If the driver gets into a collision it’d be a Tyrannosaurus wreck.

Ahh yes Alex Cranz, the person who is suppose to report on tech, and is scared of anything that is new in tech.

That is perfectly fine with me. I don’t need to know if I am talking to a human. I just need to effectively communicate.

I think what I like most about Teslas is that they make it seem like they really aren’t even trying. They didn’t set out to create an SUV that would beat some hemi-powered monstrosity, they just created an electric vehicle that happens to blow everything else away (with the help of a few software updates).

Reason number 678,987,456,892,369,923 why I can’t wait for the death of car dealerships.

Because skirting stupid regulations is something I”ve made a personal mission of in my 20+ years working for the government...

Boring.

Blow off work and take a nice drive in your Porsche 914! You have my permission. Unless you work here at Jalopnik, in which case, get your ass back to the blog mine.

To answer your questions:

He hit X when he should have been hitting Y.

I will never understand why people like the color of polished-turd.

I mean, yeah, everyone has their own tastes. Some folks don’t like black cars. Some don’t like hot-pink.

I just never understood how so many people can like brown.

Look, if the Chinese investors can bankroll FCA so they can keep making cars and potentially better their quality why should I care?

Oil - even the cheapest oil that is API certified today is better than the stuff from 10-15 years ago. Actually this applies to most fluids.. Brake, PS, Washer, etc...

Bulbs - you don’t need those super expensive Long Life or hyper white tail light bulbs.
