One of the reasons I’ve been sad that Mercedes cars have sucked so bad lately is that when their cars were basically equal, Hamilton was the one driver who could completely frustrate Verstappen’s tactics. Though to be far at one point the only reason he survived Verstappen’s over aggressive style was the Halo device.

One would expect Ford to better at this since they have been making pickups for decades. Instead they are rivaling Tesla for recalls.  

How does one company have so many recalls, year after year after year, stay in business? Seemingly every single vehicle they produce for the last 15 years has been recalled

Man Ford is at another level. Not only the most recalls, the most dangerous recalls. What a shit company. 

I’ve had dogs almost continuously for my whole life. I have three right now. They stay home unless we’re going someplace they’re going too. I don’t bring them along for the ride because being kept in the car is dangerous and they’ll wreck the interior. Your dog is not a fashion accessory that you need to display.…

Or hear me out, you don’t NEED to bring your dog everywhere you go, service animals excluded. If you are going somewhere that doesn’t allow dogs, leave it at home. If you are just popping into the gas station for literally a couple of minutes, assuming you have been driving and the inside is cool, crack the windows…

Sure, and at that point, yell and scream all you want.

Eh. Software will always have bugs, and hardware will always break. At least, while humans are designing both.

I loath Tesla and Musk, but I give credit for the vehicle being smart enough to alert the owner when the feature wasn’t working as expected.

If someone had a dead dog because the system broken down and they…

“your headlights will blasting right back at you.”

GRCs are nice, but best hot hatch of all time is stretching, a lot.

This conversation is almost monthly on Jalopnik. Yes, Tesla’s market share is going to get smaller because the market is growing thanks to competition. 

Eh, I don’t like it, but it’s his to do with. 

Was it an EV?

And nothing of value was lost. 

“Please don’t do this”

Eliminate the dealership sales model entirely and only have test drive showrooms. You go to a showroom, test drive the model of the car you want, and then place your order via a portal that eliminates the sales and finance staff entirely. This should be a straightforward, simple process, instead it’s filled with…

I get that he’s no longer liked, but can we get past the endless criticism and hatred of all things Tesla? Not saying change your attitude, just get past it. I bet if people didn’t love hating Musk, the Cybertruck would be the coolest thing on the road.

Hulk Hogan happened.  Look it up.

Curious what the list of bad things are, besides it being associated with that guy. As a driver of one for 6 years, most of the stuff people talk to me about they’ve heard is bad simply isn’t factual. (Like that there aren’t physical controls for the wipers: there are)

Someone woke up today with a bone to pick with some bones.
