Maybe true. But maybe not. It all depends on how things are setup There’s a lot of “hot rodding” going on and that control center might allow the battery to output much more kW than Chevy specified.

See my other reply. This battery pack can not supply 400 kW at all. Highest output value for the 16 kWh pack is 136 kW. Other sources put it at 110 or 120 kW only. That Tesla motor has to sip through a straw.

And off the table, straight in to the potted ficus!

I bet this thing accelerates (in speed and in sound) like a slot car from our youth. 

If only I had more stars to give....

As always, fuck dealerships.

Retardant can work well for reinforcement of lines prior to burnout operations. It’s not really that effective when used in direct attack operations, as in dropping directly onto the fire or “in the black” in wildland fire speak.

There’s certainly some problems with Phos-Chek but I guess better than everything burning to a crisp. Note that it is actually not supposed to be dumped directly on the fire.  It is actually meant to create a fire line (a barrier to keep the fire from spreading). 

Lol absolutely. Not only do the current gen Porsches look fantastic, but literally the only manufacturer that clings more tightly to their historic design principles is Morgan. Some people are just noxiously nostalgic though.

It’s fucking crazy, right? 

This shit is so funny to say about Porsche lmao

Very good point that probably isn’t brought up often enough.  I know what I’m going to do before I do it.  I can only react to a self-drive system *after* it starts to fuck something up.

Maserati thought wayyy too highly of their brand cache with that pricing. It is hard to imagine any Maserati breaking the $200k mark at this point, no matter how well it performs or the on-paper specs.

Still trusts self-driving software that almost got him killed, and would have if he didn’t stay alert, stay engaged, stay driving

he remained a “happy customer” and that he still trusts his Tesla’s “self-driving”

I would rather they PAY her for it lol she maintained that vehicle better than most, and she should be compensated for that. I don’t care that the car is going to a museum, I care that she’s not getting paid for it. 

That’s your non-Japanese upbringing not understanding Japanese culture.

I dunno, in this particular case, keeping a couple pristine original RX-7s around in Mazda’s collection is a worthy cause.

We should have pretty strict size restrictions on how big civilian vehicles can be. Trucks these days can’t even fit to established parking spaces. They block other vehicles’ sight lines on the road, they are unable to see pedestrians or other obstacles and hazards over their massive hoods, and their overcompensating…
