You sound like a person who should pretty much be ignored by everyone on any subject.

No first hand information. No researched information. All confirmation bias. No doubt based on forum reports by whiny bitches who’ll never admit on a forum that they fucked up their own cars, and can’t take responsibility for it.

So, outside of the UK, this entire narrative is meaningless? Nothing to see here?

Maybe not more luxurious, but fun, fast and has 4 doors and AWD. MSRP is only slightly higher than the $35K requirement.

So now Musk has joined with the Republican rank and file in opposing a free press. Nice.

So much aggravation could be saved if people just followed the simple rule:

I think it’s a LOT more likely that the government will be picking the voters instead of the other way around, and I think they’ll be rethinking their policies on use of genocide against their own surplus population to maintain order.

And so a handful of humans who can out think neural networks of the future, will still have a job. And you are convinced that you will be one of them.

Is this one of those things where if your cable company doesn’t carry it, you can’t sign into the Roku app?

For about 4 months a year, western Washington. It’s between 75 and 85, low humidity, with not a drop of rain in sight. And the days are really long during the summer thanks to the latitude. Add a couple more months for sunny with gorgeous fluffy clouds above you in the afternoon with a sweater or hoodie. You have to…

I’d find it creepy seeing these things. It’ll always remind me of that time we ignored Elon Musk and Stephen Hawking, and the autonomous cars became self aware, killed all the humans, and took over their society.

I think they reduce use of buses. Because buses inherently suck, especially when you have to stand. But I used to take Lyft to the Metro Expo station when I lived in LA. And take the Expo the rest of the way.

I’ve also done that for the Link Rail system in Seattle.

When I get an electric car, I’m going to have it make Jetson-mobile noises.

It’s hard not to see how 2 or 4 wheel hub motors won’t become the standard eventually. Eliminating mechanical linkages would save a lot in manufacturing. With 4 wheel motors, you can turn two on the passenger side of the car in one direction, while turning the other side the other way, making parallel parking in tight…

Golden Age of Hot Hatches. They’ve never had better handling, nor have they been as fast, as they are now.

Also, maybe the “New Golden Age of Old Muscle Cars.”

When you have a Costco in your area, that is always where the cheapest gas will be found. Everything else is measured in cents more per gallon than Costco.

Back in West LA, we never went to Costco for gas. The line was ridiculous. Where we live now in rural-ish Washington, most times there’s no wait. Costco is six…

When made some horrible mistakes when we bought our house. But one mistake we insisted on avoiding, was moving to a place with a homeowner’s association. The people that run those are all little fascist dictators on a power trip of ultimate conformity.

I have to go with the 928. As an all around car, it’s smooth, fast, handles great, grabs attention and it will feel familiarly modern despite being 30+ years old. You need a garage for it, because new it only put out 288 horsepower, and c’mon...you know you can make it do better than that.

Hope they make or made a stop in western Washington. And avoid(ed) Seattle. That’s really not a place to drive.

Maybe the volatility of the current political climate pushes it out of the “enough sales to justify” column if Ford planned to make them in Mexico.
