I’ve seen some tastefully modded ones and oh man they are Sexy. That design still holds up.

Helix Auto Works’ YouTube channel has just under 11k subscribers. As of right now, the video has over 22k views. They bought it to make content and get clicks. I don’t know if they’ll end up making money off this gamble, but it’s worth a shot. 

So let me get this straight:

Rimac Nevara: 8.58 at 167.5 ($$$)

ring ring I guess

Narrator:  It did.

I’m pretty sure the Rimac did mid 8's already at a much higher trap speed.

Hydrogen always seemed like a weird choice to power a car. By the time you compress the hydrogen, move it to “gas” stations, store it, transfer it to a high-pressure tank in a car, then convert back to electricity to power the cars motors, you might have just as well used a battery. I think the efficiency is like…

Tesla does not make luxury cars.

I’m not a fan of the Inflation Reduction Act. I think the money could have been appropriated more wisely. That said, companies from the EU, Japan, and South Korea are talking about building factories in the US. Nevada, Texas, Georgia, Kansas, Ohio, Kentucky, North Carolina, Tennessee, etc. are all targeted for…

This post leaves the important bits out. From a Dodge press release:

Colorado/Canyon - nice refresh, nice engine, so-so transmission, can’t get a rear sliding window...

“You don’t take out a loan for an iPhone,”

Recharge time is the keypoint. It reduces the need for as many chargers because throughput at public chargers will be better. It will decrease the amount of battery needed which will reduce weight and improve efficiency. Smaller capacity batteries = lower cost. Lower weight = less wear on tires and roads (and safer…

Maybe they were looking at least efficient EVs in the most expensive electricity areas, and comparing that to a Prius in a cheap gas state.

Uh, what? This smells like bullshit to me.

My Chevy Bolt uses about 29Kwh to drive 100 miles.
I pay .25 per Kw to charge at home. That’s $7.25 for 100 miles.

My gas car gets about 22 mpg combined, for 100 miles that’s 4.5 gallons @ $4/gal = $18 in regular gas for 100 miles.

I have a Sienna and only two kids. Our day to day doesn’t require the third row, but we use it almost every weekend when their cousins come over and it is nice to have when my parents visit and we can fit everyone in one vehicle. I’m also planning to get a hitch attachment so I can tow the Christmas float for the…

The only thing luxurious about a Tesla is the price.

I still can’t figure out why heat pumps are considered a “costly” technology, but air conditioning isn’t. It’s literally the same cycle, just in reverse.  Yes, it means you have to have add a few more components to your AC and size it differently but I can’t figure out why this is somehow a huge financial hurdle in…

This is an old roommates van. He loves it. Great for his family. Granted, is a relatively cheap lift kit so instead of paying a premium on an old van with a lift I’d rather just buy a nice example and do the kit myself.
