I think it's rather awesome that Millie gets to drive a truck.. as long as no one I like is in her path. <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo--> I would suppose that either Isolde might still be managing the pedals, possibly with her tail or something, or the pair have something else holding the pedal down (Gangway! We got a brick on the gas pedal!) <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... iggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Heh, a tail would be nice to have even if you CAN reach the pedals, since there are three of them, and only two feet <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo--><br><br>I still say they would have stalled the truck out too many times to get away, but it's a comic, so I'm just nitpicking <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

It otta get real interisting when Millie's mom finds out what millie has been doing. (Assuming It goes that route)

[Zylo]

Maybe Isolde should work the pedals and Millie steer.

[NHJ BV]

I think Llewellyn will be involved.<br><br>BTW, once they cross the US-GL border there's nothing the police can do about the theft of the truck <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

[Gizensha]

Is the moat within the border or outside of it, considering I doubt they'll be able to avoid winding up at the bottom of it o_o

[Burning Sheep Productions]

Why doesn't Isolde slam her tail on the accelarator and off they go?

[Softpaw]

Accelerating too fast will burn out the clutch. Accelerating too slow will stall the engine. Upshifting too soon will either damage the shifter or throw a gear, or stall the engine, upshifting too late will over-rev the engine. Downshifting too soon will strip a gear and/or lock up the drive wheels, downshifting too late will stall the engine. Using the brakes too often will overheat them and make them essentially useless, hitting them too hard will drain the air tanks and force the emergency brakes to lock in, and/or will cause the wheels to lock up.<br><br>And so on, and so on. I'll shut up now, you get my point.<br><br>Must...resist...further...nitpicking... <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo-->

[Gizensha]

With Millie and Isolde, you think they'd ever use the breaks?

[Ozymandias]

Brakes? Brakes are for the weak!

[simon]

Yeah, REAL people get out and stop the vehicle with their bare hands!

[Gizensha]

Or just use the wall/cliff in front of them to do it for them.
