Think of it this way: "The new Mustang has a lot of horsepower...that makes it really fast!"vs"The new Silverado has a lot of torque...you could tow a freaking battle ship with it!"

If you want to sound really smart, whenever someone talks about a car's horsepower, reply that HP is all well and good, but torque is the important measurement. They should all nod in agreement with your knowledge. If someone asks a question about it, roll your eyes and walk away.

Ironically, the higher its torque (to a point) the faster the Mustang will be (at least off the starting line).
I keep thinking you guys are talking about toques.

I have no idea who that is, and given the source of the thread didn't care enough to google him. I'm assuming some talking head for some news channel that I never watch?
no idea who that is and didn't even bother with the google.

How strong it turns or twists.

Pretend you're using a screwdriver/wrench. As you tighten the screw/bolt, you need to use more torque to turn it.So in a car commercial, they are describing that more power is dedicated to turning the axles, thus allowing you to tow more.
I'm not very good at this and am probably way off, but that's how I understand it.

short version: torque is low end pulling power, as opposed to quickness or high end speed. A Harely Davidson has a lot of low end torque, a Ninja has a lot of speed/quickness.be like comparing a Nosetackle to a DB.

Tomás de Torquemada was a fifteenth century Spanish Dominican friar, first Inquisitor General of Spain, and confessor to Isabella I of Castile. He was described by the Spanish chronicler Sebastián de Olmedo as "The hammer of heretics, the light of Spain, the saviour of his country, the honour of his order". He is known for his campaign against the crypto-Jews and crypto-Muslims of Spain. He was one of the chief supporters of the Alhambra Decree, which expelled the Jews from Spain in 1492. Concerning the number of autos-de-fé during Torquemada's tenure as Inquisitor General there is a general consensus among the scholars that about 2,000 people were burned at the stake due to prosecution by the Spanish Inquisition in the whole of Spain between 1480 and 1530.

Three things really bother me about this video:1. Who the hell let's the waitress be in charge of seasoning the food?
2. She carries the tray at head level, in front of her face, so she can breathe all over the entrees
3. She isn't very attractive, certainly not threadworthy
