Car companies: Nobody wants Sedans, we need to stop making Sedans.
Also car companies: We put all our time/energy into this Flagship Sedan.

If you’re where I live, no-one blames the oil companies. Everything that is wrong is Biden’s fault and gas would be 99 cent/gallon if the guy that can barely walk (let alone ride a bike) was in charge.

The American consumer isn’t burdened by taxes. They are burdened by gas prices.

I’m going to mindlessly blame the driver for reasons I’m pulling straight out of my ass.

I find it funny you decided to criticize unknown things, like what the victim was wearing. You should be able to wear whatever clothing you want and not fear being struck and killed by a vehicle.  For all we know she was lit up like the Times Square Ball.

I’m kinda starting to think that, in regards to our exploding climate crisis, manufacturers would be better off focusing on high efficiency/low power economy cars and hybrids rather than trying to make EVs. Expanding public transit with more EVs would be a better use for the insane amount of batteries that the EV

Ford’s cost to build the Mach-E increased by $25,000 or increased to $25,000? It has to be the latter.

I’d venture to say 70% will be bought by affluent bro types and will see less than 3k miles per year. The other 30% will be repo’d in 1 to 2 years and will be pretty affordable since we’ll be in a recession by then. Not sure I’d want to buy one of those 30% though, they’ll probably be hammered on. Even now, I hardly

ah yes single digit fuel economy just in time for $10 a gallon gas. but dont worry youll be able to finance this for 96 mo at 9% after the upcoming rate hike. throw on the dealer markup and im sure this is a $150k truck no one will be able to afford to drive

600 miles still isn’t practical. Most of us drive 3,000 miles a day, in a blizzard  across Antartica. How’s the mileage at -60°?

This totally ignores the value of your time and wear and tear on a vehicle.

OK, but if it’s a tourist trap, what are they selling? Are they making a ton on postcards and charging people to take photos?

Exactly this. Racing in Europe, where the road in the Alps and Dolomites are much steeper that what we have state side, we see these speeds all the time. Having raced over there personally, we would see 100kph on nearly every descent. If you’re on a good bike and have good skills then what this guy is doing is nothing

I don’t want to be That Guy, but this isn’t actually all that unusual. ProTour riders hit these speeds pretty regularly on long descents.

One might say they’ve been ... Shanghaied

And, for what it’s worth, the current admin’s constant slighting of him remains generally counterproductive to our collective interest in an EV future.

Florida edges ahead of Texas

Way back there was an article here on bollard testing. It was for government facilities against terrorism.

This is why it is pointless to lose your temper while driving. If you feel yourself getting frustrated, take a minute and a few deep breaths, and do it again properly. And if you still can’t do it, call it undoable and go do something else.
