So, the new DEI is the old DEI - Under-educated white men retain all the power.

Ah, but gasoline is going to be more expensive as we deplete the world’s supply of oil - forecast for about 50 years from now. And in the meantime, the price will slowly rise as supplies slowly shrink. You can be sure that electricity has many more sources than your gasoline, so the move to EV’s really is inevitable.

Musk’s habit of building the entire rocket and then launching it to see how it performs is the same as how the Soviets “tested” their N1 heavy lift rocket (the rival to NASA’s Saturn V). Every N1 exploded at the pad or soon after launch. Meanwhile, NASA tested individual components, minor assemblies and major sub-assem…

Good, fast, cheap; pick two. Sounds like Elon is going for Fast and Cheap (it is Boeing, after all). In this case, who can argue with him?

Oldsmobile and Mercury! Pontiac and Plymouth! Studebaker and Packard! Actually, that last one happened in 1954. Look how well it worked for them.

Best laugh of the morning. Thanks!

In Southern California in the ‘60's, the topper you would see everywhere was the Union 76 ball. 

Buy new: 2025 Chevy Trax LT. New car warranty. Lots of room. Latest safety toys. Not fast. MSRP $21,500.

Watch what he does with the FAA. “Those inspectors just get in the way of Boeing MAKING PLANES GREAT AGAIN. And who needs air traffic controllers? They just slow down everyone who wants to take-off and land.”

Hmm. Interesting rant. As for me, I live in the California desert and regardless of whether it’s hot or cold (or both) I warm up the car just to get the tach settled down to a regular idle - about fifteen seconds - then drive off. Seems like a small thing, but it gets the engine lubricated and makes me feel like I’m…

Whether it is due to buggy electronics or underlying mechanicals, Audi is scoring low to very-low on reliability scales from J.D.Power and Consumer Reports. Enthusiasts will scoff at those, but if Audi wants to increase sales, it has to go beyond the enthusiast market. Getting the average wealthy Joe or Jane to look…

I spent ten years on a Bergman 650 scooter and loved it around town and on the highway. If I were younger today (at 71 years) this would be my next bike. But age, especially balance, are not what they used to be, so I’ll only hope that I see a lot of these on the road.

This.  And I hope the tagger is made liable for the additional security now required at the airport.

No, the grifter above ultimately proved to have a heart, a brain and some courage. In contrast to...

Nope. GM just folded its BriteDrop EV’s into Chevrolet because it wasn’t making it as a stand-alone brand. Creating another stand-alone brand for EV’s under Saturn, with all its checkered history, would not be smart. GM doesn’t have the interest in or money to spend on supporting another brand.

“This Twin-Engine Mini Pickup Makes Me Feel Things I Haven’t Felt In A Long Time”  - like when you were 12?

Best price on this is its weight as scrap metal.

Is, was, and will always be the Mazda.

Google phones will be manufactured in India starting this year.  They’re excellent phones with outstanding cameras.

It is indeed difficult to avoid Chinese-sourced products - even food. Check canned and frozen foods at your local super-cheap stores and you’ll find many from China. As for phones, I just learned that Google will transfer its phone production from China to India this year. I have a Google 7Pro and it’s a stellar…
