My sister’s high school team names were the “Richland Rebels,” and yes, they had actual confederate flags as their flags, which would be flown all over i.e. before football games and such. It really didn’t bother anyone.

Hold it, mate, wait just a second! How do we know this carsonist wasn’t just going after him for not driving a Chevy? I mean, there’s at least a remote chance...

Good points. What you (the automotive performance increaser) need is equipment and/or upgrades that are *appropriate* for your setup. Without increased airflow going in and through the engine, what could possibly be gained from a 3” exhaust pipe or cat delete?

Um... you know, my math could be off, but this Mustang only completed 2 rotations. It started on a third, but then the driver corrected out of it before it even turned 90°.

I don’t always root for Mustangs, but when I do they’re surviving multiple PIT maneuvers on the highway while being chased by the police...

(Sort of a slightly late response..) Dude, my first car had 160hp stock, and I thought that thing was screaming! I could peel out man! lol and it’s a good thing that’s all it had otherwise I would have hurt myself bad. My kids will earn their horsepower, that’s for sure.

Congratulations, AdmiralAkbar - you have identified a market principle! THE DEMAND CURVE.

Range is like Bitcoin. You don't need a lengthy explanation of how the electrical infrastructure grid works to use the car. All the consumer *really* needs to know is in terms of range is: how far can I go? and how do I recharge? (And by comparison you don't need to understand the encryption algorithm to buy a burger…

That's what I do. One email address for humans, another one for stuff I don't really want. Okay fine I have like 5 email addresses for different things.

How about this one for the Okies — slowing down to 15MPH at the *bottom* of a hill does not make it easier or safer to get up to the top of it. Speed up slightly when going downhill so you have momentum - then if you use RWD you're much less likely to break traction when going up the hill!

I just start my car up right before I go to bed. Same as the coffee pot. WHO HAS TIME TO WAIT FOR SHIT??

I think that's the break-point. And one that not many people consider. You can get great fuel efficiency in terms of rotating the crankshaft while sitting at idle, but you're still getting ZERO [DistanceUnits] per [VolumeUnit], no matter how efficiently it's idling or becoming.

Another note, you probably know as a tech - modern vehicle computers have an open- and closed-loop operating mode in order to more efficiently use fuel when cold or warm.

Hear, hear! Keeping existing things working is a lot cheaper and more environmentally conservative than breaking them "early" with less-than-excellent maintenance. (I'm a conservative environmentalist. One of possibly two or three on earth...)

Or, in my case with some sort of non-rod knock taking place in the crankshaft, the more oil in the lower parts of the engine the better. Good thing I'm hopefully getting my other car back on the road this weekend!

With good tires and good technique, all wheel drive is excellent. With crappy drivers and/or crappy tires, it's as useless as anything else.

I want these speakers simply because they use "ferrofluid-cooled silk diaphragm tweeters". I would place these in a prominent location in my house so I could explain the ferrofluid-coold silk diaphragm tweeters to all my visitors....

Looks a lot like the Oklahoma earthquake damage.
