Having cheaper materials in cheaper models emphasises the difference between lower priced models and more expensive ones.

I have used Sygic for years because it works perfectly offline.

Yeah, lounges have become part of my travel routine. Avoiding the traveling poor at airports is one of the things that makes having a bit of money worthwhile.

This isn’t just about marketing but about people. Give me a car that is sold as having a control system that allows me to drive for 30 seconds without hands on the wheel and that’s what’s going to happen. If the car is not safe to operate in that state then hands-off driving should not be possible.

Do you actually believe that stuff?

That’s because the events were poorly planned out and poorly executed. I am sure that the press conference yesterday was not part of the plan. There was some last minute reason for him having to ‘come back to life’ rather than move onto his new life.

More important: somebody else’s life.

No, it is not just ‘on them’ when there are passengers in cars, pedestrians and other cars on the road.

Tight jeans and a micropenis. Lovely. :/

Some of these systems really do use some form of RFID - at least over here in Europe. I have been doing the drop any card in the slot thing for years, but sometimes, just sometimes, it won’t work without the hotel’s card.

Pity that they don’t know where they live, eh?

Right now these silly cars are being bought by planet savers and tree huggers for whom maths is something they choose to ignore. In order to reach the mass market, the sums do have to work out because once we get past the silly folks who will buy because of ‘feelz’ we get to the mass who will look at numbers.

The guy is not insane. Girard based his very lucrative business on the premise of being the ‘best’ salesman in the world. That’s a claim that he wants and needs to guard. Calling his lawyer was the right move!

The price you pay for your beverages and food in a coffee shop represents your ‘rent’ for your seat and any facilities on offer - even if you don’t use them all. The price you pay for your consumption is the only way that these places have to cover their costs and make a reasonable profit.

From what I see the average person in the USA with a car loan is paying $479 every month. They never own a car, they just rent ‘em - because they never stop paying.

They are beautiful, but they’d better be at around $650 for one, including a controller.

Problem is the power cables running through the car. See that c-pillar cut point sticker? There’s a power cable running through that pillar and, supposedly, there’s a ‘safe’ place to cut. Unfortunately, the sticker was not informative and was hidden. What that tells us is that there’s other places where it is…

Because from the front the car looks OLD.

This story does not exist in isolation. This story has context and motivation. But I am sure that you already know and understand this but find it convenient, at this moment, to pretend otherwise.

Why buy that which should be scrapped?
