This isn’t exactly new though. Many cars that let you interact with them from a distance do so with a cellular connection. BMW has had internal SIM cards for awhile now and they let you do things like unlock/lock the car and set climate temps with an app. Lexus has it as well. Volvo is just taking another step with…

I’m guessing that’s manufacturer vs. dealer because I’ve absolutely purchased a CPO vehicle before (a Volvo) and found out it had an open recall when I took it to a different local dealership...to fix various things that should have been caught in the “inspection” process for making it CPO.

It may be priced similarly to its rivals, but since it isn’t a hot seller some people have been getting excellent lease deals on them. You can potentially get a nearly loaded RC 350 F-Sport with AWD for less than a base 428i lease (and with a smaller cash outlay) or for less than financing a used 335i coupe.

Uh...one of those, the “7 series” isn’t even real. It’s a rendering.

Technically it’s a “chain of custody” issue and it’s absolutely a problem. Handing the phone over to “Apple” would open the door to many arguments against it, which could render the evidence useless. That’s why the request is for Apple to assist the FBI with making the phone unlockable via a brute force attack, rather…

The A8 is aesthetically similar to the A4 and has much higher material quality, just like the 7 Series.

That’s very similar to what I get. I get 11.6 hours every two week pay period but it’s split between vacation and sick (our leave isn’t grouped as a single PTO bank). There are, however, fairly strict rules on the usage of sick leave. If you start using too much of your accrued sick leave (which doesn’t expire) they…

Is your fixture enclosed? Enclosed fixtures let heat build up which can damage LEDs.

I spent about a year having to call TWC on a regular basis because my cable card wouldn’t automatically reauthorize. Thankfully it eventually started working so now I only have to deal with the tuning adapter not working every couple of weeks (which I don’t notice until I realize some programs aren’t recording).

Claiming “research and data” in any comment section, without elaborating on anything, is absolutely pointless.

You do understand that the reverse of that argument works in many places in the United States, right? Why should vehicle owners and people who choose to drive suffer because some people don’t like cars or driving? We need people to drive more so that our cities are car-centric.

You could absolutely blame the person for not properly evaluating the safety of merging or turning across a lane. People who look at an approaching car as a fixed point and judge their ability to merge or cross that car’s path based solely on that car’s distance in an instant are not good drivers. Anyone paying proper…

Maybe that’s why there are so few comments! My work computer couldn’t handle it and the tab kept crashing.

For some, that’s actually an incentive to buy....

FYI, it isn’t just New York. I’m in Wisconsin and got the same notice in my most recent bill. Apparently my price won’t actually change until my promotional period ends, when I’m assuming I’ll be rolled into another promotion...hopefully.

There are only two options to choose between: Amazon and Alexa.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who feels like her voice-recognition has gone down. I thought maybe I was getting lazy with my speech after getting used to using her. Asking her to “disconnect” (a paired bluetooth phone) usually gets me a “Goodnight” response unless I really enunciate.

Someone in my neighborhood does exactly that. Right out their front window, across the sidewalk, and into their Focus. Hopefully no one ever trips and injures themselves late at night.

Unless a person is really tiny, isn’t 2500 a day a really small number for someone doing heavy training? I need to eat at least that much per day just to stay my current weight. If I eat any less than that I’ll start shedding pounds (but I’m also 6’5”).

It’s mid-engine as the engine is between the two axels.
