“Them Duke boys are at it again. Will Bo and Luke be able to get out of this pickle?”

Unfortunately everything in media seems to have devolved into “hot takes” that are unhinged from reality. I’m sure some sports show is talking about what else Steph Curry needs to do to get into the hall of fame, like it won’t happen already. Ban cars in cities....sure. I guess it worked because I clicked this article.

Torch and Tracy are gone for less than a week and I’m already seriously considering removing this site from my feed reader :( 

On a CAR centric website?

When I was in my early 20s, (1989 or so) a friend of mine had gone to Germany for a few years to work for McKinsey...and moved back rather suddenly. “Hey, Im coming back. I’ll call you when I get to Chicago. It’ll be a few weeks...” 

If I had fuck you money...I would pay whatever for a 190E evo...

im not sure why this isnt more talked about. EV’s can be for the masses that dont care whether or not theyre car is gasoline or not.  Your essential people mover should be an EV.  theres no reason for a Toyota Corolla to be gas powered. But niche vehicles could still be gas powered for the people that want them. …

“how can we in any good conscience continue any promotion of gas-powered vehicles?”

2nd Gear: . . . how in the world are you going to be willing to force consumers into electric vehicles or more fuel-efficient cars?” 

Rather ironic for Erin to write an article casting aspersions on someone else for excusing criminal behavior.

Wake me up when this all ends.

Michael Masi should have used his own convoluted rationalization here as he did in Abu Dhabi....it’s called motor racing and they DIDN’T go car racing. The race and results were trash. Pure and simple. 

I’ll get hate, but here me out, they’re right.

The gray-beard master tech saw me struggling to do that once. He unbolted the front engine mount strut, rocked the car back and forth, and stabbed the parking brake with the engine tilted forward. All three rear plugs were staring right up at me.

Oh, we do have the bridges inspected. They’re usually flagged as dangerous and then just nothing happens.

But Teslas are not rare...? How can you possibly comment that on an article saying they delivered more than 352k of the things?

I used to bartend at what most considered a dive bar in a rich neighborhood. The owner kept prices high because rich people think they are getting something special when they pay too much for it.

Further proof the term ‘luxury’ has no real meaning. 

Just selling a car for a high price does not make it a “luxury” car.

even if it is a stripped-down Model 3 in the end
