As a tool for engine braking in hilly areas, I see a bit of merit. On the other hand, the sport mode in a Corolla hatch rental I used doing the fake shifts was horribly stupid when it could’ve just kept the revs closer to the power band at all times.

Cee-lo is one option, but I think Gotti would do a better job of driving the point home…

Its thousands more and the tech in the case of some brands doesn't work as good as a Toyota or Hyundai. 

yes, it is indeed a good business model.

That’s going to give my company’s marketing team some ideas.

#1 will never happen. These people live in an alternate-reality media bubble. When Trumpster’s policies have cratered the economy, they’ll just blame it all on Haitian Jews working for Obama’s communist deep state.  Even if Faux News disappeared tomorrow, there’s still OANN and Twitter and a million RWNJ podcasts. …

Just like last time!

I hate that the two Musk and Thiel, two of the bigger power brokers in right wing American politics, are both products of apartheid South Africa.

Yes but they’re both raging narcissists, so it’s a high probability that they crash. But we shall see. Is money > ego? 

He will put tariffs on any product he is bribed to, full stop.This will be a presidency where he will not do a thing unless he will personally benefit from it, and the SCOTUS has given him full immunity to do it. He can just sit in the oval office all day asking for, and receiving, bribes from anyone and everyone…

Based on Nissan going Stellantis it is a good metaphor vehicle

Theil owns Vance who will 26th Trump out Jan 2027

Please cite the mandate that that requires 2/3 of all vehicles to be EV by 2023.

Won’t happen. Too much money at stake (between them).

Should be hysterical when he essentially tells Elon to go F himself and Elon takes to Twitter to tell people what a bad dude DT is lol.

In 2022, global fossil fuel subsidies reached a record $7 trillion, which is 7.1% of the global GDP. This is more than governments spend on education annually and about two-thirds of what they spend on healthcare. - International Monetary Fund.

Ironic that so many of the right-wing nut jobs adopted the “Don’t Tree on Me” flag over the past few years and then elected a government that literally by design is planning to talking away rights by the bucketful. IMHO every true supporter of the Constitution, every Harris voter, and everyone with open eyes ought to…

So embarrassed and frightened to be surrounded by stupid racists that literally just voted for the end of American democracy. Trumpublican policies hurt most people. This is a fact. Their racism and misogyny are more important to them than hurting themselves.

Not going to lie I did not like the massive support that the Biden Administration and democrats gave to Electric vehicles. On Conventional Trucks like Volvo VNLs and large buses like Gilligs and the now defunct Proterra. The technology is not there. The range and cost are a joke. I’m more for alternative fuels like…

I love how he bragged about how “beautiful” his renegotiation of NAFTA into USMCA was (even though a cursory analysis showed it would do little), and now he’s threatening to openly violate his own trade agreement because its so awful.
