensate
- while the
other wheel remains steady.
Both wheels are
independent of each other, and
hence the expression.
Watch the attached video, a German
commercial for
the Nissan Pathfinder, to find
out exactly how this
works. This gives a moving
experience which should
benefit your understanding of
this piece of engineering.
It's arguably the best explanation
I've ever seen.

Canadian Speed Control (S664)
From: ft.apache on 9/26/2009 (in Canadian) |
How's this for "speed control"?
I don't know about you,
but this would slow me down!
People slow down and try to
"straddle" the hole, then breath
a sigh of relief, they
completely cleared it!
This is actually a speed control
device that is in use.
Scroll down and look at all
three pictures. And it is
much cheaper than speed cameras!
