Yeah, I just don't see it... looks too 'Charger-ish' to come from Lincoln. That said, you're right, they are going down and might as well throw a hail mary but given the decisions they've made up to this point, why even bother with a valid business model now? I'm sure they'll continue to make the same mistakes they…

You must not know how management works. Granted, these developers may not be the best in the industry, but it falls on management to make sure their developers are producing a quality product on time. When games flop like this, 99% of the time it's due to the fault of management not doing their job and not the 'lazy…

It's pretty fucking hard to make a video game, ya know...

If the developers did manage to sign a contract with royalties (which is unlikely in the industry these days) they would continue to collect checks for those royalty amounts, despite losing their jobs. They just wouldn't get their annual salary anymore.

I'm curious... how much would a full restoration on a car like this run you?

Alternatively, a nice 2009/10 Skyline GT-R could be picked up for that kind of cash.

Hah, Sunhawk beat me to it. If Jalopnik ran the country, we would have funded a project to cut Florida off long ago. IMO, a better use of all that bailout money...

No. Because Audi RS5.

For us, the value of unions has come and gone. There was a time that they were valuable and helped us move into the modern working age but, in the 21st century, unions simply cause more problems than they solve. Further, they negatively affect one of the foundations that our economy is built upon - the free market.

My main issue with this is it doesn't look like a Lincoln, at all. Now, from a design perspective, that's not a bad thing because Lincoln's haven't ever been appealing in my eyes. That said, this would be a massive risk for Lincoln just because of how different it is from everything they've ever offered. Now, if…

Whoa, whoa, whoa... let's not jump to conclusions here. This is the internet, after all.

Sure, I can understand that, but I'd still argue that you're better off providing the driver with the tools to avoid an accident altogether than to increase the probability of an accident but improve the car's stability in said accident. Of course, sometimes accidents are simply unavoidable and no window, no matter…

Right, but trains are on set schedules and so the freight often sits around waiting for the next CA to NY train, which could be days. Even then, it will still have to be unloaded and re-loaded onto some kind of wheeled vehicle for final destination delivery.

I'm all for it, but we would need to increase the drivers training and testing before I'd feel comfortable with all the asshats who I share the road with driving at what they feel is 'reasonable'.

I hate trucks as much as any driver, but they do play an important, and irreplaceable function in our nation's economy. You're right that rail is a cheap way of transporting goods, but it's slow and can only deliver to the nearest train station. The trucks are still required to load from the train and deliver to…

Banked corners.

Finland proves it works, yet we haven't made any changes to our driver's training... we are smart.

Having not heard of Taki before this article, was "...but my right hand still works" something he said in an interview after this race?

So true. Everyone forgets [or doesn't know in the first place] just how impossibly difficult it is to drive an F1 car at speed. From everything I've gathered, it's scarier and more difficult than you can possibly imagine and just something you have to adapt to.

Agree on both points. Why all the plastic and sharp lines on the front? That makes no sense, given the rest of the car. Regarding the poor visibility out the back, it's hard to believe this is still an issue in modern cars. I understand wanting to make it stylish, but you don't sacrifice the driver's situational…
