Alien: “So what does this machine do?

Hard to compete with Bear F***er. This thing was way more funny in the sea of super serious ‘badass’ bikers though.

Yeah it more like giving the driver super powers versus having to take a taxi everywhere 

Isn’t everything?

Pretty sure this is the guy since I didn’t get a picture of my own. Also googling ‘pig scooter’ turns up a surprising amount of dead hogs tied to scooters

“Florida man does something fun, legal, for a change”

Maybe it will start looking like the reverse of all those stereo shops from back in the day but instead of installing better speakers they will disable annoying functions and install aftermarket infotainment systems that let you control everything.

I hate touch screens. I mean I’m even annoyed that the chrome badge on my steering wheel reflects the sun into my eyes sometimes. I’m starting to think I could start a shop that does nothing but simplify electronic B.S.

I think it will be. If for no other reason than at some point these things, like smart phones, will become slow and won’t be supported by the OEM’s. No way the aftermarket won’t fill this demand to some extent.

Congrats to the team on their record.

4th Gear: Am I the only one who looks at some of these new apps and infotainment features and thinks “That’s interesting, I wonder how hard it would be to disable that forever?”

Shut the hell up, Karl!

Not sure but I can almost guarantee it was design

I just want to say I took one for a test drive to kill time while my neon was in the shop. It was insulting to drive. Slow, handled like old hay cart, and felt really cheap.

Also seem to be the official car of the juggalo 

Worked there. Can confirm. As an engineer I still hate the fact you would have to have a huge argument to keep an essential part on the car just because some artsy-fartsy bastard in $50 tshirt decided it didn’t look good.

No way Tesla is THAT efficient with their available raw material. But old Henry Ford would totally do that.

Winner, winner, Currybockwurst dinner!

That’s part of the joke. I wonder if anyone on Jalopnik has had the VW sausage?
