Those are the automakers who were willing to publicly support the policy, given how much lead time manufacturing plans need I kind of figured they were all just going to keep going with the standards anyway. We still don’t know what was said at the Barra/Trump meeting last week.

I’ve had the same question for a while now, though I think one thing in that article helps explain it a bit. Automakers have already started spending on developing vehicles to meet those emissions levels, so if some newcomer were to swoop in and way undercut them by meeting “the new minimum”, the big guys would…

EDIT: Whoops... went down wrong train of thought. NVM.

2nd Gear: “The only reason the White House is doing this is because the California Air Resources Board struck a deal on fuel economy standards with Ford, VW, BMW and Honda that rebukes the White House’s attempt to freeze standards at the 2020 level until 2026, a move that even the automakers don’t want because they’ve…

Second Gear:

Original motor or bust.

People who think addiction is just about will power piss me off. I’ve got some experience with addiction. Fortunately, opiates were never one of them. I’ve taken them for weeks on end after surgeries, and even not after surgeries, and stopped without ever getting a craving. I quit cigarettes without much trouble too.…

I’d been on them before, and at that time had been given Dilaudid and Fentynal. I understand their efficacy, but you can fuck off with the “scared by the boogieman” bullshit.

> I was too scared of them

I was prescribed Percocet after an ACL repair and I remember feeling AMAZING! Like Jesus Christ! Is this what it means to feel HIGH??? Why isn’t EVERYONE getting this shit??? This stuff is GREAT for my chronic depression!!! I love almost EVERYBODY!!

Maybe if you didn’t wear 4-6 shirts to bed you would not sweat so much at night.

They have steel sleeves as Rootzle2 pointed out. However, there instances where you can get a crack in the aluminum block behind the sleeve.

Im surprised no one mentioned Jag as well. Especially since they wrote about how they’re going for well below sticker not too long ago. Love those Polestar wagons, wish last gen had a better infotainment system though. 

Because if you’re spending $80k you’re not buying “met their needs and provided a great driving experience”. That can be had for half the price.

As I was reading, I was thinking to myself, “6 GC? Cool car, but not a wagon...” Then I saw the picture. I was shocked a little bit. It definitely works... as long as you don’t mind looking at it...

We love love love loved our Allroad, but are thinking about moving to something different, because as my wife says “there are just too many Allroads in our area and I want something a little more unique.”

Wait, you can’t just bore it out?

Facts ^^^ Thing 100% had a head gasket failure and somewhere along the line someone thought it would be a good idea to throw a bottle (or 5) of liquid headgasket repair into it. That shit will ruin a motor.
