Watching Season 2 Jack Reacher on Amazon and a pristine Saber Ranger shows up. Parked on the street near the ATM machine, it's in the Teaser, which you can Google and watch for free. Episode 1 has Reacher buying a change of clothes at a thrift shop, as is his SOP, and not having enough cash, goes across the street to the ATM, where he recognizes that a woman is being carjacked.
The Ranger also appears later, not sure when but apparently they paid for so many vehicles and are getting good use from them! There's also an old F150, or maybe it's an old full size Ranger? behind it.
Bottom line, @Tracy Bowman , @OrangeStreak and others on the forum are famous....and nice park job too, right up to the line!

Yeah but its kinda far from the curb.

So 7/10 parking.
I actually lost points on my driver's test for parallel parking TOO CLOSE to the curb :LOL: . My dad and I spent several hours dialing it in just perfectly right up to the curb between two trash cans only for the lady to complain at the DMV that there should be enough room to put your foot down on the street. My opinion? I want my passenger to be able to step right onto the sidewalk.

Is it parallel parking if you pull into the space on the first try because there are np cars around and don't have to go back and forth 37 times?

Pretty sure those DMV examiners are nerd kids in school that didn't get anywhere in life like those video game developer nerds, or NASA nerds.

Just because no cars around doesn’t mean a person doesn’t have to go back & forth 37 times. Everyone knows that! Umm, don’t they??

Have to go back and check out episode one now. Loved the part where he busts in the window of the creep and drags him out followed by a major whup ass. Kid in the backseat was totally enjoying it all. This guy is a good Reacher. Tom Cruise, not so much.

The first episodes of Season 1 were entertaining, but it quickly devolved into a very cheesy/campy 80's action theme.

This actor schtick of portraying Jack Reacher quickly gets old after the first few episodes as well.

Unless you are a small child, the main character never really being in any danger and just effortlessly destroying everyone while looking like Fabio its hard to take it even slightly seriously.

The series comes off as He-man with guns.

But, you do get to eventually see the girl's boobs in season 1. They are nice boobs. I like boobs.

Jack Reacher is a fictional character created by author Lee Child.

LOL.... I like the show even if it's all fictional. I like to view him as the epitome of Good... Big, righteous, intelligent and unstoppable... Yeah, I know... but that's how I like to see it...

I like to watch shows that state, it's a true story or based on a true story but this is NOT that.. this is just entertainment. Sometimes I'm entertained and watch or I don't.

Same with sports, I can't get all that upset when my team loses when all of them are making more money that I am.. lol so, it's just for entertainment.

oh... yeah, boobs are cool, even if a Chevy-guy stated it... :crackup:
