There is so much here that is wrong.

You’re under the assumption the drivers are the only problem. In fact, I’d argue Vettel wouldn’t make so many mistakes if Ferrari actually executed their weekends properly. There were many times Vettel should have been on pole in 2018 and Ferrari screwed up. Vettel then felt he had to overcompensate and usually…

I really liked this car. When it was new. And I was 12 years old. Fast forward to 41 years old, and I still think it looks okay (compared to an era where the Juke and Civic Type-R exists roam the roads.) But...135 HP and a 3-speed automatic betray all the go-fast looks. $8,500 is ridiculous - beyond crack pipe. This…

These are rare for a reason. If you’ve ever driven a Beretta, you know.

Except for that whole having won something meaningful in his life thing.

This isn’t going to solve anything. Like it or not, Ferrari needs an experienced driver who has won championships, can develop a car and can mentor a young hotshot. There is no one in this position that is ready to take his place. Give LeClerc a few years to develop, then fire Vettel.

Here’s the fundamental difference between Mercedes and Ferrari, one Binotto needs to address in the off-season if he wants Ferrari to improve. It’s not going to be an easy change because this is inherently ingrained in Ferrari’s culture and part of it is due to being an Italian team that the Italians adore:

An unpopular hot take: Leclerc will never win an F1 title. Fight me.

Everything Ferrari has to done since the late 2000's has given me hope that someday the New England Patriots will go through a similar painful decent into mediocrity that we can all revel in.

Except that even at Costco, it takes a few minutes to go from 0 - 100%. These guys are waiting an hour for 3 cars to get to 80%

I’m so sick of the “my time is worth X” argument always thrown out. That would make sense if people were paid hourly for every second of every hour worked in a perfectly flexible manner but that’s literally not possible so it’s a stupid argument.

This is why it isn’t about range, but charging time. 20 minutes is 15 minutes too long. Get it down to 5 minutes to a full charge, i.e. gas fuelling times, and the problem is solved. That is the edge the electric car needs to be the future.

Tesla VS 2500 (3/4 ton) is a better comparison. The Cyber truck weight and ability does not compete with a half ton truck. 

High strength glass is also terribly expensive.

They were definitely clones. Pretty sure when these movies came out those cars were seven figures.

No, it would not.

Of all the things to complain about with this, high bed sides.

Agreed that it is very attractive, but within the last 20 years, the beauty contest winner from Toyota / Lexus is the LFA.

I get where you are coming from, but they are different vehicles.

This is kind of like asking what makes a s class worth x amount more than a Camry. Truth is from a purely technical standpoint it isn’t. But the people looking to buy this aren’t cross shopping the Palisade.
