Can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic, but the test would HAVE to be conducted under standard temperature conditions, or temperature-calibrated somehow.

Yes.  You go through a worm hole.

No maneuvering required; just bulldoze all the other cars out of the way.

re: “... I can think of no better poster child for an ICE dinosaur than this”

Piper and Cessna used this model, too: Learn to fly in a clapped-out C152, buy a clapped-out C172 to haul the wife and kid(s) around, get a pressurized C210 when you make VP, and a CitationJet when you get CEO (they need a turbine single—besides the Caravan—in the mix between 210 and CJ, though).

Nothing spending a couple million on ‘Agile Enterprise’--or whatever the management buzzword-of-the-day is now--consultants won’t fix, amiright?

11-speed manual.  That’s the ticket.

That’s why I use strictly Whitworth fasteners ... nobody steals those tools.

I never gave this a thought, now can’t unsee—thanks a lot Jalopnik!—but I think Ford did OK on the Mustang (still not sure about that crease):

re: “when I turn the steering wheel it makes clicking noises”

Hope they get their tetanus shots beforehand.

I check my tire pressures--on all 7 cars/trucks and 2 old tractors--regularly, but the TPMS can save your bacon if you pick up a nail or something between checks. 

re: “I legitimately don’t understand the hatred for ALL SUVs and Crossovers.”

I’m a boomer—age 66—and if I get a nap in the afternoon I’m ready to party until last call and beyond (I get a ‘second wind,’ leftover, possibly from when I was a bartender in my 20s). This is a problem, because it gets harder to get a good nights’ sleep.

At least Ford sticks to names: Mach 1, Bullitt, California Special (does ‘Shelby’ count?).  Lincoln finally caught on, too.

Whew.  For once, Ford isn’t on the list (for now).  My ‘08 Bullitt had to have both airbags replaced; IIRC the whole process took over a year (and I was SO looking to rear-end somebody during that time ;).

No mystery; the pilots got lost. They thought they were in the Gulf of Mexico but were really over the Atlantic, and kept flying east. One of the pilots kept excoriating the others that they ‘need to fly west,’ but they kept going farther east, out to sea, ran out of fuel and had to ditch, and either didn’t survive…
