Sadly they recently redesigned. No forward control for you

if the death wobble is fast enough it just becomes a buzz.

yeah i think the Daily Mail article had that he stopped, didn’t see anything. Then came back later to get the car because it was too messed up to drive home. I vaguely remember there being a police check as well inbetween that didn’t find anything. It’s the AG and the sheriff so maybe take it with a grain of salt…

I find your ideas intriguing and wish to invest in your SPAC

Ok so lets say you’re an aspiring hydrogen fuel cell vehicle maker.
You’ve got the whole drivetrain and now just need a chassis to put it in.

Needs to be something somewhat practical (4 seats +) and preferably from a defunct automaker.

maybe a matra rancho?
or a laforza as a halo car

of course there’s always saab

Check out nuuve, once you have a big battery like that you can sell services back into the grid. I’d probably skip the roof mounted panels since schools are putting up big arrays anyway. If you really want ot you could put up solar carports in the bus depot and keep them out of the elements a bit. 

WTF? Very smart people have been telling me for 20 years that hydrogen is the future and now these assholes are buying charging companies?

Do you realize how much money I lost shorting Tesla? 

Think of it like the transition away from the horse.

Avid equestrians still have horses and enjoy them but the cities are no longer filled with manure and dead animals.

In the same way we’ll always be able to buy gas but the type of person who doesn’t know how to check the oil won’t have to anymore.

Yeah there’s a proper term for this already, peak demand. 

There’s a great Yves Morieux TED where he talks about taking the development executive and telling them their next job will be to manage warranty costs and how that solved a lot of problems

Does Chrysler even make 38 different cars? 

Meh, Plenty of states with democratic supermajorities and growing cities that could raise their gas taxes if they had the will.

Cranking up the federal gas taxes on places doomed to car dependency like Wyoming to make people in San Diego ride bikes seem like a pretty scattershot approach.

Whether or not states could…

eliminate the light truck CAFE category.
I’m not sure why a wrangler needs special treatment when it comes to fuel economy (ok I do know, it’s Ohio’s electoral college votes)

honestly considering the fate of the Avalanche and Baja I don’t think that’s much of a mystery. And cars take years to develop, a structural element like that is not just something they could throw in at the last minute. 

The thing about empty places is the kind of people buying new cars typically have a garage. I really can’t think of anywhere in the US that’s unreachable by EV at this point and my EV’s range kind of sucks by today’s standards

I’m using the tesla map as an example but EA’s really not far behind (6months maybe, 12…

I honestly don’t get the level of secrecy around this.

There are companies out there who’ve shown the design years before the car came out and nothing happened. Just look at the Hummer EV or Rivian R1T. Are we expecting it to crater because people saw it 2 years before you could buy one?

I could kind of understand…

The really weird thing is how this works in reverse.

I got a model S back in 2016 and instantly was the “Tesla guy” at my office and it was most of what people wanted to talk about since it was the most visible different thing about me.

This was a bit depressing. I’m not the worlds most interesting man but seriously…

it becomes jalop once its lost half its value (at least) 

Idk, that sounds more like autoblog.

jalopnik was always about older (but not classic) cars (just look at all the rusty cherokee content or NP or {i forgot the new name} )

sure there’s the skaybait and the supercar drool that was the exception, not the rule
