Can’t give you enough stars.

A star for you.

As an automotive engineer that often deals with the studio I shall award you one star as I am unable to give you anymore. I’d give you a dozen if I could because that dialogue is spot on.

Definitely COTD worthy.

My favorite car, wish I never sold it. 2003 Jetta GLI with 24v VR6 and an R32 nose swapped onto it, slammed on Racelands since that’s all I could afford in college. I called it the .:RLI...

I was going to leave this alone until you mentioned the pizza. How dare you mention the pizza. Forget political correctness, we need pizza correctness. Your comment is offensive. Get me to my safe space.

I think you hit the nail on the head. I don’t think it’s so much as “American” or “Big Three” cars selling outside of the US as it is US Market cars. Once you define it as US Market cars I would argue that the issue isn’t with the manufacturers but the average consumer taste. Why would any of the Big Three make boring…

So your issue is more with autonomous vehicles and technology than with being able to remove the wheel and pedals to drive when you want?

I would imagine the failsafe would be if it lost electrical connection (ie electrical gremlin or not being installed and connected) it would failsafe to full autonomous.

But based on this latest fix of the image I’m starting to lean more towards 1960's-970's Charger

Looks like a pre-2015 Challenger.

Looks like a bandaid fix for a poor design to prevent the aerodynamic feature (can’t tell if it’s a wing or just a trim piece) from flexing under load and touching/rubbing on the other carbon fiber bit.

This. So much this.

COTD. Just spit coffee on my laptop...

COTD. Well done my friend.

Great idea and all but it’ll be completely useless when the connected vehicles are immobile on the side of the road broken down from the atrocious condition of the road surfaces...

Cost reduction. Someone got a raise for that.
