Consider that the Hyundai buyer in the the early 90s is likely VERY different than the Hyundai buyer in 2022.

INB4 Elon tweets that some journo was “holding it wrong” when he crashes it on a test drive.

No no, this is “disruption”! /s

Gary Larson is a national treasure.

You think the Jalopnik Commentariat is left-leaning? So much so that you’d classify it as “Radical Leftist”. You don’t read the comments around here much, do you?

What the fuck are you talking about? “fellow radical leftists” are calling for drone strikes??

Well thats sorta the point of the protest, they’re sacrificing their livelihood for what they feel is right.

Whoa whoa whoa...This is Canada not the US. They don’t shoot each other there, they’ll just call in the Mounties and they’ll ask everyone very politely to leave. Then the truckers will all apologize profusely. Then the Mounties will apologize to the truckers. Then they’ll all go to the bar and drink some Molson

Having to remove the bumper to replace headlight bulbs is stupid but really common so its not my choice here.

People only tend to say that because they’re sorta the go-to option. Because they’re just really good. They don’t really excel at anything in particular, but they’re really really really good at pretty much everything. And they’re very visceral and mechanical felling, which many cars, even sports cars, just don’t do

And neither of those are going to be deciding factors for people looking at a Porsche EV. Yea they factor in a tiny bit, but you buy a Taycan because of the porsche pedigree (and everything that comes with that).

I think its really good looking. I also recognize its not the most efficient or highest range EV. Still, I would absolutely get one if I had $100k or so that I had nothing better to spend on than a car.

As a life long West Coaster (of the Northern variety, though I was born in Berkeley and lived in Walnut creek in the 80s) I hear plenty of people refer to California as Cali. LA is Ell Ay, yes. And I don’t really call San Francisco “San Fran” but I find the spelling of Francisco sorta confusing (I always seem to type

No kidding, it did sorta drive like some blackout drunk idiot.

This. What is “shitty” about a Taycan? That its not a Tesla? That its not a Prius? That its not a Hellcat? What is it??

Ahh, the old “You’re just driving it wrong” defense. Yea thats always highly successful.

Its really interesting how the youtuber refers to “perfect” maneuvers where the car drives like a half blind octogenarian on their learners permit.

I remember being in awe of the instantaneous MPG indicator on my dad’s E28 growing up. It seemed so insanely futuristic to tweenage me. That and the diagnostic panel with the glowing check button. I swear I pressed that button multiple times every trip. Also I’m pretty sure it never worked anyway. I’m skeptical those

Because not everyone who gets a bike for thier kid cares, and many bikes don’t have any truly critical reviews to read through.

But thats the point. That those cheap bikes are nothing but waste. Trash that might as well go straight to the landfill.
