When I lived in Minnesota I drove for months without seeing lines on the road. It’s called ‘winter’. Something Silicon Valley engineers have only heard tell of. But trust me, it’s real.

Salted road slush is the worst. Here is my car after a 45 min ride home. Note the ice stuck on the SIDE of the car!

I agree here is my brothers truck 5 hours into a 12 hour drive.The front HIDs being on didn’t stop them from icing over.

I see a few possibilities:

Finding a solution to the modern automated car wash is all well and good, but what about the days when I can drive 2.5 hours and consume two gallons of washer fluid, as shown above? That’s just for windshield and back window while following cars driving on a wet paved road. Would the onboard containment and delivery…

Will you send out drones to wash sensors and scrape ice? I’m in.

Or blind LIDAR sensors, send out spurious RADAR and ultrasound signals, or just about anything, really.

You could have your employees in shopping center parking lots and they could wash the cars while people are inside buying stuff.

I am going to have to make a start-up “Wayush”.  It is a gig based car washing service to clean the autonomous car service cars on a regular basis. I will charge the companies $10 per car and give the Wayush user $1.35, and make them pay for thier own supplies. The rest of the money will go to customer aquisition, my…

Um the same reason no one spray paints your windshield?

Nobody gives a shyt about keeping autonomous vehicles clean. The owners could care less, because they have no bond with the vehicle. Meanwhile, car enthusiasts will be using self service car washes to shine up their ride, because it’s a labor of love. Google will need to program the autonomous vehicle to go clean…

Isn’t a bunch of cocaine supposed to spill out of it when you do this?

I’m hoping they bring back riding mechanics and make him change the tires.

While asking for things that will never happen you should ask for V12s and refueling to come back as well.

This is a bizarre comparison that probably sounded much funnier in your head.

cross-country all the things...

That’s kinda how thing work.......

I sat in one of the V90s at the Chicago Int’l Auto Show. We haven’t had a Volvo in the family since the S70 my dad had when I was a little kid. One thing hasn’t changed: Volvo seats are about the most comfortable ones this side of a Rolls-Royce.

From my local CnC. Owner claims it’s one of two in this blue. So so lovely.

Just watched this last night and I’ve always loved Harry’s channel, along with Jay Leno’s. Channels like this need to exist so that we can get back to the simple era of pure unadulterated automotive experience. This is the reason I watch “Petrolicious” on YouTube religiously, just because I want to hear about these…
