Isn’t that price slightly above the requirement for LeMons? It seems like it would make a perfect LeMons project.

Very, very few collisions fall into the “totally random and unexpected” category. Most are in the “both parties weren’t paying attention” or “one wasn’t paying attention and the other held their ‘right of way’” category.

It’s not a test for the autonomous cars. It’s a human test to show how HUMANS would make the choice. It’s designed to make us look bad compared to the machines. Which we will.

I wouldn’t say that’s unfair at all. Or true. In the case of Christina, I’m pretty sure she’s taller than her male teamate. And he could stand to lose a few pounds :)

Sabine Schmitz is 5'8, which isn’t short either.

However, there are a lot of smaller women. More racing teams should take advantage of their size and…

Good thing this isn’t happening during a full moon. Yet.

Looked it up. No restrictions on vertical “minimum pricing restrictions”. Especially for company owned stores. Which I thought they all were.

In other parts of the world, Lexuses are just Toyota models with an upscale option package. The brand literally doesn’t exist outside North America.

Instead of getting rid of Buick, GM doubled down and created a permanent fracture in their company that keeps them permanently where they are. Chevy and Buick have no room…

And he should know.

Anyone around coke addicts in the 80s knew someone a lot like Trump. They were the assholes you stopped inviting to parties because they made everyone uncomfortable and bullied anyone smaller than themselves.

We also knew someone like Dean. Super gregarious, fun to be around, would often share,…

That’s what I hear in my head whenever Donald Trump talks.

I’m wondering if this might make Tesla vulnerable to “anti-price-fixing” laws. They call it “Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price” for a reason.

I’ve given up on GM. Their interdepartmental territorial battles for protected turf will always leave all non-Cadillacs in a position where they can never compete with Cadillac.

It has doomed Chevy cars other than the Corvette and Camaro, from aspiring to something other than patent cheapness. Second rate styling,…

I’d love to see how, once people live up there, US courts will assert their jurisdiction. 

Also, the the batteries are primarily made with graphene, their own carbon content is significant.

I’ll buy an electric car:
1. When my current car is worn out
2. If it is the same price as an equivalent IC car
3. If it has the same power as an equivalent IC car
4. If it has the same range as an equivalent IC car
5. If it is as easy to find a place to charge up as an equivalent IC car
6. If it is as fast to charge as…

Silly question, not because the question isn’t valid, but I can’t possibly know the answer.

To answer I’d have to know the following:
1. How the carbon was sourced.
2. How far it was transported.
3. The method of transportation
4. The type of fuel and the make and model of the engine of the vehicle that transported it.
5.…

Battery storage is the bottleneck for ALL zero carbon technology. Whether it’s fixed storage or portability.

It’s unfortunate that we’re somewhat out of sync on the generation/storage evolutions in technology. But we’re pretty close to the “post-lithium” era in electrical storage. Some I see listed in other comments.…

I really appreciate the immense variety of wind turbine design cropping up. This is really cool.

Then you don’t read the Jeep Wrangler forums.

Subarus have average or above average reliability. That means there are some cars that are more reliable than Subarus. Jeeps all have below average reliability. There are few cars on the market that are less reliable. But almost anything other than a Jeep is more reliable.
