Commandeered?

I fly a King Air so I’m familiar with the process. It’s the rapid rate of change that causes problems, so if the cabin wasn’t pressurizing it wouldn’t be a big issue as they probably held at a lower altitude to sort things out. But if they climbed quickly with the cabin altitude still high I can see now how that would

This doesn’t make sense. If the cabin wasn’t pressurizing, there would be no cabin differential (difference between cabin pressure & outside pressure) so how did the eardrum damage happen? Unless the cabin did pressurize then there was a rapid decompression?

But even most drivers of electric Ford and Rivian models do not yet have access to Tesla chargers because the companies have not received enough adapters from Tesla.

I truly believe this is a significant reason for the current growth decline of EVs in the United States.

He is not an engineer, and never was

Do we tell him now, or let him find out from the Ukrainians?

Speed has never killed anybody. Suddenly becoming stationary, that’s what gets you.

Speeding is dangerous! Speeding is one of the most common driving violations and one of the leading causes of all fatalities in the road.”

EV sounds trying to be anything other than what they are are the absolute worst trend I can think of. A loud ICE exhaust, whether is sounds bad (most of them) or good (very few), is at least the result of modifying sound waves generated for a practical purpose - propulsion.

I’m just trying to figure out how much Disney would charge me for them to build me these sounds for EVs

Or... you could stop being a prick about people’s personal likes.

First of all, your screen name is terrific, so you get a point for that. And then you’re completely right on about Saab...I came here to post exactly that, but you beat me to it. Nice. And yes, having as little light inside the cabin is the best possible situation for night driving. So, if the author is a city boy and

All of the real data proves otherwise. 

25 year old here raised on the internet. Drove a Tesla for a month and wouldn’t go back due to the touchscreen. Aren’t any buttons in my Mk7 GTI I don’t use or make it feel cluttered. I love Carplay, but would hate if I had any larger of a screen than I have.

Ragebait will definitely get you clicks, but well thought of articles can too. I remember Jalopnik used to have some really good interview articles and investigate articles. Can we get back to that? I feel like the only reason I'm still here is the comment section and it's a hot or miss if that is even working.

You are just wrong. ANY extra interior lighting is going to cause your pupils to dilate more than they should and diminish your night vision. This is just science and not up for debate. A car interior should look like this at night, and I’d even say that they have the gauge brightness a bit to high even here.

Now I’m upset because this concept looked absolutely amazing! Maybe just shorten the front air dam and that was it.

Wait, are you trying to tell me that a private equity firm acquired a company then ran it into the ground? Crazytown.
