Does the Olds Diesel count when they’re rarely running, and thus don’t make any sound?

The 2ZR-FE, as installed in the 2011-2013 Toyota Corolla (and elsewhere but I’m thinking of a specific car), sounded like a depressed cow.

I have been seeing the Series X in stores a lot more lately.

Why do you think head-on would be any different? Your main point - that modern cars are designed to pass more aggressive crash tests - IS the point of the video, not a repudiation of it. Heavier emphasis on engineering safety into the structure - whether with an overlap test or not - IS WHY THE MALIBU DID SO MUCH…

The movie does imply that Lightning put the “Kachow” in Sally.

They already did in Canada!

Bear high five!

Probably won’t even have to buy a chip. Lots of custom firmware doesn’t require any hardware modification at all to work, just a little bit of ingenuity and a USB drive.

This is your problem here, you’re just assuming this is going to make money based on no evidence.

See, that’s not an argument, there’s no evidence that it will succeed and no successful attempts at implementing it. You’re just taking the wet dreams of an MBA and believing them to be true.

Okay, let’s play, give me a subscription to a pre-installed feature with no updates working. At any point in history.

Well the sensible option in that case is just install it as a standard feature on all models, like Hyundai does - or at least does in Canada, not sure if it’s in everything in other markets.

Here’s the thing, it isn’t the future if I “like it or not” because it’s only the future if the majority accepts it. While there are certainly companies pushing the boundaries of what they can get away with in terms of subscription services, people also push back against it. BMW has consistently tried to map different…

No they weren’t.

Why are mobile phones and all the streaming services different from landline telephones and cable packages?

No, this isn’t the future.

And your point is?

Please read the article.

I don’t think there was anything wrong with sunsetting the EV credit - after a certain point it become unnecessary. What was the problem was how badly it was implemented it. The production target thing punished early adopters and made later models uncompetitive.

Don’t take the Toyopet away.
