LOL. Yep, that was my experience, too. Felt like 15 hours driving across plains, 5 minutes through the mountains and then ‘WTF is a desert doing here?’ No wonder they had almost no problem legalizing recreational pot use.

In other words, “Tesla Trucking” will fail because Elon Musk was oblivious to the need for “Tesla Nuclear Power” to meet the recharge demands, because there’s now way the grid as it exists today will every meet the demands of a relatively small number of those trucks, even if they did bring all the old coal power…

There are all sorts of solutions that haven’t been tried. Like regenerative braking on all five axles instead of just focusing on the truck being the end all, be all “locomotive”. Even your suggestion still follows that pattern - truck as locomotive, trailer as passive cargo.

If they did that, take a moment and make a wild guess about one of the first things that will be tagged by graffiti artists. Also, guess what one of the first components to be damaged by vandals or stolen by scrappers would be. Unfortunately, simple or straightforward solutions are rapidly becoming a thing of the past…

Nobody noticed. At the start of the video, you see a deroofed railcar halfway under the bridge, meaning the jerk in the locomotive backed up so he could try again instead of his lazy ass poking his head up off the back of the locomotive to see the carnage first and backing up.

Problem there is the only fascist to self-identify as a fascist was Mussolini. Then again, he did invent the name for the political concept while he was still a ‘news reporter’ many years before he managed to get himself elected. Hell, the Nazis called themselves socialists just like many of the Communists did. And…

Looks like a mismatched pair of battered ski boots.

I think you need to start that whole bit of wondering by asking yourself why you think this guy has a valid license.

As far as I am concerned, having lost a wife and unborn daughter to a drunk driver more than 30 years ago, I still feel the only suitable punishment for these sleazebags is to run them over with their own vehicles, then drag them behind until they are not just dead, but unidentifiable chunks of flesh scattered on the…

This herd of drama llamas needs to be culled.

Too big. Go Kei Truck instead. A Honda Acty looks nearly identical, but it more than a meter shorter.

“Hey, my pickup may be small, but I’ll always be able to find a parking space easy and I will always have more tailgates than you.” :P

I used to play DooM on my Sansa MP3 player.

EVs lose on a lot more than just range. I can fill my gas tank in less than 5 minutes and drive nearly 450 miles. Recharge an EV for 5 minutes and you’ll be lucky if it can go 30 miles. And I can find a gas station far more easily than I can any sort of recharge facility. Hell, in my neck of the woods, I can find NG…

That’s weird. How on earth is Tesla selling so many vehicles with messed up panel gaps in Louisiana?

Not just you and... They do remind me of the flusher handle on a toilet.

So silly. You’d think nobody here has ever seen an automotive jankstrap before. This is like my Taurus coming from the Ford factory with 27 lbs of electrical tape installed on the wiring within the cabin.

A lot of the lengthy breakage can be chalked up to office politics and shenanigans at Cartoon Network itself. So much godawful BS goes on, it is a wonder the channel survived to 2000, let alone 2020.

Her building a plane of her own was more a function of wealth than gender. The same holds true today.

Forget just Kias and Hyundais. Everyone should check via VIN if their vehicle has had any recalls for anything, no matter how old the vehicle is. I bought a ‘94 Honda Accord when it was new. It wasn’t until that whole Takata airbag recall fiasco that I ran the VIN and discovered it had been recalled repeatedly over…
