Yes. More like “Chugs it like a Supreme Court Justice at happy hour.”

Yes, I have issues with the headline as well. Nowhere in the piece does it tell us why it runs on gas, just that it can run on a variety of fuels.

I believe one of the reasons they went with stainless steel is that it’s so stiff that the truck would need very little in the way of a frame underneath it. It would be like an exoskeleton, so it was supposed to save time and money from producing a complex unibody built up from sheetmetal.

Of, if you plan to actually use it as, you know, a truck, get a Ford F-150 Lightening. It’s got the same bed as the gasser F-150s, so the substantial number of aftermarket products available all fit the Lightening.

You’d think that, but Elon also stuck with the Falcon Wing doors on the Model X, even though they are expensive, unreliable, and probably add about 200-300 lbs to the vehicle over traditional doors.

The only way that bus was doing 90 was downhill with a tailwind. Or off a tall cliff.

And the Model 3 was supposed to be the Model E, but Ford already had the trademark on that.

I think we’re just talking about the current invasion. LoL.

I’d like to point out that the Russian invasion of Ukraine actually occurred in 2022, not 2021.

Eh, I have adaptive cruise control, and when traffic slows or comes to a stop, there is definitely not enough room between me and the car in front of me for another car to just swoop in. Now if you’re moving at speed, yes, leaving 2-3 seconds between cars allows other cars in, but I find I don’t really care because I…

The Rav4 hybrid effectively took the Prius V’s place in the Toyota lineup.

With Tesla, you have your pick of dealbreakers: No instrument panel on Model 3/Y. Weird door handles on...all of them. Center screen used for too many functions. The steering yoke. NVH worse than a Corolla at 60mph. Early Model 3s dumped water from the trunklid into the trunk...

Car and Driver actually did that as a project car.

It was slightly cheaper for a hot second until Toyota just slightly decontented the base Prius and lowered the MSRP so it was juuuust close enough to the Insight that most buyers wouldn’t care.

Also, unless you were racing jockey, the interior was incredibly cramped and full of things that intruded into the cabin space in weird places. Like the door-mounted cupholders.

Eh, it still sells well enough. I’d imagine most families don’t need to remove the second rows all that often. And IIRC, the second row does a decent job of folding flat against the front seats.

Yeah, but you’re gonna see some serious shit.

Didn’t they eventually put a balance shaft on it?
