The one in the article says hydraulic, so no worm gear. There are scissor jacks with electric drives, so a good old worm gear for them.

For such a square vehicle why does it look so bad in Lego

I got the Audi Sport Quattro S1 for myself. It’s glorious.

It was the drivers. They usually don’t watch out for you on a well lit day. Even with my lights I’m still wary of them. I usually run and ride early morning because the roads and sidewalks are emptier. On weekends I’m out by 6 am at the latest in the fall and winter. In the summer I’m usually out by 5am.

I got lights for the early morning rides. I took a ride in the dark once and said never again. I feel like my bike can get me through light snow but I only bought it back in June so haven’t had a chance to test that theory out yet but I’m sure I’ll get a chance in the coming weeks. Luckily there’s a path I can test…

1st Gear: I think we can cut Mary Barra some slack here. Her job is to advocate for what’s good for GM, period. She is going to saddle up with whoever is in office out of sheer pragmatism.

Train Wreck happening in Real time. Waiting for David to start offering advice

Don’t come in here with all your critical thinking! 

Banning ICE cars is one of those things that’s easy to say and makes for a good sound bite. The ban is always far enough in the future for the politician, they never have to worry about actually implementing it.

That Corolla in the background is like

If we're being pedantic, the Taycan actually has a two-speed rear axle that shifts gears automatically. 

Can confirm, all Porsche cars have very tight pedals... as they should be. Distant pedals are an abomination.

There’s no way this is a daily driver for that whole time. Parking tickets happen sooner or later, especially in cities.

Sean Connery: I’ve got to ask you about the Penis Mightier.

Hey Bim, guess what... 

It’s comments like this that have killed affordable performance cars.
