He was doing very well

No, the signal only helps to unlock and start the car, if you were to somehow throw the fob out the car down the freeway, the car wouldn’t stop. You just wouldn’t be able to lock it or start it again.

Yeah, the crossover era has been tough on all of us.

I think the issue is that if they don’t grow beyond their current level of sales and profitability, there might not *be* a long term to worry about. Growing volume by broadening your appeal helps get sales you desperately need to survive. As long as you don’t completely abandon what made you great, you can circle back…

Yeah, I do. They’re the ones who are claiming they want to make mature cars. From an autoblog article:

WTF are you talking about? What Democrat?

Are you really going to try to lay this at the feet of Obama? Check some of the dates in this story, which I doubt you even bothered to read.

Excellent piece. Thanks for continuing to shine a light on the issues in Flint, it long ago got lost in the all consuming 24 hour media cycle.

Flint is so unique in the ties it has to the auto industry and most people outside of Michigan don’t quite understand how intertwined GM and Flint were/are.

Mazda: “I Hate You.”

If kind words from car nerds were currency, the lots would be filled with enthusiast cars.

We can’t make Mary Barra kill a guy.

They really missed the mark with the wanting to be sophisticated. All they did was drop the performance, you have to up the luxury for that scheme to work. Plus, you have to build those fun performance concepts ever once and a while to get people in the showroom.

Too true. I was gobsmacked when I read that ‘we only want to build mature cars’ bullshit when asked about a return of the Speed3.

Careful, don’t insult their religion. I once opined that the Tesla was handsome, but not “a real looker” and got run out of Jalopville by EV-ophiles with vegan pitchforks and LED torches.

Did you miss the core of the article that he was mentally ill in your rush to troll or what?

Yeah, he probably thinks he’s the the man for nailing that turn and correcting the tail.

Maybe the question to ask is why police departments like Houston’s haven’t acted on the evidence from videos like this.

I’m not a lawyer, but I wonder what it takes to sustain a charge based on a privately-shot cellphone video? Are there any legal complications resulting from possible chain-of-custody issues, or the…

Agreed. This was stupid and extremely dangerous, but not nearly as bad as I expected it to be.

And now I’m watching Frank Caliendo videos for the morning. Oh well, work’s boring today.

Rivsu imports will do that for you.

She crazy!
