It’s articles like this that are costing us important elections, like the one that just happened, and it’s because of people like you specifically. Stop doing what you’re doing. People like to drive, this is a driver’s website. People on small islands choose cars over public transport just because they like it. …

In the US I don’t think we ever had a cool Celica. The last gen was tiny and underpowered for its aggressive looks, they were meant for high school girls as were the ones before it, basically it was a Ford Probe competitor. The Celica GT-Four is the only recent cool one and it wasn’t sold in the US. That people are…

If his executive functioning is malfunctioning, maybe a nice beating would psychologically help the lower order parts of his brain to better understand that what he did was wrong, and he needs to change his ways as there is immediate negative feedback to his chosen actions.

The article mentions there had been a bunch of burglaries in the neighborhood recently, and then minimizes that by saying the vigilantism was caused by a stolen package. It was caused by being in an environment where there’s a lot of burglaries and now they’ve caught a criminal likely involved in those other crimes…

Musk wouldn’t be too big to fail if Boeing could get its shit together. Instead they’re one of many dysfunctional companies in the US that can’t get anything right, and you can point at short sightedness over quarterly profits as to a big reason why. There’s something wrong in the American system of business lately a…

More likely he’ll blow up his diaper and ruin more white couches 

I always liked the idea of PHEV’s but I guess you are paying more for more complexity in the drivetrain department, and as EV costs begin to fall it might not be worth the tradeoff. If I had a PHEV I’d probably mostly charge at home and use gas for long trips, but that might also lead to a decline in charging at all.…

It’s about being able to afford attorneys. Musk or Trump can afford effectively infinite attorneys and delay justice indefinitely, so anyone who wants to come after either of them knows it’s going to be a huge PITA. This delays charges being filed if they even get filed at all. That’s why there’s 2 or more systems…

Private Equity got them. Likely PE investors bought Hoonigan with borrowed money, then loaded Hoonigan up with debt, so the company pays the bill for its own purchase, and then some. Look into what happened to Toys R’ Us.  Ought to be illegal.  In Hoonigan’s case it’s Ken Block’s thing and he’s passed on, so if…

The N Vision 74 looks great. If they can get it out while the retro 80's thing is still going on they could potentially sell a lot of them. It feels like Hyundai’s answer to the Nissan Z if the price is right. Assuming it would be a gasoline hybrid or EV, hydrogen isn’t ready and may never be.

That’s right, although I’d say they are real cities in Texas they’re just not the normal layout. And they never will be, not in several more lifetimes. The cities are already built, the public transportation infrastructure needs to accommodate what’s already there and nothing that’s presently available is a good fit.…

Texas isn’t dense like a lot of places with major public transportation infrastructure. I’m not sure how you’d even approach it. Texans visit LA and comment on how dense it is there. LA isn’t that dense. In Texas it’d take you 10 minutes to walk from the front door of a Target store to the end of the parking lot,…

Scammed ‘em back

Musk endorsing Trump just doesn’t make any sense. He clearly doesn’t like Biden but that doesn’t explain everything that’s going on. To be not percieved as a lefty would help sell some trucks, but the move to the weird part of the right wing is just strange compared to his pre-Twitter purchase behavior. You don’t…

The LC is the only car I’d buy with that stupid grill, but yeah it’d be better without it. Forcing every car design in a brand to have a similar face is just lame. There has to be a money reason why they do it but I’m not a fan.  Corporate grills suck.  

This would be less objectionable if the base was a C7 Corvette which already looks weird anyway

If this really is a Lingenfelter car then it might be worth taking all that junk off for fun or possibly profit. But given all the other false claims glued onto this poor car it’s going to take some serious investigation with a knowledgeable person to establish what’s true. Also Corvettes are great, especially C5's…

Chrome has jumped the shark stylistically, and no doubt it’s a hazardous chemical, glad to see it go.  

Theres’ a lot of cars with “chrome bumpers” now where the exhaust comes through the bumper and the bumper has a big chrome section, it’s common on Mercedes SUV’s and I saw it on a Ford as well. Looks terrible, but there you go.

I’m glad that worked out for him, and I don’t know the details about what he had going on financially, but no f’ing way would I ever gamble like that. Then again he’s now the CEO of Ford, so he’s playing a different kind of game than me. If you own a real Shelby Cobra and work in the car industry, that might help…
