The 72 and 73 were the absolutely worst front ends of any Monaco.  Looks like the rear end of the sedans from those years.   At this price it should be a 68 with a 440.   The problem with this is no matter how nice a 72 is, that money could buy so many better looking wagons.

Any spotter actually yelling “wreck him” should never be allowed on the premises of a NASCAR track again.   A team that has a spotter that does this should be severely penalized because it points to a culture that isn’t part of true racing.

Our company cars are Toyotas and Mazdas, and the adaptive cruise on them keeps hammering on the brakes in winter snow/slush conditions, presumably as snow/slush hits whatever sensors they use.  

More proof that money can’t buy taste.

These motor questions and no A/C turn this into a ND for me.

“Little rust for the year”

Most likely a water heating system. Using the sun for hot water can save a lot of money, and in Brazil it will likely be all you need for the hot water your household would use. 

What surprised me is that the weight on the weight on the 93 shows as 2083 pounds, and the 2024 shows as 2084.  I know it’s a different car but for the newer model to be basically the same weight is very surprising.   I initially expected that to be a substantial contributor to the newer car being slower.

I was going to stick with the FSD letters and call it Full Self Destruction, but unfortunately while I have no problem with the self destruction element, it’s what and whom else they destroy that I have the problem with.

It will continue to drive the vehicle out of sight of the accident so that it can’t be linked to the fatality.  If a human was driving this would be a hit and run, but Tesla will market it as “Insurance Premium Minimization”.

It’s illegal to ride a bicycle on  a sidewalk here (albeit rarely enforced), but if you are a pedestrian that gets injured by a bicyclist on a sidewalk, I don’t think someone telling you that the bicyclist is safe from cars on the road will be a great comfort to them.

The problem is it is promoted as full self driving by Elon, Tesla and their stans. I didn’t say marketed because I don’t think they are actively doing that. However, the promise is, and always has been that this is capable of driving your vehicle without paying attention. It is not and in my opinion, with this sensor…

If it was the two door with a big block it would be $30K +.

If this is the car you want, absolutely NP.  

The strategy didn’t break the rules.  The Mercedes was built underweight, and they gambled that enough weight would remain from tires, etc. that they would hit that minimum and they got caught out.  The strategy resulted in them getting caught with an underweight car.

For many these days there is no right or wrong, just clicks or more clicks.

When he bought it, it would not have been considered anywhere near as valuable as today so it doesn’t mean he was rich, just means he loved the car.

It wouldn’t work.  The people that do this would sit through a class and not internalize anything.   That is one of the reasons that ISO certification has shifted from documenting training to documenting competency.  It is very apparent that providing training classes does not necessarily impart skills or knowledge to…

“head here to peak inside some other dilapidated departure lounges”

And the totally stupid thing is these are 100% software controlled and they extoll the over-the-air updates.  Tesla easily could have done a version of “valet mode” to limit acceleration, but I suspect that even if asked they would have refused because then it would have given renters the wrong idea of a Tesla’s power…
