It is immoral to use any solid fuel rod nuclear designs for a number of reasons. See: Fukushima, Three mile island, Chernobyl. Weapons proliferation. Spent waste fuel storage.

If there was a serious push behind LFTR or similar techs, well, ok maybe. But those are all decades out and will be facing EV/Solar that has 20…

The oil industry is very very desperate. They know the only practical source of hydrogen atoms is methane.

So they’ll foist these techno-rube-goldbergs to swoon the ignorant public as “radical technology” either as a moonshot to stop EV + Solar, or at least delay it and FUD the political process to slow the transition.

A…

I thought they used liquid oxygen because once you get out of the lower atmosphere (really quickly) you don’t have atmospheric oxygen to react the hydrogen with.

Isn’t the fundamental of the chemistry basically H2 + O —> H2O?

You’re suffering from stockholm syndrome.

Oh, call in the HOA. I disregarded all of your anal property-value-preservation NIMBY white homeowner bullshit logic after that.

The actual solution in all these cases is to whiteflite to some gated community that is guaranteed an HOA.

That way, you can suffer the wrath of a more stringent class of HOA rules lawyers…

Here is the one link to cover “all ICE vehicles with a too much horsepower”

Here is the one link about pickup trucks driving aggro.

See? Our 4097 Tesla hit pieces are fair and balanced! Pay no attention to our rip on Elon at the end, or the unnecessary 500000 words of denial.

That’s not an EV, it’s a PHEV.

Granted, that’s the RIGHT kind of PHEV: a 100+ mile range PHEV.

As an EV though, that is “not even trying compliance cars of the 1990s” awful.

JIT supply chain substantially raises the risk of civilization collapse in the event of large scale disruption (impacts, supervolcano, supertsunami, a “real” pandemic of substantial mortality rate, etc)

This is a high watermark day for jalopnik stupidity and ignorance.

Home built PCs, irregardless of LEDs, are ugly. Cars built as PCs will be ugly.

My non-jeep is soooo much faster than my jeeps! I can’t jeep anymore!

Christ, wait until he drives an EV. Which he would never, because it is not a jeep.

I doubt body panels will ever beat increasingly improving flatbed design. Especially since carbon fiber still sadly isn’t scalable or cost effective.

Carbon Fiber still doesn’t scale, which is a tragedy.

pocket-lint.com? Yeah ok.

Skepticism is well deserved in this area. You have to compete on longevity, cost, cycle endurance, temperature range, power delivery, recharge rate, weight, density, materials, speed of manufacture, and scalability.

Carbon Fiber? Carbon Nanotubes? And nickel is 3x as expensive as copper, cobalt…

This article is literally 20 years too late, and however long this trashrag has been online.

Thanks for nothing.

Whyyyyy isn’t this in Truck Yeah?

This literally is what every truck and suv commercial markets their dinosaur burners as. Oh look! We’re destroying pristine wilderness! Buy this!

This is the epicenter of American Truck Yeah.

Don’t pretend that your audience cares about the environment.

what pays the bills here? Tesla hate and mainline auto puff jobs.

I mean, exhaust highlight stripes when there’s no exhaust, and massive grill when there’s no engine.

Nothing shows how behind BMW is than their design language, really their only distinct selling point in the horsepower wars, is woefully unprepared for…

Coal rollers like you view it as a bonus.

Toyota dragged its feet for almost two decades before making a plugin. Just insanity.

Toyota is in denial. The challenges they cite on “refuelling” are mostly in hydrogen. EVs will charge at home for 90% of consumer trips, have a grid in place for delivery, charge times are sufficient for most consumers, and buildout…

And Lucid just announced a delay, but I agree, they have the Formula-E stuff and a factory under way. Probably will make it to acquisition stage at least.

Yeah if you are at serious “scale prototype to production” that number should be more like 1000.
