gas turbine, fixed that for ya. been some sorta gas turbine in every batmobile since Adam West. every iteration, every movie, every cartoon series. Now we get a fat fendered Camaro with no gas turbine in sight. And something the average Batman villian-with-a-gimmick can disable by snagging a sparkplug wire or two. bah

the father of the Tesla Roadster’s technology, AC Propulsion, was hoping to sell a version of this, one with more batteries the other with a fuel engined alternator. Starting of such “hybrid” all handled by the vehicle’s computer. the thing even had active steering to keep the thing stable at speeds which they were

with a gravity assist starting at the top of a decent mountain, say Pikes Peak, it can get better than 300 with no gasoline at all! :)

3K is just about OTD for 600-650 class bikes brand new. and no charging infrastructure needed

yet to get that range you spend as much as a good Miata. Or well in to Harley Bagger money. twice what the new FJR1300 (I had an 07) costs- and this bike is aimed performance wise at the 600-650 crowd which is much cheaper than that. And I took that across 3 states at least 3 times a year, commuted daily unless the

when you point a finger, 4 more are pointing back at you. All your rant does is tell me what YOU would do if you had one. Meanwhile the two Ive seen around here, one belongs to a late 30's hispanic roofing contractor who’s a big 49ers fan, and the other is bone stock and belongs to a restaurant owner in downtown SF

one step closer on that backpacking hike to the moon. Studies and such are ways to shift money to allies for political reasons. at best it gets a list of what properties are going to be in the way, so allies can grab them up for pennies, then sell them to greedy people who think they can buy them and get government to

now mounting them on the door sill at the roofline, on any car where the driver is low to the ground, is pure genius.

check real close to see who buys them, and cross check it with their virtue signalling social media postings. bet you’ll see lots of “I care about the environment!” and “we need to get rid of gas cars!” while its really about “making less traffic so its easier to tow my expensive offshore playtoy when I don’t leave it

no gas turbine? the cylinder count isn’t as impressive but the fuel economy numbers are (as in gallons per mile!)

untrue and fake news. its riders who lack the brains to modulate their right wrist. When you’re between some arseclown on their cellphone and the concrete divider, and you’re already doing 65, “too much power” is what lets you get the fuck out of the way when they change lanes into your right boot. you don’t have time

just like kissing Iran’s arse now, or the Allies allowing the Russians to get away with pogroms that would have impressed the Nazis in WWII to keep them loyal, sometimes shit happens to win the game. Plus, when we decide we won’t use our own resources, and castrate our nuclear power research out of fear, sacrificing a

you misspelled “didn’t have a chance against Hillary’s paid-off superdelegates”. trump knew he had a Bernie’s chance to get the nomination. Whereas the GOP not having a club of “super delegates” that can blatantly override the will of the people, we got what we got.

based on what historical precedent? the constant criticism and blame Clinton received for bombing in Bosnia? or involvement in Somalia? The everpresent “reminders” of dozens of drone strikes without Congressional oversight under the last Administration? Oh that’s right. the Democrats did NOT complain or unleash the

okay, Im really confused. How many times does the Supreme Leadership, in a military and civil organization where the Supreme Leadership has absolute control, have to openly declare war, and begin hostilities, before any modern writer decides that America or the target of said declaration of war is actually allowed to

this right here. all the “unanswered questions” that the movie left blatantly open were well addressed by the book. Submarine parts in the right place? and a part taken from the Red October that could be found and proven that it was correct, so the Soviets had no reason to suspect the sub was still around? instead we

like the NFL?

did you forget the multiple Silicon Valley trips where the last Prez gave one speech then spent a day or two doing $2 and $5k a plate dinner fundraisers for prominent state Democrats? Is that not campaigning? or are you only concerned when its not a D doing that and more?

I for one would be totally okay with that

its not the “armed patriots” who demonsrated the inability to accept results about 3 years ago. Wasnt before that either. Try to follow actual news, not your fantasies of persecution.
