I’m not a big FCA fan myself, but rented a Challenger recently. It was a surprisingly nice car to drive. Comfy, and even in V6 rental trim pretty peppy. It’s a hoss, of course, but for driving down the west coast over a few days, it was a nice grand tourer. I had very few complaints, even fuel mileage was decent…

I’m a nerd, so perhaps that’s why I like Elon so much. He has drive and he has grand ideas. All it takes is one or two of these to be implemented just right and catch on and it’s game changing. His track record for getting things right (at least right enough at this stage) is pretty good and I have faith in him to see…

My wife (girlfriend at the time) rode home from church in the hatch of my FC. Her Dad had an emergency and had to take the car her Mom drove, and her Mom called shotgun. :)

Gah, it’s things like this that so throughly offend me as an engineer that it makes me want to hack the ECU in a tractor and post the code up. What a bunch of steaming horse excrement.

I own a Focus and a Mustang! Fear me!

Wow, great sense of humor on ya.

I’m not aware of any drones we have doing that autonomously. They travel to the destination autonomously then a person at a desk somewhere presses the “fire” button. Perhaps I’ve missed some recent changes.

Who is Virgil?

I suggest a flamethrower. Lots and lots of flamethrower.

Okay, so not my car, but a great story nonetheless...

Many years ago I had a 1992 Pontiac Grand Am. It was a Quad4 with a 5 speed and had a grey interior. The girl I was dating had a 1993 Pontiac Grand Am, it was a V6 with an automatic and a grey interior.

Her car was dented on all 4 corners from her driving... skills... so I generally drove when we went out, and we…

So by legally driving in the left lane, he deserved to have his car destroyed and possibly die?

There is clearly something deeply wrong with you.

Hah, I get overly aggressive playing Monopoly. But yeah, agreed for sure. I downhill ski and used to speed skate and run competitively. I have done all of the above with injuries that I had no business walking on, let alone competing on.

I’m still young enough that I’m only starting to pay for those bad decisions. Ah…

PLEASE, please, please!

I keep trying to like Chris Evans and I... I just don’t. I’m not even sure why I dislike him so much.

Maybe this show will be great and I’ll come around. I’m just not convinced yet.

...I thought it was interesting. I read this site because stuff is interesting. So... thanks!

If I'm going to cover something with what is essentially active camouflage, I'm going to make it as near invisible as possible, vs dazzle-rific, but maybe that's just the Romulan in me.

Why would the baby be squished? The baby is in the car seat, unless people are strapping the baby between the car seat and the seat in front of it...

They work much better when they remain INTERNAL combustion engines. Yeehaw.

That’s exactly what it is. One of my best friends used to crew on that car. Was one heck of a BOOM that’s for sure.
