i am 6'5" 290 lbs - not fat, just pro-athlete sized. I don’t make pro athlete money - so coach class it is for me. The last flight i took on Untied had those paper thin seats - not even a long flight - 3 hours.. and my back was killing me for 2 days after.

I often wish for slower intermittent wipers. More often than not, I end up just bumping the stalk to clear a bit of mist from my windshield every minute or 3 because the slowest setting is 2 or 3 times as fast as I want. I’ve thought about wiring in an Arduino that just reads the input from the stalk and skips every…

Yeah, it has been fun messing around with the car to get the best results! My car has a great feature that will automatically adjust the driving mode if you enter an address and use the built-in sat-nav and can even integrate traffic if you have an internet connection for the car. I use it for longer road trips where…

I have an A7 PHEV that has roughly the same electric range and a desire to get the highest possible fuel economy (while still accounting for my fast-ish driving habits) has forced me to completely change the way I drive. My car has full EV mode (the gas engine only kicks on when more than 40% throttle is needed),…

Was the victim or suspect actually a direct employee of GM? The story reads like they were employees of a contractor doing custodial work at the plant. If that is indeed the case, the use of a the lead photo with the jacket featuring the UAW and GM logo is very misleading and should be corrected.

if they can fully automate tractors, they can maybe flip operating hours around.... sit and charge during the day, and run it at night.

The STS and more specifically the STS-V has aged really well.

How does an $84,650 Hummer qualify if the cap is $80,000?  And a Lucid Air?  And a Tesla S?  And a Tesla X?

3rd gear. I’m at a convention this week. Talking to people, the supply chain issues are weird.

What is the problem with you guys? This is necessary in order to bring manufacturing back to the United States. COVID showed us that China can initiate lockdowns immediately and at will, and the lockdowns have disastrous effects on supply chains when most of the western world relies on Chinese exports.

The MX30's range is so poor, Mazda had to update it to “Zoom, Recharge, Zoom”.

If you can bus commute to NYC you are not ‘upstate’.

Just want to, YET again, point out that this is an arithmetic average and as such, is subject to distortion by the relatively small volume of expensive cars.

The median new-car price, that is to say, the price at which 50% of new cars are less expensive than and 50% are more expensive than, is a much more realistic…

I realize you are just picking up the headlines from other news sources, but to call this “Two Delta flights collided while taxiing at Miami International Airport” is a bit extreme.

This is the result of a recall a few years ago, around ‘18 IIRC. Something about the original design of the dual exhaust on the Sport and Interceptor models allowed exhaust fumes to enter the vehicle through the rear hatch and people were getting sick. Ford’s response was to make those downturned tips the standard…

I don’t disagree with your premise, but I believe what you’re describing in #3 is LIFO (Last in, first out). As in, the last people who were hired to the company (23 year old engineers) are the first to be shown the door.

As an owner of a 97 ITR purchased new many years ago I wholeheartledly agree. The last CTR was just trying to hard with it’s boy racer looks. This is a CTR I am seriuosly considering buying so long multitude of fake vents you are not missed at all. Unless you are 20, wearing a flat brimed hat and vaping I would be…

This looks SO much better than the last one. I’m sure there are young students/professionals who could afford the $38-$44k Type R, and liked the look. But for anyone of a certain age (40+ maybe?), it might’ve been the most embarrassing car to be seen in. If you loved anime and Fast & Furious 20 years ago, that’s…

Anyone that thinks their non-Z06 and non-ZR1 C8 is rare is delusional.

What ever happened to personal responsibility? The kid had a history of driving like a jack ass. That’s not Tesla’s fault. The kid would have drove that way regardless of what kind of car he was in. Same with firearm manufacturers, why sue them, because you don’t like guns? Why not file a suit against the alcohol…
