I concur

I agree

Here on the West Coast, for some obscure historical reasons, the passenger trains have to yield to the cargo trains on the tracks. So the 2 commuter trains going to the Silicon Valley could be randomly stuck on a siding and you’d be 30 minutes late for work for no good reason. And the cargo trains come and go with no…

My tow setup. 2016 Subaru Crosstrek (5-speed manual) rigged with the tow-plate and brake/light wiring behind my Winnebago (4 wheels down, no dolly). Tows great!

Way back in Little League, I was playing third base and took a baseball to the side of the face on a bad hop. It cleanly knocked out one of my my molars, and I remember looking at it on the ground as I stood there in a daze. Even today, every time I feel the missing tooth with my tongue, I remember that day.

Imagine how good that would look with wider wheels and 315 rubber filling out the wheel wells.

I grew up on motorcycles, but have not ridden in many years.

By the way, I forgot to mention (because t seems obvious), this is my state and my county.

Yes, the torn back cover was the only thing left:

In my high school chemistry class we made hydrogen from water.

Ha! I remeber getting carsick as a kid which now means there are prob terrific roads. PA has so many good back roads. Bonus: local cops aren’t allowed to have radar/LIDAR, just watch for the 2 white lines (<- for the out of staters)

The Mid-range Model 3 comes with a 62 kWh battery pack, which means the battery alone still costs them near $12,500. That’s just the battery. You still have to add in inverters, electric motors, cooling system, charging system, etc.

Now, if you go down to a hybrid, the batteries are…

Indeed. Ya gotta rip off that Band-Aid all at once, then don’t do it again for a long time. The company will only keep the bottom feeders under your scenario.

Maybe someone can enlighten me.

For a car like this, McLaren can probably afford to add all the extra sensors needed to implement a Kalman filter with some kind of ride quality optimization, but it is indeed impressive on a production car, even if it’s a super-grand tourer like this McLaren.

Optima control is definitely Kia’s Forte. 

it’s worth remembering that the “New Economy” is really an attempt to reverse the numerous progressive developments which occurred during the 20th Century. Whether you examine unionization, air and water pollution, employee benefits, consumer safety or just about any other significant economic development over the…

I guarantee it’s just marketing buzzwords.  Like Tesla’s “Autopilot”

Makes perfect sense to me, from an engineering perspective monster trucks are freakin’ amazing.
