One metric, electric range, in this case, does not tell a story of “technical superiority.” Engineering is all about making trade-offs, and Porsche has obviously sacrificed range for other qualities.

Interesting. Utah was one of the first states to do an 80 mph limit and the data showed almost none of what this study found. Marginal changes in speeding or injuries and people, for the most part, still just drive 80.

I don’t really have an issue with Jalopnik editorializing a bit—I’ll read it, disagree, and move on—but this reads like the UAW newsletter.

They wonder why so much car production went to Mexico?

“We have full confidence in our union leadership....”

I don’t even know where to begin. “swapped pensions to 401 (k) plans for new workers - saddling workers with three percent of their health care costs”. Welcome to the real world. Do you know how many businesses out there even offer a pension and not a 401k? That’s the norm. And 3% of your Healthcare premiums? That’s…

Not really the right definition of pay “inequality”.

“Everyone wants a secure future where they know they’ll have a job to go to,” she said. “That’s what we are really about. Everyone thinks we’re being greedy and selfish. This is about the ones who are coming after us. We want them to have a future.”

“Antonio needs help, from his agent, from his manager, from his loved ones, from his doctors, and he’s not getting it.”

An incompetent UAW worker? Well I never. 

Pats winning percentage against rest-of-league is BETTER than within their division, FYI

I just crossed shopped a Gladiator Rubicon and a Colorado ZR2 at a few of my local dealers and the Rubicons were $55k to $62k and the ZR2 were $36k to $42k. 

Ah yes, not only one that is proven unreliable, but one ragged on by journalists, through Detroit snow (because of course), raced and abused, and might have run over a small animal, all for the low-low price of a brand new C7 with discounts or a great down payment on a C8.

Have you ever watched him? Met him in real life? I mean I haven’t met him before but its pretty obvious its a character. 

Honestly? No, nor should we. Banning someone for violating a particular service’ TOS is one thing- you are agreeing to play by their rules when you sign up, with the knowledge that the service has the right to kick you out for bad behaviour.

This is a stupid decision. The regular Golf doesn’t sell because VW neglects it and has constantly cut content and styling cues from it reducing it to a very bland- and for it’s segment, overpriced- econobox. And they’re never incentivized. Lease rates on them are terrible.

Oh, they’ll be bringing the regular Golf over. It’ll just be taller, with plastic wheel arches, a pretense of off-road capability, and it won’t be called the Golf.

Please just keep in mind that the last Supra.. in stock form, wasn’t that great of a car. That’s this cars real benchmark.. not the legend the tuned versions have created.

Nice clickbait headline. Not being able to put out a fire isn't all that silly of a reason. Is clickbait really the best we can do now?

They couldn’t at least auction it off for parts? Seems like a silly resolution.
