Going to check the wife’s CX-5 tonight. I could have sworn that was where the dashboard dimming dial was located. But now I’m very curious.

Yes how could contracting pupil improve night vision?

Well in the US tinting the windshield is illegal, I think in every state.  

Oh wow, I don’t understand all the vitriol.
These are dullards compared to today’s standards, but back in the day, there were tons of 300ms and Concordes/Intrepids rolling around. People seemed to like them. And they were more reliable than the big K cars they replaced.
We had a ‘99 LHS that was still chugging along…

This is a cool car from a time when packing made sense and Chrysler was innovating. But it’s way, way too expensive.

Well, if you’re not a car guy and want something big and comfy that you could get yourself around with for the next 5-7 years pretty trouble free, it’s not a bad deal. I’d try getting that price down to $6500 though. NP, but specifically for the world’s accountants, undertakers and Scranton-based paper salesmen. 

Because the editors are on Autopilot. Tesla’s press release doesn’t say that - it says its the fastest Model 3 ever.

Seems like they could have just knocked on the door and asked him about the car. But, that’s no fun when you can have a freeway chase scene.

pretty much!

Anyone worried about that police instruction?

And a dozen cops for a single stolen car ? 

This could have been sorted out without the police. This was a possible lethal use of police resources.

Under no circumstances would I trust a car to drive for me, but I especially don’t see the value in a feature that asks you still focus on the road with your hands on the wheel. Just drive it normally if you have to do all that.

So how much will Elon tell the public company he runs to pay the private company he owns for advertising space? If he doesn’t get his compensation package, maybe $55 billion.

Tesla is fucked because once a brand is tarnished it’s almost impossible to restore the luster.

There’s been some really lousy reporting on that, and this line in the story (and the linked article from which it came) joins that dubious body of work. The point in saying that the federal government will be responsible for the majority of the costs is that a) part of the point of having a federal government is to…

Plenty of people, stop being a dick and look outside once in a while.

Did you read the article?  He used the sign after he was unable to get any buyers from his online ads.

Why wouldn’t you?  Takes like a minute to make (or $1 to buy and fill out) and would increase your chances of selling.  Last vehicle I sold, I used both online ads and a physical for sale sign.

I’ve seen cars lodged in the second story of a house from a flat street.  This would be nothing.  But then, a fire truck in my town just smashed into a house on a regular street, so not more danger than a normal house.
