Counterpoint: not everyone wants a larger (and heavier) car just to have more power.

Talk about flipping the community the bird...

Actually I think that grammar issue was on purpose, in reference to Zoolander

I just ordered one under the name “Duke Nukem III.”

You ride a 15lb road bike the same way you would ride a 700lb cruiser-counter steering. Most people just don’t realize that they unavoidably apply pressure to the inner side of handlebar when they lean into a corner on a bicycle.

Actually, when you are going fast enough on a bicyle, you use countersteering with that, as well. (Road bike, hauling ass down a big hill... I have seen ~60mph on my bike computer....)

Judging by the comments so far, motorcycle enthusiasts seem to be pretty upset over the idea of some computer controlling their bike.

Yep. I call it the three stage rocket. Stage one and two are Lucid and Faraday. They both burn up. The command module is the Chinese LeEco car.

Its fucking vaporware.

Shell game.

I’ve spent my load on other posts but I will say

I swear that Ford has the top economic minds in the business working for them. They have been able to move from one economic down turn to another with craft and genius rarely seen. They have build a global portfolio that will keep the lights on in any region and their production capacity around the world means that…

Dollars to donuts it’s going to be a 4-banger.

By the time the plant expansion is completed the economy will start to see the first signs of trouble. The UAW will be willing to work out a new contract with lower tiered workers again to keep jobs, Ford will use this to their advantage and make more global models here in the US with the cheaper labor. Win win.

And without any revving sounds, I’m guessing, as well?

On a car with zero lag acceleration.

... in hopes of getting paid

They are all “eerily similar” because in every instance the driver mistakenly mashed down the accelerator.

At what cost? You just named it, it’s $30,000, or about the same price as a nicely equipped Camry.
