Ahhh... I always wondered why Elon is obsessed about the CT being Stainless. Given he’s trying to be the next John Delorean, it suddenly makes sense.

I’m pretty sure I’ve got a set of unused tongs that I’d be willing to trade for this. Haven’t even clank-clanked them.

Ah, another day, another lead for a car company I’ve never seen an ad for. I guess Tesla is still shooting for the 2 or whatever. I’ll guess that by the end of the day, there will be another update on the mythical Cybertruck, which I know more about than the Rivian or Lightning.

I am DAMN tired of these dictator-craving Whites being described as “conservative”. Conservative is the last thing on these fascists’ minds.

That ‘perfectly good Lamborghini Gallardo’ was a scrapped shell of a 19 year old car that had been wrecked twice. I personally hate the ‘cummins swap everything’ mind set as much as I hate the ‘LS swap everything’, but this was a crazy project car.  Hell, THIS might be the most SEMA car here.

That would be a used Kia Stinger, right?

Uzi was a crank.

What planet are you from?

Proven by whom? 

Well first it was rocks and now they’re on to arrows. He’s just working his way through the history of projectile weapons while they figure out how to build it.

Liking old cars isn’t about speed. Yea a modern camry is faster than an old ferrari 308, infinitely more practical and reliable too, but I’m pretty sure we know which car is “cooler”.

Now playing

Or if it is driven, it’ll tootle around the grand estate at 15mph—really “exercise” the car.

I dunno, to me this is a bit like saying that The Weeknd makes better music than the Beatles because production quality has improved. Cars should be judged relative to the time they came out, give or take a model ahead and behind, but not against multi-generational improvements over decades. 

On a plane or boat, autopilot means set a course and it flies that course. Even if the course goes through another vehicle or mountain. The pilot is still responsible to avoid other aircraft and follow traffic control directions. Autopilot can reduce cockpit workload, giving the pilot more time to watch for other

1st Gear: I thought maybe the quick change-over with Autopilot might sway juries (sometimes it switched back to human control with only seconds of warning, not enough time to really compensate), but otherwise Tesla was on firm ground there. They warn people that you need to be aware and alert while using it, and while

First gear - separating the bullshit Tesla and Elon says, the conclusions have been correct. Every Tesla crash I can recall that made the news, and was blamed on autopilot, was clearly driver error. Lots of people ignorant of how their autonomous cars do/don’t work.

Gun racks in the back window made sense back when all pickups were single cabs and the gas tank was behind the bench seat, the 1960s, when it was the only available real estate to stash a long gun.  Today?  Not so much.

There will be more chargers.

Except they have no such ability nor desire to do so. Automakers don’t want to get into the charging station business (in their eyes that’s like building gas stations for cars, which traditionally is not an automaker’s role). The closest thing was Electrify America (funded by VW in lieu of fines for diesel gate) and

So the options for automakers are A) to stick with vendors like Electrify America that don’t work, or B) work with Tesla that might not work.
