Pretty sure Kate Upton did a work-around for even that requirement in the ‘Three Stooges’ movie a while back.... :D

I’m not one who has ventured into the realm of Twitch at all, so my understanding of how that platform works is zilch (I’m gathering though it’s basically a live-stream variation of YouTubes typical pre-recorded fare). Regardless I’ve followed at a distance the demonetization on YT and to me the solution here is a…

If you’re looking for fun reading, here’s Teslarati’s opinion - the comments section are the usual Tesla-stan nonsense.

I might be misunderstanding what the device in the story does, but what I think it is doing is accessing the infotainment’s ‘cache’, sort of like your browser history/website cookies it collects when you visit a site so that it “remembers” how you accessed it before for a similar experience. So while they may not be…

You’re just showing the “before” picture - we’re still waiting on GM to make it and screw it up like they normally do with concepts to reality.

This is assuming it actually sees the light of day in production form looking anything like this, assuming it hits production at all in this decade if ever.

no car designer should EVER aspire to mimic the bullshit that is the interior of the Tesla Model 3/Y

I’m glad Honda is finally cleaning up it’s awful HVAC/InfoTainment set up, but please please please can we stop/ban gear selection that is not a lever that is a) recognizable and b) stays in the position of the gear selected. These are not big asks, are things that were literally done for decades until recently for…

And yet here you are, so either you’re a liar or.... nope, just a liar.

...unless you know a good hacker?  It amazes me to this day how Tesla has not had a significant hack on either the company or more relevant, their cars.  And before someone comments about how Tesla would know and disable the hack/car for it, you know there is a work around.  Frankly hackers NEED to be hacking all…

The people who invented and then applied electronic parking-brakes to manual transmission cars should be buried alive with fire ants.  It was unnecessary tech to begin with, to put in in a car with manual was just being mean for no reason.

Psht... salt has nothing on that brine shit they spray on roads now - it just eats through cars, and should be banned for that reason alone, but is the now go-to because it’s cheaper to use and cuts down on having to add sand.  That said when it’s below freezing road surfaces should not be “wet”.  If I had my way it…

I feel I was lucky with my Cavalier ownership experiences (a 93 VL coupe so bare-bones it didn’t have a passenger door mirror! and a 2001 Z24 coupe).  Both versions I owned gave me next to zero mechanical issues.  The 93 I bought with 50,000kms and sold it somewhere around 130,000kms.  The 01 Z24 I bought with…

Which only goes to show that this lawsuit against Rivian and Lucid is without merit.  If the relationship between dealers and OEMs is as you say, then there is zero problem with Rivian, Lucid, or Peugeot or Renault setting up stores to sell their cars direct to anyone who walks through the door/logs into their…

I don’t think it is a law where I live, but I’m happy as a consumer that at least 1 day a week lots are closed so I can browse around without having to worry about being hassled by a sales person.  

Literally any mechanic can do post-sales service and support - doesn’t even have to be that brand shop.  If it’s under warranty it has to covered by the manufacturer - it might be a bigger pain in the ass for off-brand shops to do but it isn’t impossible.  And even if you stay in-brand, nothing says it has to be the…

So what if they are? First of all, none of those companies, Tesla included, can or will likely ever produce product to a scale sustainable to a traditional dealership sales model. Established manufacturers are able to do so because of sheer volume being produced and keeping customization to a minimum (or not at all…

Elon is worth $178B because there are idiots ramping up his stock price on Wallstreet, just like they are Uber and DoorDash, the latter two of which are hemorrhaging millions of dollars/month and not anywhere close to making a profit if ever. It’d hedge investing that has Tesla’s value where it is now, not from how…

And that’s not even including used car sales, which include CPO off-lease sales and other generic used dealerships like CARMAX.  If you’re not picky about some items getting a 2 year old Highlander vs a new one can be a good deal anyway.

And neither Apple Stores nor Best Buy are going to haggle with you over the price of that iPhone. It’s $1500 or suck it loser!
