Second, we have a guy come along and says this "aircraft mechanics used beer cans to repair battle-damaged aircraft" are you freaking kidding me with this? No need to go any further with this troll.

Don, for a post that's supposed to be in fun I feel you are being a little offensive here.
I wasn't in the war but I think with a bit of research you would find this is probably true info this fellow posted.
When you had "no" proper material to do a job, you made do with what you could find.
Aluminum cans used to be 2 to 3 times thicker than they are now and would make a fine patch on an aluminum plane (or boat for that matter)
Better than flying around with a 2 inch hole in the side. - Sport45Explorer IIWe've had a few pickups with wood beds. Maybe they were ahead of their time?

I think the Tacoma or the Ranger had a composite bed at one point. I don't know what ever happened with that...
Definitely wasn't the Ranger... I thought it was the Ridgeline, but could certainly be mistaken on that one...
It was the Sport Trac. My BIL has one and it is a composite bed.
Your right... I forgot about the Sport Track too.- dodge_guyExplorer II

Saw a story about this car on CNBC last week. Interesting. You'll know they have arrived when you can walk into a FedEx Office, plunk down your cash and they print you a car! :B - gijoecamExplorerFound the Local Motors link to the 3D-printed car: https://localmotors.com/3d-printed-car/
