I thought "civilian" towing on interstates (and probably other places) was illegal ITFP.  Main thing about vehicle towing and water skiing is never let the line go slack.

LOL doesn’t stop the Mexican convoys

Picture a ratty vehicle flattowing two other shitboxes using some slapped together towbars, usually all with body damage, no taillights, at night on the interstate, and usually about 3-5 of these in a line, all leaving a car auction bound for the border. Sometimes you’ll see it with old school buses as well. You’ll also see them towing three Toyota tacomas but instead of towbars the beds are removed from two trucks and they are “decked” with the second and third ones lashed to the frame rails with rear tires on ground and the two beds precariously stacked in the bed of the third one.

Laws don’t do *expletive deleted*it if not enforced and the cops don’t do anything to a non commercial vehicle.

If you want to maximize fallout you go for ground bursts. If you have no plan to occupy the land poison it. Plus ground bursts are more effective at taking out bunkers and shelters.

Yes, plus ground bursts are easier if you have no delivery system.  That's why I think Vault Tec was behind it   [tinfoil]   :laugh:

Watching it now, end of episode 6 is getting weird.

and it's interesting that they were ground bursts.

Those bombs in the opening scene were awfully low yield (Davy Crocketts?) and it's interesting that they were ground bursts.

I'm about 5 or 6 episodes in.  I'm beginning to think Vault Tec might have been behind the initial blasts, then it got out-of-hand.

The Ghoul is the only really interesting character so far.  Lucy has too much plot armor.  Maximus hasn't been developed enough yet but might be eventually.

The Dog is absolutely gorgeous.

I like the old-timey music, even tho' I don't know some of it. Maybe especially because I don't know some of it but I know a lot of it.

How difficult is it to bypass/delete?

Enough that for the short time I drove them it wasn't worth it.

I despise the AEB system in every car I've driven that's had it.  It triggers at inappropriate times far too often.
