Also, let’s face it. There really are only two commercial aircraft manufacturers these days, Boeing and Airbus. When something goes wrong with a commercial plane it’s almost certainly going to be a Boeing or an Airbus. That may make it look like these two manufacturers are producing a subpar product, but there’s…

Man, that Prius looks soooo good in red!

Am I the only one creeped out by what looks like some huge, diseased thing.

Years ago I was visiting Arizona, and hanging out with some folks I didn’t really know very well when a guy in the group mentioned that quartz had good harmonic properties. I replied “yeah, that’s why they use quartz crystals in watches. When you apply an electric current to them they vibrate at a very constant…

Er... that’s not drifting. That’s losing the back-end when you realize you made a very bad decision and try to save yourself by flooring it.

I’m not a high horsepower guy, so Vipers never appealed to me for that reason, but from a pure aesthetic perspective I love the later, coupes, especially in blue with a white racing stripe.

The dash looks done well enough in the pictures.

Yeah, I knew a guy who was an apartment dweller and he owned an Ionioq 5. He loved the thing, and only used public chargers, but for my money if you can’t charge at home, an EV just doesn’t make a whole lot of sense.

Probably the most sensible answer for someone who wants a reliable car that’s fun to drive and you won’t be embarrassed to drive your work colleagues in. 

The new Prius gets about 60 MPG. Over 250,000 miles, assuming $4 a gallon, you’re saving $16,664.00 over a car that averages 30 MPG.

What would have been funny would be to see what percentage of the Cybertruck’s battery was depleted after the run. I’m guessing it’s an embarrassingly large amount.

What Musk says: “I need another 12% stake in Tesla to grow its artificial intelligence business.”

Interestingly, Henry Ford is probably the last guy I would associate with a quote like that. When you think about the history of various car manufacturers, a lot of them were born of or strongly associated with early racing programs (Maserati, Ferrari, Lotus, Jaguar) but Ford has always been about mass production and…

Not that Tesla is the only one guilty of this sort of nonsense. I remember for years numerous auto manufacturers with quickish cars would brag about how their car was “faster than a Porsche.” Of course, they were referring to the base model, 201 Hp Boxster that managed a 0 - 60 time of just under 7 seconds, and not…

Always loved the Bertone/Fiat X1/9. When I was a kid it was my attainable dream car:

Wrong gearbox. ND.

Hy helicopter’s in the shop, too, though!

Can I pay additional to cover damage to my vehicle while I’m committing a crime? Like flood insurance?

Yup. No such thing as a fender bender anymore when there’s $2500 worth of sensors built into the fender.
