The Volvo is the only reasonable suggestion above.

Really? Because in Ohio, 93 has been hovering around $3 for a while now.

Stamping metal is a helluva lot more intensive and expensive than simply making molds from one single metal hood to create a crapload of fiberglass or carbon fiber hoods. You could continually make molds off that metal hood as well, when they inevitably get torn up. Really not that difficult, we do stuff like this on…

They only need one. Then they can make molds from it for fiberglass or carbon fiber.

Middle-class elites? Those don’t exist in America anymore. As a guy who was raised lower-to-middle middle class, literally nobody in the middle class can afford a fucking 7-series sized car. Even just kinda rich people with $500,000 houses in Ohio still drive Chevy Traverses because they have kids to feed. If anybody…

What am I supposed to be looking at here.

Why did US and Canadian soldiers practice this?

Not as pretty as the Pacifica. That thing is a minivan I would actually drive as a single dude. Super nice road trip machine.

It’s not a generational problem. It’s an internet publishing culture problem. There’s a difference between a journalist and a blogger, and the random ass people Jalopnik and other blogs hire to write like a child rarely achieve the status of “journalist”.

The best thing I’ve ever seen are those Autosocks. Pretty stellar and simple.

They could hear the case, then rule that the plaintiffs pay immense damages to the defendant garage guy for all this nonsense they’ve caused him.

So when is the county or state prosecutor going to file charges against these people for intimidation or threatening or something like that? Escalating the lawsuit when they are clearly in the wrong must be criminal in at least one way. At minimum, the garage guy can sue these people for harassment and win easily.

Yeah, having a backup is always key. I really don’t like the idea of autonomous cars that don’t have auxiliary manual controls, just like airplanes. There are plenty of occasions outside of takeoff or landing when the pilots might need to control things manually and I think that’s even more likely on the road. The big…

It only allows the Arkansas state government to choose not to accept Oklahoma identification (a power which could possibly be derived from the 10th amendment) insofar as the Federal government will allow that to happen, because the commerce clause means that it is the Feds’ job to regulate, i.e. make regular, i.e.…

It’s not about whether they are eliminated or not, it’s about facilitating interstate commerce which is what the commerce clause is about. This new rule heavily restricts interstate commerce which is obviously against the spirit of that clause and therefore is likely unconstitutional. The Supreme Court will probably…

The original definition of “regulate” in that clause meant to “make regular” or “to facilitate”. It means to allow it to happen, which is the opposite of regulating it out of existence. So no, this new rule is not in the spirit of the commerce clause.

It probably wouldn’t be wifi. It would probably be satellite feeds that go beyond what Google already does with traffic data. It would transmit info to the individual car level. That way, every car knows what it happening everywhere and they can all plan a considerably amount of time in advance. I suppose they could…

Yes. Studies have proven that going too slow is actually more dangerous than going too fast for the speed of traffic. Going to slow causes rolling road blocks, frantic lane-changing, increases road rage and generally makes other drivers impatient and anxious.

It’s called “state sovereignty” and it’s a key aspect of how our republic operates. The US was never designed to operate as a single country, but as, well, united states.

As far as I can tell, this move is a violation of the Commerce Clause and is therefore unconstitutional. The Feds have no authority to ban interstate commerce when using perfectly valid State identification. They also don’t have the authority to tell States what qualifies as valid identification.
