The people who think Trump should run the economy also think the Earth was created 6000 years ago, and most living things were then drowned in a global flood and all life today comes from one pair of each different “kind” of animal that lived together for 40 days on a big boat, presumably eating hay or something. I…

I suspect that in a couple of years a CyberTruck is going to have the same vibe as would the unholy offspring of Hummer H2 and a Pontiac Aztek (before “Breaking Bad” made the Aztek ironically cool). You’re gonna think the owner is kind of a douche, but you’re also going to feel kind’a sad for him at the same time.

Couple of years ago I went to L.A. to visit my daughter. While driving to her campus I chanced upon a Ferrari F355 that had just been wrecked at an intersection. It gave me teh sad. They’re not making new ones of these, so every lost one is one less in the world.

The DeLorean’s Renault sourced motor was never renowned for its power, so I’m all onboard for a DeLorean electric conversion.

The Nike “swoosh” sticker alone has me swiping left.

Another concern Crook has about Teslas, and EVs broadly, comes from an essential lesson he was taught in the police academy: “In a firefight, hide behind the engine block.” In a Tesla, there is no engine block, leaving officers without their preferred cover, he said.

LOL, I saw Doug’s video when it came out. It all seemed kind’a cool until I got to the part about no A/C. I mean... that’s a deal breaker. Sorry. I can do without a lot of things, but not A/C.

Any inexpensive, old exotic vehicle. I learned this the hard way buying a cheap Lotus Esprit abck in the day. Truth is, there’s no such thing as a cheap old exotic. As the saying goes: you shouldn’t buy an old Ferrari unless you can afford to buy a new Ferrari.

Oh, please... are you really hoping to convince me that Trump knows what the word “autonomous” means?

I’ll second the Acura TSX. I’ve got a 2011 Tech Package 6-Speed manual. Something of a unicorn. It may be an older car but it’ll last forever (I have 185K on mine and it drives like new). I have added a few aftermarket upgrades, such as a Compustar remote start and a Grom Android Auto unit that interfaces with the…

How many jobs do you think will be lost in Japan and the U.S. if we fall too far behind China in the inevitable transition to EV? How many jobs will be lost if China owns the Electric Vehicle market? Because that’s what about to happen. And if you think that the West can just ignore EV’s and keep doing ICE for the fore…

Dude, please also post a picture of wormtongue so I can see compare side by side with that picture of Elon Musk you posted and see if you’re right.

If I had $1 for every “grass roots” Trump supporter who wasn’t actually who he claimed to be, I’d be a rich man. Of course, this wouldn’t be the first time the GOP staged a fake gathering:

I was thinking “blood from a turnip” as well, but in bankruptcy proceedings arrangements are made to prioritize some creditors before others with the money that’s left lying around before the final “out of business” sign is hung. This could potentially just be a fight over that. Maybe Fisker is trying to direct what…

I don’t necessarily have a problem with unmarked police vehicles. I do have a problem with black, unmarked police vehicles speeding on public roads, at night, with no illumination whatsoever... no flashing lights, no siren, no headlamps even. That’s a tragedy waiting to happen.

Then again, he’s in favor of front license plates, so maybe we should disregard everything he says.

Nonsense. Of course they’re real and ready to go into widespread service. Why, here’s a picture of one already ferrying famous actor Arnold Schwarzenegger to a glamorous event:

Honestly I’d like to see every Cracker Barrell restaurant install a dozen chargers. That would go a long way to relieving range anxiety for people who road trip. I mean, on a 500 mile road trip, you’re going to be stopping for lunch sometime. Unless, of course, you’re the kid whose dad kept old strawberry jam jars in…

It’s not the pronoun... it’s the lack of consistency. I will grudgingly accept gender neutral conventions if a writer insists on it. I’ve written plenty of documentation where I refer to hypothetical users as “she” instead of “he.” Back in my day that’s the stuff that got people all riled up as being “PC.” Today its…

What makes it a minivan is that I wouldn’t be caught dead driving it.
