Focusing on on particular project does not mean dropping contractual obligations.

A lot of modern internal-combustion cars are pretty quiet on the inside too. I got to ride in a rental 2016 F-150 the other day, and it was almost totally silent at idle, although the tachometer assured me the engine was running. There was a vague rumble under acceleration, but otherwise the cabin wasn’t really any

Unless battery technology advances by about 300-500% in the near future in terms of density, you’re not gonna see anything notably smaller and compact than a Tesla

One important aspect of electric propulsion seriously lacking in the fun and excitement area is the lack of powerful internal combustion engine noises

Yeah - no way something like the Bolt could have 240 mile range.

REAL ALPHA MALES DRIVES BIG, COMMANDING CARS

First: PRAISE THE AUTO GODS. Jalops rejoice, our time has come. We shall purchase our Miatas and Fiatas and save us all. We aren’t the heroes you want, we are the heroes you need.

1st Gear: Now if we can convince singletons to buy small sports cars instead of crossovers with space that 99 percent of the time will never use. If they need more room, just Google the nearest U-Haul.

Sometimes things aren’t what they appear to be.

ok good talk

Miss my Jetta :(

The reaction is like someone screaming FIRE in a theater or BOMB in an airport.

Everyone else has poured $30,000 in parts and tools to keep theirs running.

Nascar just got fuel injection for cryin’ out loud. Slow down there, sparky.

A great business man once said — and I’m paraphrasing it a bit — “real Gs move in silence like lasagna.”

If this is successful I wonder how it’ll translate to an increase in space junk, or is the orbit low enough that most of it comes back down relatively quickly and burns up on reentry?

Thank you. Forgot to mention. He is OK.

Now playing

Happened in V8 Supercars the other week when they were at Albert Park for the F1 weekend. Brakes failed behind a pack of cars so he shot down the inside, unfortunately the lead car in the group got nailed as he went through the apex. Unfortunate but he took out one car instead of possibly a pack.

The black car did a great job avoiding the red car. That could have been much worse.
