Yes, but it also has the effect of making people jump, and I prefer a nice mellow rumble to the sharp blasts that a horn has.

I'd say loud pipes don't save lives, since at anywhere near highway speeds all the noise is behind you.

Given how often we've had fires in the house, sticking with just putting it in the pantry doesn't seem like too much of a risk.

Funny that sounds almost identical to my feelings on the subject. Last one had 300,000 on the odo when we got rid of it, and the xc-70 struggled to break 100k. Plus the price for the new ones is just a bit on the high side, the subaru we bought to replace it barely broke 30k while most of the volvos we looked at fell…

It all depends on the volvo. My two experiences include an XC 70 with absolutely terrible reliability, and the other was an older 740, wasn't perfect but it was a fuckton more reliable then the xc-70.

It is amateurish, and hell they could have put racing slicks on it for the cost of photoshop.

Yea, because everyone has an old smartphone they no longer use. Hell I have yet to get a smartphone, since my old rzr still makes calls.

Since they are renting them for 40 cents per mile it might come close to breaking even.

If you watch it to the end he's in the right lane, the video is shot from an exit lane.

Well shit lets also ban motorcycles while we're at it. Since a lot of them don't have windshields either.

But car makers have to a degree designed it so that the factory navigation package also comes with steering wheel controls. I know that on our outback I don't have nice buttons to punch on the radio, but I have a little switch on the steering wheel that I can flick to change channels, or hold to browse up/down the…

Car makers are making cars with a rear window the size of a sheet of paper, genius. Lets make them include a camera to make up for their microscopic rear windows.

I'm personally torn on that issue though. The convenience offered is so great, while at the same time I have to look at computers and consider it from that angle. Do I want to trust a machine that completely when all a hacker has to do is modify the programming a bit? With all the by wire technology now used in modern…

nibbles must have got it.

Probably closer to 300 miles with the 85kwh battery pack, but the 100k dollar car will probably come with the supercharger standard.

Looks like a pickup, so I'd assume that its the tow truck about to remove the car from the store.

Sidewalk?

Well if you look at the bumper you'll notice it starts sagging on the passenger side. But otherwise it holds up pretty well. Still hasn't got anything on a heavy off road bumper, I've seen pics of a car that ran into a jeep with one. Jeep looks fine, like it hasn't even been hit while the car is just pouring coolant…

Damn straight, anything but that awkward claw job they have going right now. Where if you try to grip it in a comfortable manner you're disengaging the reverse shift interlock.

That assumes you live somewhere with horrid tap water and you use a pitcher with a filter built in. Here in fairfax va, you can smell the chlorine when you open the tap and it tastes far better filtered.
