They haven’t “fixed” it because it’s intentional to increase fuel economy at “cruising RPMs.”

Yeah, that will surely come out even in the wallet department in the long run...
“Awful movie?” GTFO.
Yeah, that’s why I put “brake boosting” in quotes, lol. Wasn’t sure what the proper term was for a non-boosted car. Thanks for the info!
Yeah, I wasn’t sure if the Tesla allowed you to do that, but that’s definitely what it looks like.
It looks like he’s just “brake boosting.” AKA, he’s holding the brakes while pressing the accelerator to “pre-load” the drivetrain, which is what is causing the vehicle to squat.
Hahaha! Don’t get me started...
So much this. All I see every day on the FR-S/BRZ forum is: “Want to lower my car. Can anyone recommend a good set of coilovers? Don’t want to spend more than $650.”
Just as a more positive counterpoint to this article: Often times you can get a free upgrade if you just ask! Several times when renting a car, I’ve simply walked in and said, “I’m a car guy. Do you HAPPEN to have anything more interesting for me?” More than once I’ve been upgraded. Once I got upgraded from a tiny…
Who refers to their own car as “the vehicle?”

That doesn’t even make any sense. It sounds like you were driving properly. In that situation you’re SUPPOSED to use both lanes up to the merge point. What was the ticket FOR exactly?!
I don’t think a SINGLE person in that line was upset at the cop. Trust me. I would GLADLY sit still for 10 minutes if it meant the assholes who do this would get pulled over and ticketed.
People who do this not only fuck over everyone else in the line, but often are the cause of congestion on the main road, when they…
Yes, boggled. The zipper merge isn’t a difficult concept.
Then again, using your turn signal isn’t a difficult concept. Maybe I should lower my expectations. This is America, after all...
Don’t compare this to a zipper merge. This is NOT a zipper merge. At all.
It boggles my mind when people try to compare this kind of maneuver to the “zipper merge.” They aren’t at ALL the same thing! WTF.
This looks like something from TrackMania.
I’m okay with this.
You have, quite literally, no idea what you’re talking about.
