It’s okay, but the aftermarket companies do some nicer work.

Beside the branding stuff...the new 500E is massive. Not just actually being bigger than the last one, the new one has such a chunky design that makes it look very big on the road. I wish it was smaller.

How adorably European - aka *small*. This is how you do it right:

I’m confused. How are car seats driving down birthrates?

FYI, “thrusters” is inaccurate. They only had one thruster fail to ignite, and none shut down prematurely this time.  Maybe this validates Boeing’s workaround to the overheating problem; maybe not. What’s interesting (and what your article failed to mention) is that this one is a different type of thruster than the…

The problem for NASA, as well as DoD, is what are their other domestic options? There really aren’t any.

I would really love some reporting on how Boeing was awarded $4.2B for this contract while SpaceX was awarded only $2.6B and SpaceX is saving these astronauts.

I really wonder about all the military spending and what our ROI on it really looks like by continuing to fund Lockheed, Boeing, General Dynamics, Raytheon,…

I think car manufacturers are frankly too insulated.  They design for themselves, and also for their reviewers, which is also a small sample set.  I don’t think they spend much of any time listening to what “average people” think about the cars they drive.  And if they offer features that people end up taking in their…

most customers don’t appreciate technology [...] unless they can see a clear benefit to them

I’ve been lurking on the Fisker forum on Reddit. There are ex-Fisker service people who are trying to get access to the in-house software which would be huge for people stuck with these. 

At that price, you could buy a spare for repair.

I am truly happy for this. It’s literally the only thing keeping automakers fromburing window controls 3 menus deep on the damned touchscreen.

Having been into cars and car news since the mid 1980's I remember this well. lots of “what about the children” just like back up cameras, tire pressure monitors, and gas tanks inside the frame rails of pick up trucks.

LOL. my son bought a C4 a few years ago for $7K, put about $10K into it and sold it a few months ago for $5k.

The C5 Z06 is a track car and should be thought of as such. It doesn’t have any sound deadening at all.

High speed deep water crossings = breaking stupid things. This isn’t as much a CyberTurd problem as it is a driver problem. I’ve seen this happen to more than one vehicle and my front license plate is at the bottom of some Utah river or creek because of something similar.  I wouldn’t put much Elon or CT hate on this. …

Nah, that’s for the off-lease trucks that cost $90k new but are now a deal at $60k.

This went through the courts post-9/11 and they were ok with it.

Audio makes all the difference in this case.

Knowing New York city gun laws, the guy with the gun was a bad guy with a gun who was being stupider than average. Despite  Bruen, getting a license for a gun in NYC is still only slightly less difficult than Hawaii.
