I would not be surprised in the slightest if Ferrari knew exactly where every single LaFerrari was at any time. I’m betting they have DAQ on every car telling them where it is and what it’s doing.

LOL exactly, he actually got plenty of understeer on entry and mid corner during the drive.

The droopy Mercedes styling (on the back, at least) is due to CFD optmization techniques. Basically, Droopy McJellybean is a computer.

I see what’s happened here. All the combustion energy has gone into producing noise instead of horsepower.

All my car buddies and I literally call this the Chrysler FakeBentley.

Absolutely. A solid piece with the flexibility required for interferences.

The asking price is actually more than $50,000,000. It was a $115,000,000 million project and and they only made 2 of them. They are just a demonstration vehicle for a government funded, mandated project.

Unfortunately, the Freightliner will NOT go into production since it is a government funded (read: mandated with barely half the budget to complete) exhibition vehicle.

The rear wheel covers are mounted to the frame, they were removed for the profile view photograph. Also, industrial brushes are not an aerodynamically effective device. They MAKE drag. Ask me how I know.

Current Cascadia EVO gets 8-9 on rolling hills. This thing has predictive technologies and it was run on a regular highway in Texas where there were certainly rolling hills. On the flat circle track, the Supertruck got more than 14mpg.

They will literally sell NONE of them since it was a government funded exhibition program. Actually, they only built 2 with only the concept you see above having the full package of integrated systems.

A 5.7L V8 can fit where a 2.4L I4 used to be, but that doesn't mean it will go in nice and easy.

Why is it that the craziest builds these days all seem to be drift cars?

The range lost due to propeller drag will ALWAYS be more than the range gained by power generation. No matter how you hack it, it will be a range decrease.

Agreed. The driving philosophy of minivan owners is something akin to: "Pres Buttan!?"

This is not that complicated at all. It's just a compact multilink with an offset lower control arm. All of the hub control geometry is handled by the upper links and lower lower link (in black). The machined aluminum offset lower control arm serves the single purpose of attaching a spring/damper to the system without…

I've been reading the comments and most people who don't wrench basically boil it down to 2 different reasons.

You're right, fast is fast.

However, it was outsold in November by both the Nissan GT-R and The BMW i8.

Just to get a feel for how rare they are.

I lol'd at that, too. Even though the Peterbilt is actually has an 80,000 lb. GVWR.
