Yep. All those plants GM shut down? Most of them aren’t on the real estate market (only two of them were up for sale last time I checked). Maybe they’re just waiting to buy out Tesla and retool so the electric vehicles can be manufactured in a real automotive factory instead of the haphazard nonsense and TENT Tesla…

I suspect that even zombie Lee Iacocca would do a better job than Musk at this point. I see a big part of Tesla’s problem as being the endless “software update” model of feature introduction, rather than relying on the industry standard model year concept. Another problem is that every Tesla vehicle assembled is “full…

Why not just tow around a contractor’s 8 kw generator and save the bed space for something else?

Your math is fine, but for a single error. You left out the range cost for the freezer. You know full well, these people will offer a freezer in their electric vehicle, rather than thinking for a moment they could save range by forcing buyers to lower themselves down to using a ice filled cooler.

How much range does does the average campsite dinner cost? I notice it uses a pair of induction burners (electric) rather than the camp standard propane and no extra battery capacity.

Shouldn’t the headline be “When David Tracy Has a Jeep Fever Dream”?

Only times I don’t check the side view mirror before opening the door is when I park in my own driveway or when I park in a parking lot. And If I door check you in a parking lot, you deserve it because that means you’re riding around like a disruptive a-hole looking for trouble. Which happens frequently in the last…

The real story here is that Epic’s storefront is sorely behind the times. The back end programming is “all or nothing,” where everything is on sale or nothing is on sale. Those who don’t participate have their products shut off and unavailable for the duration of the sale. This is the way of retail site design circa…

Toilets forced by law to use less water in a single flush again get their revenge. Those low flow/low water volume toilets are fine for urine, but once you have more solid business to deal with, they fail.

Nothing like using that very last paragraph to scream at us “I’m a poser who hasn’t spent a single minute of my life flipping through a comic book, let alone reading one!”

Huh. This went so under the radar I hadn’t even realized there was yet another new tick series, and I am a Tick nerd (bought into all the comics way back in the 1990's!). Well, at least it is complete so I can binge watch the whole thing.

.... I just want to see one damned photo of that thing with the doors open, because they don’t look like the gull wing or scissor types. Such an immense amount of interior space was lost to that body design...

I gave you a star for totally living up to your nick. LOL

Thing is, upgrading the suspension was never this moron’s aim. It was all about getting a “fresh look.”

My back seat floorboards get like that from time to time. It is a long and busy week for it to get like that, though. And no matter what sort of waste storage contraption I try, none of them really does the job well in a motor vehicle... Except that huge box I had in the front passenger foot well. That worked wonders.…

It is far, far more complicated than that. They patented certain genes. They then sued farmers near their test facilities because cross-pollination occurred due to either natural travels of bees they were using or the wind blowing pollen in just the right direction. And it should be noted that A LOT of the genetic…

Color me unsurprised. New neighbors moved in. They use roundup like heavy-handed, stumbling, drunken priests sprinkling the holy water. In that time, I have had three dogs in a row die of cancer. They were the first dogs we’ve had die of cancer in the better part of 60 years of consistent multiple dog ownership…

So... Moral of the story is “when the plane is stuck on the tarmac for hours, the crew gets just as grumpy as you. But remember that they can call the law on you for being snippy, but not the other way around.”

Totally off topic, but it just dawned on me... Might be time for people selling used cars to declare when they’ve been used for Uber and Lyft, just like they’re supposed to inform you a vehicle was formerly part of a rental fleet or government motor pool.

Ah, man, that first photo... I see a turretless British Ferret and a Soviet era BRDM-2 and get jealous all over again about how the Brits can own and drive military armored vehicles mostly like they would regular cars.
