I used to drive hybrid buses (like the big 40-footers as well as the 60-foot articulated ones), and the torque they had down low compared to the diesel ones made them SO much more enjoyable to drive, as did the one-pedal driving. Being able to just scoot into an open gap in traffic from a stop was fantastic, and being…

Really?

Good.

Body of article: “Airliners are designed to survive lightning strikes just fine, you uneducated idiot.”

There wasn’t “no vacancy anywhere.” That would be ridiculous. There was just no vacancy at whatever random hotels United has agreements with.

Not be a lazy Karen, and call around yourself to find your own hotel with a room available?

Shameless “self” promotion, but the girlfriend is currently selling her “Locost” replica in order to help fund her Supra purchase in the spring before autocross season starts. So if anyone in or around the Chicagoland area is interested in a Miata-powered Lotus 7 clone, feel free to slide into her DMs, lol. (Yes, we…

Cars aren’t dick-measuring sticks in Europe the way they are in the United States. If they’re doing it on European vehicles, it’s almost certainly because it’s better; not because it’s fancier.

Why is it a ”far cry” from that? It looks like it manages to do the same thing actually. Just because they didn’t show it jumping doesn’t mean it isn’t capable of that, and arguably that is the least useful part of the Bose demo, and just a fun trick. Given how aggressively the ET9's suspension can move, I’d be…

I hate when people say stuff like, “What is MTA doing about this?” What do you want them to do about it? Post signs everywhere stating sex on top of trains is prohibited? Install cameras on the roofs of trains so operators always have a live view of their trains on top of everything else? Put electrified, barbed wire…

I realize some people are more... coherent... in emergency situations than others, but anyone who thinks just abandoning the truck to get struck by a freight train instead of reversing and snapping off the crossing gate (and maybe crumpling the front of the vehicle behind them) is the best course of action, probably…

The Supra dude has absolutely no idea what he's talking about. He's embarrassingly uninformed for being a "car guy."

Oof...

Counterpoint: the older one looks better. It has curvier styling that flows better.

Porsche has done the same thing every automaker does during a refresh. “Let’s tighen up those curves! Add some creases! Make it look SHARPER!”

NO. The whole point of the original design was to be curvy and elegant, and it worked, all…

Those people should just buy a 240 then, lol.

I’ve heard nothing but great things about the B58 engine. You do realize the 2000s was two decades ago right? Subaru also hasn’t had head gasket issues in two decades, but you still find people on the internet going on-and-on about that long-resolved problem.

What mechanicals have had issues on this vehicle, out of curiosity?

It isn't that hard to justify at all if you actually drive the two. Nissan can obviously charge a lot less given it's running on essentially the same platform it was running on back in 1876.

I don't give two shits about the cruise industry. I'm just an engineer who wants to see data presented properly. I don't know why you think I'm going "really far" when all I'm saying is that I want to see a comparison that makes more sense. If anything I think it would be more interesting.

Then compare it to the emissions of a flight AND everything else involved in a one-week stay and experience at Disney. That includes your share of the emissions associated with your hotel stay, your transportation around Disney, all of the food you eat, and everything you do (all of the rides, all of the shows, etc.)…
