I think this is a tough sell. Fuel economy isn’t so much a factor in this segment, but brand image is. I think they’re hoping the buyers of high-trim-level Grand Cherokee’s will “move up”, but the Jeep brand is fairly class-agnostic and doesn’t provide the “prestige” of a luxury-first name. There’s a reason Lexus…

It’s not the automotive industry’s choice to do it like this. EV development is being rushed through because of regulations made by lawmakers who don’t really have any clue what it takes to develop cars. I think if the auto industry had its way, it would transition more slowly with hybrids and PHEVs. And FWIW I’m all…

“Just this morning, the company began offering membership to its metaverse “Alphas Club,””

Its ok to keep saying true things.

Elon rarely acts like a man.

Between 4:59 and 7:46 p.m. on July 29, the tank operator overrode the waste treatment alarms 460 times, or about once every 20 seconds, according to the notice. Another “high level” alarm was recorded at 11 p.m

The article? Excellent, informative and needed.

I’d like to see an email from Kevin Feige addressing this. This just looks bad.

gotta tell you, i turned in my copy the day that article went live. this is a month-long piece that was not influenced at all by magary’s (very excellent and very impressive) article. i’m disappointed you (or anyone) would try to make this a journalist vs journalist narrative rather than commenting on issue we’re…

None of the consumer printers, in my anecdotal experience from the past 10 years. Fleecing is the entire business model as businesses and individual continue going paperless.

Try Scranton, Allentown or Trenton.   Newark is the *worst*

It won’t make any difference where you fly from. All the airlines and all the airports are affected by weather and staffing issues. Getting a broken bird is just random bad luck. I had a 3hr delay on a brand new 737-800 on it’s first revenue flight once due to an oil leak. They smell just like new cars, BTW.

I know you understand what that statement means: the implication is there is no convenient place to install a charger.

I saw one in the wild yesterday. I knew it was rare but not that rare. And I’m in north-central Florida, so it’s not like I’m in silicon valley.

There’s absolutely no way that Tacoma is a legit ad. 

Looks like they updated a BMW M1 Procar

Its about time Asian automakers started going retro with their own designs. The American Big Three (er, whatever that means nowadays) has been selling on retro winga-dinga styling like the Challenger and Mustang for a while now. The nostalgia for the Asian wedge sportscars of the 80s is real, I’m glad someone is…

A woman I know said she felt that the rooftop tent kept her more safe from predators, of both the 4 legged and 2 legged kind.

Man, it’s a great thing that the FTC goes after these anti-competitive practices with the force and fury of an agency empowered and staffed to make sure that near-trillion-dollar corporations can’t bully smaller companies for their own benefit!
