Is a straight bench seat even an option anymore on the new Super Duty? If not, it is a sad, sad day.

You have no point. You just keep saying “cars aren’t weapons, durrrhrr!”

I’m amazed it stayed shiny side up.

No friggin way. Asking price is about 4x what it’s worth, and that’s being generous. There are dozens of far nicer bikes of almost any type and any vintage that can be had for $2k around here.

If they sell the GT for 3 years, making 250 a year, that’s still more than 7 times as many new GTs in circulation as McLaren F1s.

You keep telling me I’m dumb, yet you refuse to give a reason why.

Any region that’s hilly will benefit greatly from regenerative braking. No more crawling up hills, and then blowing past everyone doing 90 on the downhills to build up momentum to get over the next one.

It’s not a red herring, I’m talking from a sheer volume perspective. We are consuming fossil fuels at a rate far greater than they’re being generated (which takes millions of years naturally). In order to generate enough power to completely replace fossil fuel consumption, solar cells need to be very efficient in…

There needs to be higher thermodynamic efficiency in solar panels before it becomes a viable global energy alternative.

This is NOT “shifting gears a little,” remember the original F1 was designed to be the ultimate practical road car. Lots of luggage space, room for two passengers, compliant suspension. The original F1 was/still is the ultimate grand tourer.

What does being a purpose-built weapon have to do with anything?? I was responding to SgtFancypants’ question, “why can’t we regulate guns the same way we regulate cars?”

I’d have LOVED to ride in the rear hatch area of a Corvette when I was that age.

Needs more spikes protruding from dash

Consumer vehicles in general cause negligible wear and tear on infrastructure. One fully loaded commercial truck axle (not even the whole truck) does the same amount of damage as 10,000 passenger cars going across the same road.

Tell the EPA to talk to the NHTSA. You can have super heavy, super safe caccoon cars, or you can have super lightweight, highly fuel efficient cars, but you can’t have both.

Yep, I’d rather have a greedy asshole in office than an evil, corrupt and obviously above-the-law career politician.

If it’s under 12 volts, it doesn’t matter how much current there is, your body’s natural electrical resistance will prevent you from getting shocked. This is why you can grab both terminals of a 1,000 amp car battery and not get shocked.

My 1992 Crown Victoria weighed 220lbs more than this.

I thought this stuff was common sense to gearheads, at least.
