This seems so easy to prevent though. Have the EPA randomly buy a couple cars every year, and do testing at the tailpipe. Don’t plug anything into the car and drive it around a loop/course. If it fails by a wide enough margin (lets be real, the ideal lab tests aren’t going to be duplicated in the real world), it gets…

Damn, some of those cars just crumbled. Scary shit. That Volvo is a tank! I knew they were strong cars but damn.

Fallout 3, while a great RPG, has no vehicles. Kind of hard to envision a Mad Max simulator without vehicles.

Yeah, it’s great until they realize they are missing a potential source of income and start pairing up these readers with cameras and using them for parking enforcement, registration violations, surveillance if a crime has happened, etc, etc. No thanks.

It probably got every expired tag and any other possible revenue positive violation acted on though.

Easy!

Any automated moderation will be lacking, it’s a system resorted to from compromise and necessity.

Actually, the original reason why “potato” stuck as a slang insult for computers was the implication that they had the electrical power of a potato (which produces less than a volt of electrical potential as I recall?)

I find it ironic that this is the title image for this article. Maybe I’m alone in this, but I actually like Chasing Classic Cars, precisely because there is no fake drama, fake deadlines, or bullshit haggling over a fake deal. It may not have the flash or the excitement of something like Top Gear or the Roadkill…

I’ll keep using Fiat, Seat and Saab. Cheers!

6000 SUX, I mean.

I feel like this list was created to not offend. I agree that these mods are worthless, but given that most of them are so inexpensive they’re not particularly noteworthy and they’re not detrimental to performance.

Who was the fucking idiot in charge of this salvage effort? You don’t lift an airplane with a lot of water inside of it with one strap looped around the wing root.

+1000. Edd China is the man! Seriously, he has deep technical knowledge combined with amazing comic facial expressions as Mike Brewer tosses some heap into a fast corner. I would check out the new TG in a heartbeat.

...and better aero during the day when you do most of your driving. Also, lower hood line, increasing visibility. Also looks fucking awesome.

Just wait til they figure out they can sell ads here.

I would have start-and-parked the car, but as a final F-U to the owner who is negating the contract, I would have driven it the required five laps and then crashed it into a wall on purpose.
