To prevent gullible Jalops from buying one and bankrupting themselves.

Because the Mon Cal cruiser was massive and expensive. And it simply disabled Snoke’s dreadnought for a time. Missiles are effective because they go fast, but consider the speed of the cruiser to what it might have done at sublight... it actually only did, what, two or three times its possible sublight damage, plus…

Respectfully disagree as A-Wings are the most annoying enemies in the game TIE Fighter.

I’m glad that Porsche did the right thing and I hope they continue to do the right thing by releasing manual versions. But to be fair this whole “listen to your customers thing” is that it’s not always the right thing to do. Jalops in particular about screaming about the car they want, but in the end they don’t…

Given that California produces a shit-ton more in federal revenue than it receives in federal expenditures, and that it’s largest-in-the-US population is represented by the same number of senators as, say, Wyoming or Rhode Island, I’d say California would be fine and the rest of the US might revisit such a separation…

I doubt this proposal will go anywhere. It’s too far reaching too soon, even for California. Implementing a total ban on ICE registrations before implementing a total ban on simply buying new ICE cars is backwards. Also, there are far too many people in California who a) depend on their old/cheap cars to survive b)…

Sergio believes all cars will be SUVs.

Maybe he was just wanted to pine for attention?

“crossovers so that Average Joe Plumber American will buy their cars thereby subsidizing their enthusiast offerings....”

“If it had a manual I would by a used one in 5 years”

Are the stolen Teslas now called Edisons?

Almost no one needs much more than a base Corolla. Need is basically beside the point.

I drive my 87 f250 farm truck couple days a week and I kind of agree. The suspension is solid and you feel every ripple, but holy shit does it go through anything. I like driving it because of how utilitarian it is, but I own a few year old beige car and an 02 Silverado extended cab, so I know what it’s like to have…

Thus proving there was no EV market to begin with. If the market can’t withstand the retail price of the product without the tax payers incentivizing the sale by offering the tax credit which technically only affects those who actually owe more than the $7500 in taxes to begin with and therefore should not require…

I wonder what his plans are for 2019 and later as Tesla will then have competition with full-electric vehicles, and those will come from manufacturers that know how to set up a production, and will probably make the current Teslas outdated. He’s losing money right now, and the other manufacturers could easily afford…

Such a bold conclusion drawn on thin plans

I’ve been watching both Discovery and The Orville, and think that both series are two sides of the same coin. Both are shades of Trek, but at extreme opposite ends. Discovery in it’s story-telling is very much akin to the darkest episodes of DS9, almost a series in the veign of “In a Pale Moonlight” where as Orville…

I know this is a popular idea but honestly I’ve been impressed so far with how well the writers did their research. So many little details in each episode are call backs to relatively obscure but time-appropriate lore, from the names of scientific prizes to battles between the Federation and the Klingons. Even the…
