I’m Pretty  sure Asimo is a top. 

“Otto Pilot”, I think.

Road Test magazine tested both in ‘75. The Rabbit was faster through the handling course. They attributed this to a seating position that gave the driver better control.

Mundane fact: in preparation for the release of the one-wiper ‘76 Scirocco, VW published a sales brochure that had, on its cover, a two-wiper Scirocco with the passenger side wiper removed.

If you can identify a public benefit to you having chocolate ice cream, maybe we should. 

Given its 602cc displacement and twenty-something screaming horses, they needed to cut frontal area anywhere they could. 

The question with EVs was always “Which needs to come first, EVs or charging infrastructure?”  I will always give Tesla credit for realising that the obvious answer was “Both”. 

The cancellation of the Frankfurt show in Feb. 2020 was my wake-up call that this COVID thing is serious. I guess this is my notification that it still is.

Lilongwe, Malawi to Maputo Mozambique by way of Harare, Mutare, Beira and Xai-xai. Only this time on longer notice, in less of a hurry, and without the dying house cat.

More than 80 hours per month isn’t “overtime”. 

First step: Make cops personally responsible for their fuckups.

Damn.  I don’t know where my towel is. 

For the statute to qualify for the monicker “Memorial” Justice Kavanaugh would have to be dead. Which is a nice thought.

With an EV, it is a waste of time to fully charge, because the charging process slows down as the charge level rises. It also causes battery degradation to fast charge over 80-90% or so.

Tetanus (eventually)

Just about control on every Citroen before the Peugeocalyps.

On a Citroen DS, that could be a brake pedal. (if you removed the huge rubber cover). 

Now add a foot-operated parking brake, and you’ve got the chevy van I learned to drive in.

Those Apps can be buggie tho.  And you might not have the necessary App if you’re traveling through an unfamiliar region. I really wish the CCS standard could include plug and charge like Tesla has.  It’s the only feature I envy Tesla owners for. 

It’s not an all-or-nothing situation. Only some locations will be opened up, and those won’t be the ones that are already heavily used. You can also anticipate Tesla’s rate structure to be heavily dynamic., with the price differential between Tesla owners and the public at large growing huge in times of high demand,…
