While zero to 60 creates a set of problems and limitations, the 60 to zero
time is pretty important too. I'll have to look, but I think my CJ5 ought
not even be towing stuff. I think the max weight for towing is so low that
hardly anything can be towed. I do tow an Army trailer with my camping gear,
but the weight of the fully loaded trailer has got to be under 1000 pounds.

Boat docks can be a source of fun every so often :)

Watching the stupid is also one of the reasons why I like Oceano Dunes
(Pismo Beach) during the winter months :)

I've never seen it that deep, maybe because I've been there in the
winter, preferring Glamis, the sand capital of the world, during that
season:

That's a helluva way to wash your car. I suppose some people just like
the water. :)
What are they actually doing, other than the obvious?

i think it's a Densa meeting.
You could probably set up a mobile oil-change/bearing repacking business
there, but they would just wait until the bearings rust and denounce their
vehicles as "high maintenance junk".
